Rather than tying off cables you don't need and having them possibly interupting air flow through the case you only plug in what you need. Not heard of AYWUN and have not yet had to replace one. |

| 1189940 | 2011-03-29 01:07:00 | Have you guys heard of 80+? www.plugloadsolutions.com Where it shows the PSU that are certified and have gone through testing to see whether they run efficiently |

Also, there are a few good brands that are not listed there at all. I certainly wouldn't buy a PSU solely from looking a that list. |

| 1189942 | 2011-03-29 01:48:00 | Corsair's HX650 is modular & 80+ Bronze certified. The HX750/850 are 80+ Silver and the AX series are 80+ Gold. | inphinity (7274) | ||
| 1189943 | 2011-03-29 02:38:00 | hmm the case costs $177. What's consider not cheap?lol If it comes with the case, it's cheap. But there are rare curcumstances where you might actually get a good PSU. The are probably considered "bundles" not freebies though. They would be most likely well above the cost of your case. Aywun - Crappy. Had a 450w started to whine after about 1 week of use. their $50 psu's are not even worth your time. BTW I spent almost the same on my PSU as you did for your case and psu. |

| 1189944 | 2011-03-29 04:38:00 | Hmm Computer lounge says the Coolermaster 430 case + Bundled PSU is adequate but gave me an alternative option Antec 300 + a Seasonic 520W and all the specs for $1599 Pctronix offered me the coolermaster + The bundled psu for $1500NZ . They said that the graphics + cpu might pull 400w then you have the ram, motherboard,dvd writer etc might push the PSU a bit too much. Coolermaster + Aywun = $1650 They both include Windows 7 OEM. Uh. but both company says Raidmax is bad. Hmmm...?Who to go.lol |

| 1189945 | 2011-03-29 04:45:00 | Ummmm. Why not get the case you want and ask them to supply a Corsair PSU with the case. Trade in the PSU that comes with it. It's what I did. | Snorkbox (15764) | ||
