I was looking at the "Elite 460".
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817171046
Newegg lists it as 460 "max" power. Which means it's not a true 460W.
I picked up one of them, for a build with a single-core A64 S939 CPU and a GF 6200 PCI-E.
I decided against using them for my upcoming semi-used gaming-rig builds, and got a few Antec VP-450 units instead.

The $6 shipping was kind of a deal-killer, but I got them anyways.
Did I make the right choice?
Gaming rig is going to have Q9300 @ 3.0, VisionTek HD4850, 8GB DDR2, 500GB WD HD, 30GB SSD, and DVD burner.
Or should I put these EarthWatts 500W PSUs in, instead of the VP-450s, and save the VP-450s for builds in the future?
