Power supply question anybody use this brand

[Indyboy2]

Just picked up a new one of these for a good price http://www.highpowersupply.com/hpc500A12s.html
Does anybody own one or have any info on high power?
I am putting this in a second rig im building i currently have a e-power 750 an i love it been good so far


I was told that these highpower units are made by sirtec?.I was also told these units are very high quality no one owns one or has any experiance with these models the 12v rails look very strong

Never seen this brand before... What had you interested in them over these models:

Enermax Liberty 500W $96-oops sold out
Coolermaster Real Power 550W $120-Free Shipping
Seasonic S12 500W $125
FSP FX600-GLN 600W $125
OCZ GamerXStream 600W $120-$12 MIR, sold out also

Seems to be made by Sirtec, aside from that...I know nothing about them.
Well, it is Sirtec, the brand they build for themselves.

Sirtec builds for, Chieftec, Enlight(at one time considered VG) and Thermaltake at one time.
Not sure if they still provide for Thermaltake.

380W on the combined 12V's doesn't look too bad.

Active PFC and 80% efficiency.

Not bad.

You do realize a good 400W PSU will support the above system??

I was thinking the same thing... on the other hand, you need to plan ahead for future upgrades

Just installed the power supply,the power supply is very heavy ,looks good all cables sleeved the voltage software does not budge i know this can be misleading but its what i have for now and it is quiet.here are some pics the power meter built in in the back says my system draws 223 watts at full load.So far i am very pleased with this supply seems like very high quality

Note to self: Next purchase -- get new digital camera...

 

[Indyboy2]

yes i know can you recommend one i have a fuji finepix 2.0 megapixel now i need one but at a resonable price

 

[VinDSL]

Well, I'm partial to Sony digital cameras (lately) -- take your pick.

Personally, I'm using a Sony DSC-V1, but there are better ones out there...

Can you alter the ISO settings on your Fuji? That would probably help!
