Cons:number of hook-ups

Pros:quiet, price
Comment:
Bought this because of the price and the fact that I needed a new PS for my new video card. Went in fine and was easy to re hook-up. If you have a lot in your computer might be frustrating because there are not a lot. I have found it very quiet so far which is what I wanted.

Pros:Keeps cool, quiet, steady power.
Comment:
A very good power supply for the money. It keeps this old AGP based system humming along without any trouble. I would've liked extra power hookups, but they're easy to come by. I haven't stressed this thing no matter what I install into this old tank of a computer. Well worth the money.

This is a great PS for a office computer or HTPC. Very quiet and far better than the cheaper Coolermaster Extreme. I wold like to know the fan speed but that could be my set up.

Great PSU. Stable, running a E2200, 2GB ram, and 7600GT all fine. Very quiet, not much noise coming from the unit. Very good price after rebate. Something simple and not too fancy and just enough to run for a casual gamer.

Comment:
Just bought this as a cheap interim replacement PSU while my power requirements weren't very high. Make that cheap in price- not quality. It's stable, has adequate connections for average users, and quite silent.Fan even though it isn't noticably loud, keeps the unit nice and cool.

Cons:2 sata connectors, not a problem for me but I could see why it would be for some.

Pros:It looks great, feels very sturdy, reputible company, very good price when I bought it, good quality all around and extremely quiet.
Comment:
I got it a few days ago and it was ready for pickup in a couple hours. No complaints so far, very happy especially for the price. t was $65 plus over $30 in rebates so i'll end up paying about $30 which is a steal. I recomend for mid level systems with no SLI. A huge upgrade over the crapy PS that came with the case and my one case fan is louder than this silent PS. Excellent all around This review was modfied by poster @ 02-28-08 06:57 PM

Cons:Highly suggest buying a Y molex connector since this CPU only has 4.

Pros:Runs strong. Nice looking PSU with a quiet fan and a decent cable setup. Definitely a step up from the standard models. Keeps my +12V circuits over 12 volts even with 4 HDDs, 2 DVD burners, a power hungry CPU and video card.
Comment:
Awesome PSU. It's a great time to build a PC right now, what with the new 9600GTs priced lower than $200 and high wattage PSUs from reputable companies selling for cheap prices. Great bang for the buck for 500w. A+

I got this PSU and a asus motherboard to build my second desktop pc systerm. It works great and very quietly.500w power is enough for my systerm. The price is reasonable for its performance.

Comment:
Got this as a replacement for a PS that was overheating. It's 500W is sufficient for general use. Runs quiet, and the large fan results in an overall improvement in cooling whereby both the CPU & board temperatures are lowered substantially.

Cons:lack of cable options

Pros:inexpensive, very quiet, decent name behind it,3 yr warranty
Comment:
i bought this for part of a test bed and maybe for a backup ps..it won't serve me as a backup to my machine with the number of sata components i have. the mistake made by ocz is putting one measly dual connector sata cable (don't believe if you've read it has 3..maybe the 600 watt version, but not the 500!) i need 3..i the cable needs to be long enough to go across the length of a case, not 4 inches apart like this design. that's the one critical downside to this drive..great if you're not into sata components to speak of but i have 4.. on the big plus side, power is solid on the rails...no variation and very close to the specs. i have to give it a satisfactory though based on using one today though with all the switch to sata drives.

I got this for my dual core 3800 and DFI Lanparty. I have monitored this with motherboard monitor. All of the voltages stay rock solid and I have had no stability problems. I have overclocked the cpu by 500 MHz and the video card by 65MHz and it runs great. Very good supply.

Comment:
This as a good stable PS for the money despite the rebate BS. The PS is very quiet and generates very little heat. The connectors are adequate for my setup but it does lack in that area. I'm not sure about the build of this PS. It doesn't feel as substantial as some of the PS's I've used but so far I've had no issues with it. Running four drives and three fans and there appears to be plenty of clean power. This PS is a very good bargain.

good psu for 60 bucks. system: Q6600, Geforce 8800GT, 500GB HD, DVD drive, and audigy card. powers this system flawlessly and even works for overclocking. this wasn't a problem for me but beware you can only connect 3 SATA devices.
