1. A quality PS supplies steady, clean power to your components. It can last through several upgrades or rebuilds and keep chugging on.
* You never have to think about it. :thumbsup:
2. A cheap PS can fluctuate in its output and cause reboots, lockups, etc. It has a short life span.
* You're always posting in here asking why your system is acting up. :thumbsdown:

Flip a coin... Heads it's the CoolerMaster 550W and Tails it's the AOpen 400W.

Mr. Antec Rep, many people have complained about the poor cooling solution employed on your PSU's. How do you plan to address that issue?

The Aopen cases at http://www.myaopen.com/ come Fortron PSUs. I'm not sure of the model type, you would have to email them for that info.

Fair value of a quality PSU is around $30. Therefore, I wouldn't pay more than $60 for a brand name PSU (Fortron, Enermax, Antec, and Sparkle). I do not purchase generic PSU. Forking over $100 for a PSU is also foolish, because the small gain in performance does not warrant the huge price premium (marketing 101).

Hello! Let me say a few words!
I deal with customers on a daily basis. I can tell you that when we develope a new PSU the r&d dollars just to test and double check the PSU is very very high.

Your reason for not spending more than $60 on a PSU is not an informed reason.
From thye buisness end we have as of July 1, 2006 started using new caps in all our PSU`s.
We have quit using fuhjyyu Caps totally.
We now use Rubycon caps and Nippon Chemicon caps exclusively.

We are dedicated to putting out a quality PSU.

I do not believe you are, who you say you are. I think your just a member with a second account

Your post here as well as over in Cases & Cooling are lacking in substance. Now go away.
