PSU suggestions?


I'm looking at this one,

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817171018

I have like 40-50 bones, tops, so that ultra x-finity 500w PSU ceewi1 recommends is out. This one looks good though, any one see anything wrong, or can recommend something better in the same price range?

I have a 550W power supply in my machine and it is more than enough power for what i use my system for.

Yeah, but wattage is just the beginning. I'm also looking at amperage, efficiency, quality components etc. My previous 450w PSU died after only 2 years, probably because it was a bad quality POS...

Good one! Lots more amps, I think this one's good.

Rosewill = NO! Go with the Ultra or step-up to OCZ or Corsair

It's $100, but i have a coupon code to take $50 off! Suweet. Active PFC + dual +12 rails rated at 18a each = awesome. The code is EMC1023CASE01 for anyone wanting to get in on the action

Despite the labelling, it's actually a 500W Seventeam built unit with total +12V@30A and mediocre efficiency. Good for $50, but not worth that much more.
