Default Psu?

Which powersupply should I get?

This or this?

I like the idea of adjustable pots, but the X - connect looks great too. What are your thoughts?

I would go with the Fortron because Fortron PSU's are kick ass and relatively cheap. If you want the bling then go with the X-Connect.

X-Connect. I've got it and it's the most kick-azz power supply I've ever seen.

If I were to go with a Fortron, I would go with this as it has ActivePFC in addition to adjustable pots.

I would not however go with the Fortron, because the voltage rails on the X-Connect are superb
by default, voltage flux is less than 2% between idle and full load, and it looks awesome.

Think HQ + Aesthetically appealing.

Fortron's are however, great for closed cases where the pretty Ultra and it's fancy cables will not be seen.
