First, I'll have you know that the CompUSA PSU's are made by Leadman.
When I was working for the disty that would actually do fullfillment for CompUSA for builds, cases and PSU's up until about 2005, the return rate was about 20%.
Now mind you, return rate and failure rate are completely different. In my experience, failure rate is less than 50% of return rate even after a retail store "tech" deems a product "defective" (some guys behind the counter don't even realize that you can't just flip the siwtch on the back of a PSU to get it to turn on.) On the other hand, a lot of "techs" will only look at a PSU problem as "does it turn on? Yes. Ok... Not a PSU problem." The customer goes home, still has problems, gives up, buys a Dell. So you can balance that "defective" rate somewhere between 10 and 20%.
But also keep in mind that the warranty for these units is only one year. So beyond that, the store and the supplier aren't going to have any data. Since it's MORE LIKELY to have the product die in the field rather than DOA or within the first year, it's pretty safe to assume that your failure rate is considerably higher than 10 to 20% over the course of two or three years.
Sure, YOU'VE never had a PSU die. Guess what? I've never had a Ford Explorer roll over on me. Doesn't mean it doesn't happen. It's cool to base an opinion on personal experiences. That's where opinions come from. But I'm telling you from experience that it's not in the best interest of the customer to use a power supply like this to power any kind of quality components and certainly not for any extended period of time.
Like I said, 10 or 20% failure is unacceptable. It DOES mean that the odds are with you, but even a 5% RMA rate is unacceptable. And if a percentage of that 5% destroys one or two more components in it's wake it's even more so unacceptable. A quality part tends to only have a 2% failure rate and an even smaller percentage of incidental damage.
You can tell someone that banging your head against the wall isn't going to cause brain damage and in most cases it won't. Odds are you'll knock yourself out first. But if you bang long enough and hard enough, you can cause brain damage.
If the OP has enough sense to come to a forum and ask about his PSU, why not save him from being potentially one of the folks that has the PSU die on them or difficult to troubleshoot problems? They have a known bad power supply with unrealistic specifications that are prone to failure. I just don't see what sense it makes to send him on his way with the same PSU, telling him he's going to be "fine".
