Howdy folks,

Need some info on a piece of gear.

The AG ( or AG Micro) 520 Watt ATX Power Supply features sufficient power and compatibility for all the latest hardware. With two SATA power connectors, ATX 2.03 and 12V 1.1 Compliance, Intel and AMD support, a dual fan design for low noise and improved reliability, and a host of built in protection circuits, this is a fully loaded power supply with a small price tag.

Line Max Current
+3.3V 26A
+5V 52A
-5V 0.8A
+12V 28A
-12V 1.0A
+5VSB 2.5A

Sold out @SVC available at other sites for@ $20.00 + shipping.

Google didn't turn up much beside a few places to buy(with very limited info on those sites)

I asked for a manufacturer's link or a review link from svc and they "can not give out that info" - weird.

Anybody got any info on this power supply.

Thanks In Advance

If you have a pic of it where you can read the UL listing file number ( Exxxxxxx under the RU symbol), you can look up the mfr on the UL site. Oh, it doesn't even have an RU symbol you say? When the known-good brands' 500+W units run more than $50., what can you really expect for $20??? I don't buy anything without the RU (with file number) and TUV symbols. It's OOS anyway...

DON'T skimp on your powersupply. http://www.amdmb.com/article-display.php?ArticleID=270 show you the top power supplies. The top or $100 and $200. Though pcpowercooling's recent $21 (deluxe model) price hiked ticks me off, the do indeed make the best power supply. The antec power supply is a close second but has a 5% variation vs the 1% in the pcpowercooling one. There is also an additional 2 years warranty it though.
