powerup PSU quality?

[adams828]

anyone know the quality of the powerup PSUs? i know they wont' be the greatest, but i need a cheap PSU for my htpc setup. i'm not going to OC, and will be using a 1.2GHz t-bird, 1 (maybe 2) optical drives, radeon64 agp card, and 2 hard drives. can i make this work for me, or will i end up kicking myself for getting this?

I had a poopy power supply and the motherboard caught fire. Nuff said.

Get a good power supply....look at it this way, you're spending good money for the right TV, surround sound, graphics card, drives, etc., may as well make sure your PSU is up to task right?

Did you pick a case? The Overture by Antec seems to look pretty nice and has decent reviews. 380 watt PSU included too.

Antec Truepower 330 is $44 at Newegg right now....

Good luck with HTPC!!!
