EarthWatts are built by Seasonic
- Pros: All Antec EarthWatts, NeoHE's, and Trios are manufactured by Seasonic, and that is what the UL (E104405) will confirm as well. The EarthWatts has 80+ efficiency from 20-100% loads, excellent voltage regulation, low ripple, and even though it claims to have dual 12V rails it's actually a single 30A 12V rail. It also comes with a 3 yr. warranty, and Antec has one of the best warranties in the business.
- Cons: It's not modular and it's rather plain looking.
- Other Thoughts: We can only hope that Antec continues offering high quality psu's that do not use fuhjyyu caps!
Bought one last week
- Pros: Antec Quality. Installed easily, more than enough IDE and SATA connectors for anyone, PCI-E graphics 6-in connector included. Over 80% power efficient which I love, and I hope my electric bill does too!
The 24-pin connector has wiring that is encased by a nice thick coating (looks snazzy), and there's helpful brackets that come with it for in-case organization.
Quiet too!
- Cons: High Price for only 430 watts
- Other Thoughts: A little pricey, but its Antec quality you're paying for!
I bought this to replace an old 300 watt power supply so that I could upgrade my graphics card. I was hesitant because this is a new Antec series and doesn't have any type of track record, but I gave it a try and I have to say I'm very happy with it. Always been an Antec fan for their quality products.

Efficient power supply that is QUIET.
- Pros: Extremely quiet.
Plenty of connections.
High efficiency rating.
Easy install.
Antec quality.
- Cons: None.
- Other Thoughts: First of all, ignore all the bad reviews that complain about the rebate troubles. Losing out on the $5-$10 rebate should not reflect on the actual product. Also, ignore those who complain that this power supply isn't modular. This is a $50 power supply with Antec quality... you get what you pay for. That's like complaining that your new Corolla doesn't have heated leather seats. I purchased this PSU to run a graphics card upgrade on a new Lenovo desktop. The card required a minimum of 300W, so I was looking for a lower wattage and efficient power supply that runs very quietly. This item fits my needs perfectly.... you can buy it with confidence.
Works as advertised
- Pros: Works as advertised with an older Abit NF-7M MOBO. No problems so far.
- Cons: 20+4 connector could be a little longer.
Item arrived defective and was not working
- Pros: Could not use it as the item arrived defective
- Cons: Item arrived defective and was not working.
