or

http://www.compusa.com/products/product...p?product_code=335816&cmid=dsr&ref=dsr

From reviews I have read on both, they both seem like very good psus. But I know some you here have first hand experience and would like to hear what you have to say.

LOL @ any 600W power supply that sells for $39.99 :D

:thumbsup: to the Antec NeoHE for under $100.
:thumbsdown: at having to wait 3 months for the $40 in rebates it takes to get it under $100. :|

It actually doesn't sell for $39.99. It sells for $79.99. The rebate makes it $39.99.

They were $99, but they discontinued the blue.

You know that?

Hate to break it to you, but I doubt most of the opinions you get will be from someone that's used either PSU. Never mind both. ;)

What kind of video card and CPU are you using this for?

Yeah, what are your specs? Unless you're running 2 video cards or a heavily oc'ed 8800gtx with an fx-62 cpu oc'ed to 4.0, get a 400w psu that reaks of quality for less.

With the cheapness of the AX (SAGA) product line and the excess ripple of the FX (Epsilon) product line, I try to only recommend the FSP prefixed models.

everyone will tell you here not to skimp on the PSU... in my experience, antec has always been solid, so i'd pick that over the Ultra PSU, which i usually hear (although have no experience with) is more of a bargain brand... many of their PSU's are "free after rebate", which is never a sign of quality...

having said that though, i've heard antec has had issues recently and i've read about a surprising number of failures in some of their models... the Enhance 5140gh is an excellent alternative in your price range...

Nope, the ST50EF-Plus is the same as the Enhance, the ST50EF (non-plus) is a different PSU all together. That, and the Silverstone has sleeved cables (mostly), which is worth a little more to some.
