I have heard some good things about this PSU and then I went and checked it out and the price just amazed me! From what I heard this sounded like a nice quality $80 PSU but to find out its only $49 was awesome.

It will be powering,

E6300 slightly OC
965p-S3
7900GS
1 HD
1 DVD/CDRW

May go SLI about a year from now

Right now I am on a slim budget and with this PSU I could save over $50 over any other PSU.

It needs to last about 3 years which is when I plan to upgrade again.
 
Well I have yet to find proof that it is a BAD psu, however, it doesn't look like a good one either, kind of looks like you're taking a chance. It should run you're current rig AOK, but I would not trust it in sli unless you get confident confirmation.

I believe jonnyGURU posted somewhere that it is a good PSU!!
 
The XClio PSUs are made by ChannelWell. I have not yet heard of CW OEMed PSUs other than Antec having significant problems. (I'm of the opinion that Antec precipitated their own problems.) Also check out the Enhance ENP-5150GH on eWiz via Froogle (save a buck or so). You get all the XClio has plus 80+ efficiency, 100,000 hr. MTBF, active PFC and full-range AC voltage compensation (IOW, server/workstation grade power) for under $70. It is also hard to beat.

Well since the RAM prices are going up I'm not sure I'll be able to afford the Enhance on my budget so I think I'll stick to the XClio, thanks for the help guys.
