[UsandThem]

Here is one for $49.00 after $20.00 MIR

Antec

There is a review of that unit several posts down in that thread.

 

[shoRunner]

why did you get 2 6600gt???? when it'd be cheaper to get 1 6800gt....

xclio

 

[bob4432]

not my machine... a friends

 

[bob4432]

is it better to have dual 12V or one with more A?

 

[Promethply]

This XClio 450W dual 12V rail PSU has a total of 32Amps, which is more than enough for your system, and it's manufactured by the same manufacturer that supplied Antec with their Truepower:

XClio 450BL ATX 450W Power Supply

 

[bob4432]

what about for my rig in sig? i know i am pushing my 350W and may as well upgrade it before things go bad... same p/s?

 

[Promethply]

Yeah, the 450W XClio will definitely be better for your own system too.

 

[bob4432]

weird, i just tried it again - it is for a antec 500W modular for 69.99 - $20mir

 

[Promethply]

Yeah, it's a bit strange -- tried the link again, and now it works 😕

Anyway, that 500W Antec Smartpower's pretty good 🙂
