Here is a link to it on new egg...

I read the reviews on newegg but I like to ask around when buying power supplies.

Any thoughts on it or are there any other power supplies that are better for the same price?

The Xclio Greatpower are good PSUs. Not the best but they are good and should support a decent system without a problem.

I think something like the Enhance ENP-5140GH or 5150GH from eWiz are better PSUs for just a bit more money. The 5150 is on free ground shipping right now. This one should be better too: iStar 500W. Newegg calls it a server PSU, but it is really a normal PC PSU though it has some features that are more typical for use in server farms.

I have a lightly loaded single core AMD64 system running on an XClio no problem. Angry_Games has used one for a C2D+8800GTS rig, heavily overclocked, just fine. My opinion is the XClio is the best bang for the buck 500 watt psu available.

My friend has this power supply. In his system:

E4300 @ 3.6ghz
2 GB ram (2x1)
8800GTS 320
2 x 320gb seagate 7200.10 raid0
1 x 300gb wd 7200 ide
1 x 16x dvdrw ide
1 x cd/dvd combo drive ide
Gigabyte P35-DS3R motherboard
4 fans

It runs all this fine, so I think it's very Good value at $50 - $60.
