For anyone out there looking for a PSU, here's a pretty good one going at prices cheaper than any store I have found online.

For 49.95, its quite a bargain for this PSU as newegg is charging 70+. I ordered one and it is arriving on Christmas Eve. I'll see how it turns out and update.

Looks like a very good deal to me. Just a heads up for anyone who wants one.

Thanks for the heads up. Keep us informed. The only thing I need to update in my system is my PS. I don't like the fact that the rail for my +12V is 11.43V and -12V is -12.12V. It's a shame to have an unlocked Barton and 1GB of HyperX and being restricted by my PS.

That +12 rail blows if it is 11.43. I wonder if they got a pot inside you could tweak?

As for the -12, who really cares. It is a fallback of the legacy stuff and nothing uses -12 or -5. Unless of course you still have a mobo with ISA slots and a card that needs -12 or -5v.

99.9999% of the time, if there is no load on the rail, they you can get some wacky readings.
