Think about it...
How would the PSU know what it is powering?
Something needs 12 amps, be it a CPU, Video card, a hamster...the PSU sends it.
1) excellent voltage regulationOriginally posted by: bigstrickler
So what do you look for when buying a good PSU...
Earthwatts 430/500I need one to power a quad core, high end video card, 2-4gb ram, 1 hard drive, sound card...I dont want to really spend more than $100

Earthwatts 430/500 $65-$70 for 430w and little more for the 500w. All good!
Corsair VX450/550 or HX520 450w for $66 after MIR/550 around $90/520 around $100
The only thing good about a Rosewill PSU is that there is no worse PSU than a Rosewill PSU.Originally posted by: bigstrickler
so if i already have a 500 watt rosewill i should be ok?

With that in mind I suppose you've never heard of Deer, Powmax, Hairong, and Okia (to name a few)?
