Thanks buddy. Got the last one. The shipping and handling made it about the same as zipzoomfly but no sales tax. Anyone who doesn't want to deal with TD, zipzoomfly has it for $89 this weekend with free 2nd day shipping. Tax in california though.

I remember when Samsung made cheap electronics...

Ultra makes the X-Connect, not Powmax.

 

[JohnDoh]

I found this message on the Ulta forum IT IS NOT MADE BY POWMAX!!

Just to let EVERYONE know, Ultra Products manufactures this power supply, we sell the X-Connect to Powmax.

It is Ultra engineered, built, and supported.

 

[junthin]

Regardless of who makes it, I'd rather stick with an Antec. But then again, that's just me.

Yeah. Just look at the pictures on PowMax's website. The grills on the power supply STILL SAY ULTRA on them!!!

I'm retiring the old Antec out of my wife's PC for one of these. I've had nothing but power supply related instability problems with that Antec. Replaced RAM, CPU, etc. BLAH! In my own PC, I replaced my Enermax with an Ultra and now that PC will run at 400 MHz FSB. Would only do 333 MHz with the Enermax in it. It's nice to have an XP 3200+ actually run at 2.2GHz!

I know for a fact at least one company had the idea a long while back, they didnt think it would be profitable.

I bet there kickin themselfs in the ass now

 

[deals99]

ebuyer has them for 89 shipped, search for "x-connect"

I'm using an Ultra X-Connect 500w psu. I used this power supply to replace my dead Antec 400w psu.

 

[Granolith Surfer]

I hope you sent your dead power supply in for the rebate. I have an old Antec 300WT lying around so this is tempting to get $30 knocked off the price.
