Are kingwin power supplies okay? (I know they probably don't stand any chances against brands like antec and corsair)

Ocz and NZXT are better quality brands. Would say it's about the same as cooler master. Still wouldn't buy from kingwin

OCZ is the same exact parts. But somehow better quality. Real funny man. NZXT, can't comment on them for sure.
Kingwin are Super Flower units rebranded, and are okay quality.
Don't use them if you don't want to, but they are fine units, and certainly not worth the rap that smile is giving them.

What models OCZ are made by Super Flower? Most are made by HEC/CWT/Cirtec/Great Wall/FSP and Topower. Some OCZ are ok, but I would not buy one. As far as Kingwin, depends on the model.
Some are, some are junk.

Well my rig is:
i7 950
400gb 7200rpm hdd
gts 250 512mb (I'm going to upgrade it in the future)
9gb hyperx ddr3 1600mhz ram (6 sticks)
msi x58m motherboard
one dvd burner
I think I already found a perfect one and its Antec EarthWatts Series EA-750 Green 750W, but if you have a better idea go ahead and share it

So what, dead end comment. Some Kingwin are ok units, some are junk, depends on the model. You said I would buy (one).

Depends on where your buying it and the price.

As far as I know, there is no company on the planet, be it electronics or not, that always provides a quality product. You can not always just say Its corsair so its good, or its Edelbrok so it is quality. Every company has trash parts.
It is not a dead end comment. And the fact of it is, they make okay parts. Much the same was as coolermaster. But y'all make it out like that OEM computers, and lesser quality PSUs are the end of the planet. And it is not true. They are less safe, but will do the same job just fine.

750W is kind of overkill. Any quality PSU around the 500/550W range would be enough for you.I think I already found a perfect one and its Antec EarthWatts Series EA-750 Green 750W, but if you have a better idea go ahead and share it
Blah blah blah. You made a open end comment, that you would by one. Then use the excuse that all companies can make lower quality parts, which in itself contradicts you saying I would by one.
Kingwin has Super Flower make power supplies. Super Flower has no problem making junk or mid range power supplies to Kingwin Spec. Thats why some are junk and some are ok. Other manufactures like Seasonic/CWT and other will not make junk just to satisfy a OEM. So your comment may be true with some manufactures but not to all.
I would get one with alittle overhead, just for later upgrades. See no problem with a 650/750W range.

1. I would buy one. Not openended. I will buy one if I need one.
2. Not can, all companies DO make crap components. Does not matter the company, the time period, or the price. There is no company, be it CWT, Seasonic, Dell, Exxon, or any company you want to substitute in here. They all make junk, and it is always luck of the draw.
