Power Supply Failure Poll

[larrymoencurly]

I'd like to know which supplies are reliable and which aren't.
So if you've had any failures, what was the brand?

Powmax/Leadman 400 watt. I know some folks have had good luck with the very old models, but I wouldn't touch one again. Dead after four months light use.

I've had 3 Antecs go bad on me. Plus, they never return calls made to their forever busy customer service number.

Right now I have an Enermax and have no problems in the 3 months I've had it. Time will tell.
