hec ACE-580UB 580W ATX12V SLI Certified CrossFire Ready Power Supply

Pros: It's good at failing?

Cons: came DOA

Other Thoughts: huge drag to have to send it back

Pros: Worked. had tons of cables molex and sata. was awesome

Cons: didnt last more then year and a half. was hoping for atleast average 3years... but nope

Other Thoughts: ... hopefully the others that were cheaper then this one will last longer

Pros: Needed a new and more powerful PSU to replace the diddly 250w in my hp so I could get a new GPU.... this worked perfect, fit right in, wires seemed high quality. I was worried about getting a doa like i have read can happen but this is far from dead! Blue light looks great out the back too!

Cons: Nothing bad to say

Other Thoughts: Wires seemed a tad stiff, but like I said they are high quality so its not really a bad thing

Pros: Affordable, easy to use, pretty lights.

Cons: Not modular.

Other Thoughts: Powers my dads PC, has for almost 2 years now. No issues.

Pros: Very simple installation. No additional power supplies to attach and run cables. Drivers were picked up right away by Win 7, didn't even need the disk. Runs 3 monitors with no problems. Setup was easy, changing the resolution for different displays is easy, just an easy to use card. Blue color goes with my system.

Cons: It's not a $600 card.

Other Thoughts: Being able to stream HD movies to my tv, and playing games in full detail on my monitor at the same time, is awesome.

Pros: The options it claims to have are great for the price see only problem below.

Cons: The only problem with this Power Supply is I got one DOA then did an RMA and got the second one and all it did was turn on and off on my tester. I can't afford to run a business when I keep getting DOA products I will no longer buy this brand at all. Long story short the power supply has to run in order to take advantage of the options it has.

Other Thoughts: Newegg is absolutely amazing with customer service, product selection, and prices. I only use for the most part 2 websites to get parts for my business and newegg is one of them. Keep it up please guys.

Pros: Great power supply. It comes with a new power cord and good documentation.

Cons: Screw holes are a little off. That was just a minor problem. I had to buy IDE to SATA power connector converters.

Other Thoughts: I just do not understand why PSs come with only 4-SATA power connectors and 10-IDE power connectors. And, those SATA power connectors are only 2-inches apart on each cable? These PS engineers need to actually take a look inside of a computer case and give us a more usable product for the peripherals being sold.

Pros: Have had this in my system since 2008 and since then i have kept on adding and it keeps up with everything. It now is running:
amd 9600
ati 3870 (upgrading to an ati 5770)
4 hd's
and a whole bunch of peripherals.

oh and its black with blue lights.

Cons: its doesnt upgrade itself.

Other Thoughts: I have killed all of my other power supplies. The previous one that lasted the longest was an HEC. So i specifically went looking for and HEC power supply and found this one.

Pros: Price
Looks
It works... mostly

Cons: Cannot stand up to what it SHOULD be able to do...

Other Thoughts: It would run a milder system just fine. System was stable with my 6800XT in the same system. SLI Ready huh? Yea right, couldn't even take a single 260!

Was not stable with:
AMD Phenom 9600
2GB Ballistix 1066
1x GTX 260 (Core 192)
2x 160GB HDs
1x DVD R/RW

Only kept it for a little over a week then RMA'd it for a refund.

Pros: Still going strong, quiet, LED's still work, still have head room for upgrades. Can't beat The Egg for great product & customer service or delivery time.
Newegg is the BOMB!!

Cons: Won't serve my Vodka shots with beer chasers.

Other Thoughts: My system is on 24/7, unless there is a power surge due to storms... just goes to show, even after being jolted it still powers my rig no matter what. Would recomend this PSU to anyone. If you do your research you'll find that all manufactuers of PSU's suffer some DOA's. Trust me when I say this is prob. due to handling. I deliver parcel post to the U.S postal service, and I see how things get handled... I've seen flat screens get flattened more than OEM spec. This is due to the middle man (read, FedEx) I never let any thing get handled by them. U.P.S. all the way!! I've never had so much as a wrinkled box from them.
