Stability is everything. Do not want to learn the hard way.

If you want stability at good price go for FSP Fortron Blue Storm II 500W, the most stable PSU on +12V rail on the market for 80$

I have that exact same PSU. OCZ may not be the best, but its one of the good brands. But in this case, since its only $5 more, i'd go with the Corsair. Either way, you're probably not going to see that much of a difference.
