^^^ true dat when it comes to PSU.

ASharp · Nov 7, 2008

Those stats aren't enough to determine whether a PSU is good or not. A manufacturer can throw a bunch of numbers on there but it's meaningless if they can't back it up. You should be more concerned with the brand. Generic brands are generally no good. You should be spending a little more money to get the better brands such as Seasonic, Corsair, Enermax, or even OCZ and Antec. The brands I've mentioned are more known for being reliable and can actually put out the power they say they can. Mind you, it does vary from model to model so you should always look at reviews before buying. I recommend JonnyGuru for review purposes. They do some pretty extensive power supply reviews over there.

Yes of course lol. They used to be a great company beyond the rest but now there are other brands that have stepped up and have been able to match if not surpass PC P&C. PC Power&Cooling still makes some great PSUs though and should not be ignored.

* OS: Windows Vista - Service Pack 1 / XP - Service Pack 3
* Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo 1.8Ghz, AMD Athlon X2 64 2.4Ghz
* Memory: 1.5GB, 16GB Free Hard Drive Space
* Video Card: 256MB NVIDIA 7900 / 256MB ATI X1900

damn, 2.288GHz proved to be too demanding on this system with the current ambient temps being high. (Chipset/VRMs couldnt hack it) dropped back to 206x11.
