An important tip from one of our users: don't just check total power output, find out what you need in the way of current on each power rail. If you need 20 A on your +12V rails and the supply only has 15A, it doesn't matter how many watts the supply puts out: don't buy it. Make certain that you have ENOUGH rails, too: sometimes, you need more than just two +12V rails for your setup.
Replacing an existing power supply is easier: just get a replacement that meets or exceeds the specifications of the old one. (You can usually find those printed on the side of the supply.)
That said, here's a power supply that is compatible with most ATX format motherboards, puts out 500 watts of power (see specifications for exact distribution). Could this be your next power supply?
Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
Pros: It's Stable. It's pretty quite. Works great.
Cons: none that I can think of....
Other Thoughts: If you looking for a good stable running PSU, then you should buy this. It's running my overclocked D @ 3.43Ghz,X1650PRO,2 HDD's,5 case fans,huge gigabyte heatsink, and runs 24/7 since installed it. NO PROBLEMS...

Does the Job Very Well
Reviewed By: CShark on 5/3/2007
Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
Pros: For a basic power supply it does the job well. Dual 12v rails. Put it in my Kids computer when their old Antec True power died. Has been running everything stable. This computer is overclocked to the point of stretching, but narry a gulp from the power.
Cons: I always think 2 fans should be standard, but not a big issue since this supply is doing its job.
Other Thoughts: Perfect supply for a non critical system or basic computer that is not running an 8800 gtx or two. Don't let the name basic fool you. This baby has stable power.

Pros: Consistent power supply to the components, long cables, constructed very well.
Cons: More SATA power connectors would be nice as 2 is really not enough for today's standards. It makes this high pitched noise when i put my computer in standby mode, but it has been doing that since first day of purchase which was a year and a half ago. LOUD FAN.
Other Thoughts: If the fan was not loud as hell id give it 5 eggs. If you want your system to be quiet, do not buy this power supply.

Good But few small flaws
Reviewed By: Al McLeane on 11/14/2009
Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
Pros: I have had this power supply for 11 months now. powers my pentium D 500 Sata HDD 6GB DDR2 RAM with a 9800 GT 1GB more than more than more than enough power I have at least 100 spare watts. could probably throw In a GTX 260 If I wanted Its good and all small vents in the places whener needed to effectively cool the PSU.
Cons: The sata connectors are on the same lame line which sucks luck. It makes a high pitched ring when off not a problem and the fan isn't for the silent type of computers. See other thoughts...
Other Thoughts: I couldn't stand the noise of the fan so I went ahead kno that the PSU already payed for itself in service and voided the warranty and took out the old fan and put it a delta 80mm on a controller. Let me tell you that power supply stays soo cool it's not even funny. Whenevr I don't need the air to be moved I turn it off and when I do need it full blast and boy that thing pulls dust right off the back of my hdd's It moves mor than my 92 and 120mm fans together.
