Point taken...
Dont get me wrong, there are absolutely exceptions to the rule, and you found a verified specific manufacturer of that model, but realistically next week they may get a better price from another manufacturer, and switch to a crap version.
Its not a reliable namebrand...
Ive seen Rosewills that would blow away in a strong breeze, and a few that I would gladly use in my own rig... but without going through the hassle of research, testing and time, I wouldnt know from one month to the next if it was reliable. |

However, when I do have time for mail-order and can afford it at the same time I'll probably return to Antec as those have usually outlasted the systems they were in. I have three AT Antecs [350W]on the shelf that someday I'd like to convert to ATX spec[as I once read about one person doing that].
| I did that before. the Power Supply didn't last very long but it powered the computer for about 2 months then it took a dump.

OK. However, they're still good units that I'd like to find a purpose for someday.

I've turned one of mine into an external unit to test parts with. I haven't used it for a while so I don't know exactly were it is but if I find it I'll take a pic for you to look at. | |

| Gigabyte ga-ep45-ud3p is giving me difficulty. The DVD and HDD installs were a dream. Power plugs no issue ( if you have one and can;t find the 8 pin it's a dongle in a separate bag.
Where in the world are the 2 prong pins for the power button and HDD L.E.D?
It is an awesome board. Am i stuck in "bold" here,,,
Thanks,

HDD LED attaches to your front panel of the case. Not the power supply. | |
