Both Tom's Hardware and Anandtech test the standard Truepower model.
Anand's 4 power supply test reached this conclusion:
Overall, the Antec TruePower provided the best all around performance. Feature-wise, it could not compete with the Enermax EG465 or the Vantec Stealth Aluminum, but the...
Sli provides flexability. I bought one of the first A8n's sold in the US. At the time the 6800GT's were not available. The plain 6800's were over $350 each and I decided to buy dual 6600gt's for $170 each. When the 6800GT's/6900GT Ultras came out, people scoffed at sli and my dual 6600gt's...
I dwelled on the same ones you listed. It is not much different than the Antec you listed other than:
It has dual fans that run sequentially based on load. The EPS12V format also means dual 4-pin/8-pin ATX 12V connectors for both standard motherboards and newer dual-core Intel boards. This...

Real men don't have disco cases with clear cover panels. They pop the hood to show off the engine anyway. Nice, classy and professional job. True craftmanship.
I posted this a while ago on another thread using the NB47J on an A8n-Sli in an Antec Sonata case. Never got an aswer though:
Using a non contact infa red gun my zalman nb47 reads 136 degrees f and 57 degrees c. Is this ok?

Sonata case here. I found the chipset ran very hot to the touch. Installed a vantec stealth front fan to blow accross the chipset. Overclocking 10%. Motherboard temp now runs below 44 C. Very quiet. I'd use a front fan to be safe.

Having an old version on XP and a NQC Maxtor made my initial attempts frustrating. Once i pitched the maxtor everything else was pretty standard troublshooting. Now this is one of the most stable boards I have owned. Only overclocking 10% though. Waiting for non beta bios for stable...

Thanks to this board I ditched the screaming demon and installed the Zalman ZM-NB47J. I did not really noticed any temp difference (39C) even when playing games.

You will have plenty of connectors. The 20 pin main hooks to the 24 pin mobo slightly offset. It should slide on easilly. I was stupid and forced it on to match the latching mechanism. It slid on ok but did not boot up. Fortunately no damage.
Wish I can help you, but my system is 100% stable on everything except UT2004 I get the blue screen also most the times when exiting the game. Only seems to do it when playing multiplayer. Ok with single player.
