Are Delta power supplies any good?

I was going to get a Delta power supply (it comes with a case I like), and it's 320w. From what I'm told (here), 300w should be adequate for my Athlon64 PC I'm building. I appreciate any input on this.

Thanks!
 
Delta has been among the best in the past. Not familiar with the current crop except for the one I have in my case (one of those Chyang Fun blowouts from newegg a while back). I have had no problems with it except its thermal sensing circuit ran the fan too slowly for my taste (output air was too warm and I barely felt any breeze) so I put the PSU fan on manual control. Much cooler output air now and I can feel a breeze.
. I forgot. Mine has no negative voltage outputs. They are seldom used any more so I really don't miss them. Had to do something to be able to sell the case and all for $30. or less shipped... Many PSUs lack the -5V output now and I suspect the -12V circuit will follow shortly so mine's just ahead of its time 😉 .

I am no fan of them at all. My opinion was reinforced even more when I saw one burn up with tons of smoke. If you are spending that much on a system, why not spend the cash on an Antec true power 430 or enermax, etc power supply. Don't come whining here when your el cheapo case's power supply burned your computer up.
