I got a Helluva Computer Deal!!

[phaxmohdem]

I have aquired at an auction, a pretty nice computer:

Coolermaster Wave Master Case (Silver)
DFI Lan Party 925x-T2 Mobo
Pentium 4 530 (3.0gHz/1Mb/800/HT)
1GB PC4200 Samsung DDR-2 (4-4-4-11)
36GB Raptor
80GB seagate
DVDRW Drive
CDRW Drive
BFG 6600GT OC PCI-E
Vantec Ion2 460W Power Supply

My question is on th epower supply, I have never heard anybody talk about Vantec PS's are they of decent quality? I looked around, ant this unit seems to cost around $60 at various retailers, so that would put it in the good midrange PS price bracket. Anybody have experience, or know about these things?

Oh yeah, above computer purchased for $279 USD 😛 w00t!

Glad to hear you caught it when it fell off the back of the truck phaxmohdem 😛

IIRC Vantec PSUs are fairly good quality ... a quick Googling of the keywords shows happy review scores. 🙂

Hehe, thankfully it was purchased legally and I've got a receipt to back it up..... you know in case the owner of the truck comes knocking 😛

great deal on the computer, but I would replace the PSU with something of better quality. I recomend getting a 400-450w Fortron, they are good, but not overpriced like a lot of the others are.

I was gonna bash it as soon as i noticed the processor, but I can't bash that deal at all.

Great deal, good luck with it.
