Awesome power supply, One of the only I have ever seen that has a LOT of 4 pin power connectors. Buy.con and Onsale sell them for close to that as well.

I'm having the antec power supply, and i notice that there is alot of heat from the PW, i know this by feeling the air blowing out of the fan. Is that common?

My antec 300w just fried on me... it was only 2 weeks old. It came with my sx830 case, i hope they'll replace it for me.

Antec power supplies are unusually hot, too bad I cant reverse the fan to blow air in instead of out

 

[Msatan666]

you don't want to reverse the p.s. fan. Hot air rises. That fan does double duty cooling your case as well as the p.s. If you want to cool it down more, add a fan to the front of the case blowing in to increase air circulation. If that doesn't help, you could try a blowhole on the left side or top of the case fairly close to the cpu.

I've had this power supply for at least 1.5 years. Hasn't failed me yet. Every power connector is in use, except the extra floppy power connector. It is nice and stable powering 3HDs, CD-ROM, CD-R/W, ZIP, floppy, 2 fan HD Cooler, 2 CPU fans, 2 Case fan, the mobo and all the crap and recently, V5 5500.
