99% Of Psu's Will F*ck Up Your Hardware.

[zapjb]

I'll get the full life out of my hardware. Unlike others who swear Antec isn't the only top PSU, that there are many others. Wake up 99% or more of the PSU being sold seperately or on $500 emachines - $2000 top brand names are pos PSU that will f*ck up the hardware within 1-2yrs. If it ain't got an Antec (or literally 1 or 2 other brands) PSU imo you're throwing your money away.

My 2 cents. Now flame away if you can name another reliable brand of PSU. Just don't tell me it's 500 watts. That's bs



No I don't work for or have stock in Antec.

who cares... in 2-3 years our hardware will be outdated anyway.... and some of us will be covered by warrenty

I've got an Antec. I think saying that any other power supply than Antec screws up your hardware in 1-2 years is bullshit though.

pc power & cooling does a good job too (altho u prolly havent heard of them lol)

and dont forget thermaltake!

It's sad really. I'll read about somebodies new system costing $500-$1000usd in parts or more. Then they'll say I got a 400watt or 500watt PSU. I'm thinking you poor bastard. For $40 more you could've gotten a reliable PSU. They'll get top quality CPU, mobo, ram etc. Then they'll get the case cause it's shiny or pretty window or cheap. They refuse to admit bad PSU's kill good hardware prematurely.

hmm I'm not sure the psu would really be a problem... I helped a friend build his pc like 5 yrs ago and it has a crappy psu and he has never had to do any repair work on it though his pc is slightly outdated

[bigdawgfoxx]

Yeah I dont think it would ruin your hardware...thats bullshit.

Antec makes good power supply units but they aren't the only ones that build quality. For example there is Enermax.

I do agree that a lot of people are fooled by those "500W" units.
