Antec Earthwatts 650W Power Supply ATX12V V2.2 EPS12V Active PFC 80PLUS 120MM Fan
Cons: did not have enough power when I installed water cooling

Pros: ok for a basic system but not recommended for power hungry systems.
Comment:
I used this power supply for about a year with my basic core i7 system msi x58 pro-e and 9800gt video card with no problemsbut when I then added a water cooling pump my video card died....I then tried a second video card and it died as well.I found out the hard way underpowering your video card will kill it. Now I got a cooler master quiet 1000w power supply and everything is running great.

Antec Earthwatts 650W Power Supply ATX12V V2.2 EPS12V Active PFC 80PLUS 120MM Fan
Cons: None

Pros: Silent, powerful, 3-year warranty, Antec brand name, plenty of connectors, high efficiency
Comment:
I bought the 650W Earthwatts PSU to replace a 380W Earthwatts PSU in one of my AMD machines. This machine was getting significantly upgraded so the 380W PSU was started to run near its max power which made the fan noisy.The 650W Earthwatts is a fantastic PSU. According to Everest, the voltage lines are as stable as those on my Seasonic M12D! I've put this 650W to use to power a Phenom 940 n 3.4GHz, Gigabyte MA78GM-US2H mobo, 4GB DDR2-1066 RAM, 2 7200rpm drives, X-Fi Titanium sound card, D-Link 802.11n card and Radeon 4670. The PSU is dead silent regardless of load!

Antec Earthwatts 650W Power Supply ATX12V V2.2 EPS12V Active PFC 80PLUS 120MM Fan
Cons: Not Modular :(

Pros: Quiet, Cheap, Large variety of connectors
Comment:
Installed this on Gigabyte P55A-UD3 mobo and Coolermaster CM 690 II Advanced ATX, . No problems with installation but I would have preferred that it were modular since I had a ton of cabling left over. However, in terms of performance and price, it is well worth it.

Antec Earthwatts 650W Power Supply ATX12V V2.2 EPS12V Active PFC 80PLUS 120MM Fan
Cons: If any weakness, only the 24 pin power cord is cloth shielded. Everything else is just twist tied and sorta looks ugly.

Pros: It was only $60, crossfire and sli ready, and a reliable antec brand. You can easily crossfire Hd 5770 x2 on an i7 setup with 4 HDDs.
Comment:
This is a cheap reliable power supply. If you are planning to run a crossfire setup for something like HD 5770's, this will easily be enough. It can run any single video card on the market (except the GTX 480)

Cons:too many left over wires, would be super nice if its modular

Pros:silentenergy efficienton sale= cheap
Comment:
I have no complaint for this. It was a great deal because its 80 plus energy efficient and its 650 w. for only $60.it would be very nice if there's a little less wire OR make it modular. The design is kinda plain but its ok. Just hope its reliable and last a long while.

Cons:Not modular but for the price I can live with that.

Pros:Priced right when on sale, quiet, energy efficient, Antec reliability.
Comment:
You can't go wrong for the price since it's rated on continuous power, very quiet and more than enough power for my budget gaming needs.

Antec Earthwatts 650W Power Supply ATX12V V2.2 EPS12V Active PFC 80PLUS 120MM Fan
Cons:None as of yet.

Pros:Good power output, small, quiet, continuous power.
Comment:
I was recommended to buy this by a friend because of it's continuous power output, rather than having a PSU with a peaking output. Has done nothing but great things.

Antec Earthwatts 650W Power Supply ATX12V V2.2 EPS12V Active PFC 80PLUS 120MM Fan
Cons:expensivenot enough to mount with SLI for a 4000 ATI

Pros:quietsmall
Comment:
It is a good power source. Very silent and quite small for the cabilities.I was surpised bdeause it has only 2 PCI-E povwe adaptors. I have purcahed a RADEON 4890 which requires two power supplies (one for the board and one for the fan I guess). So if I want to go SLI no can do with this one. Besides that no complains.

Cons:Can get tangled up easy, Antec needs to move to all modular units

Pros:Low noise, good pricing, good selection of cable combinations
Comment:
I am a huge Antec fan, I have purchased dozens over the years for various builds of my own and for friends, they have never let me down. Very efficient units and they are quieter then my low speed system fans. Powers a mid-high range gaming platform without any trouble.

Cons:650W (obviously cause it is 650W!)Other cables could have shield, only main does

Pros:Quality Power Supply
Comment:
Currently using the ea650 powering my i7 920, 3x2gb, ex58-ud3r mobo, ati radeon hd 4890 just fine. If you need more power, get the ea750 NEW true power (make sure it is the NEW line). If I plan to run cross fire or SLI I will consider the higher psu but for now, it is powering my system just fine. I purchased this psu from jonnyguru's review recommendation.

Comment:
I used this for an i7 build with a WD 1TB drive and GTX 260 video card. It is quiet and efficient and just does the job required of it. I have no hesitation in recommending this PS for a simple system such as mine, although I suspect that I am far from pushing it to its limits.

Cons:Rien signaler pour le prix payé.

Pros:Très bon manufacturier.Bonne réserve de puissance.Ventilateur silencieux.Bonne longueur de cablage.Prix t`res intéressant en solde (75$).
Comment:
J'ai acheté ce power supply pour monter une machine de gamer moyenne gamme. Ce bloc alimente un Phenom II X3 BE 720 et une EVGA GTX 260 SC et il n'est même pas charger à 40% lorsque que le système est pleine charge. Une bonne réserve de puissance pour des upgrades futures.

Comment:
I used the Earthwatts 500W for a few years and decided to grab a 650W when I upgraded my video card from a 8800GT to a 275 GTX. Works like a charm, voltages are steady and I'm sure like the 500W model, this will last me as long as I need.

Pros:Price per Watt (bought for $75)
Comment:
The brand is trusted and well respected. Im running a i7-920 and a GTX260, 5 drives and no problems. The wiring inside is a giant mess and i believe it does have a significant impact on cooling. If you are one of those people whos ADD about their cabling and internals you may not love this supply.
