I hope Im posting this in the right forum. What is PFC on a PSU and why is it good? Im debating between the TT 420 on newegg ($39+free ship) and its twin the TT 420 with "active PFC" (50+6 ship). Would I regret skimping out and going with non-PFC?

I recently picked up this burner from newegg for $50. first off it wouldnt recognize as any slave device, and not in combination with any other optical drives. so i had to use secondary master and disable my other lone dvd (nothing wrong with ide controllers or jumpers). Once installed the...
