| 607043 | 2007-11-01 03:17:00 | How do I know which ATX my motherboard is compatible with? Does it matter? Or will they all work? Thanks |

| 607044 | 2007-11-01 16:01:00 | If you buy an "off the shelf" computer. Remember it has been built to a price. Not a quality standard. | JJJJJ (528) | ||
| 607045 | 2007-11-01 18:12:00 | Yea, mine was off the shelf, 3 years ago xD Anyways, i've noticed that no one seems to have mentioned anything about Thermaltake. Is it better or worse than Silverstone? Price wise it seems Thermaltake is a bit darer... $153.96 for a 500 watt Silverstone $158.21 for a 460 watt Thermaltake. $4.25 more and you get 40 less watts?:horrified |

| 607047 | 2007-11-01 18:16:00 | Either will do. I personaly use Silverstone |

| 607048 | 2007-11-01 19:27:00 | -Enermax Which brands do you reckon are the best? I had a silverstone. It died. Taking my graphics card with it. Therefore, even though they get great reviews I have a aversion to trying another. Enermax is king in my opinion. And qazwsxokmijn - you mean they haven't given you a problem - yet. You really don't want to experience the results of one of those "having a problem". |

| 607049 | 2007-11-01 20:35:00 | $158.21 for a 460 watt Thermaltake. Why not pay just $90.00 for a 430W Thermaltake from DSE (www.dse.co.nz)? I and at least one other very knowledgable PF1 user have one. Reliable and inexpensive. [edit] and it'll work fine in your system, plus a good warranty. |

| 607050 | 2007-11-02 02:10:00 | Make sure you check out the specs/reviews of the DSE one. Thermaltake make some pretty crappy power supplies as well as some good ones. | george12 (7) | ||
| 607051 | 2007-11-02 04:32:00 | Really? All the 3 Hyenas I have had never gave me a problem. :( They're fine if you're running a socket 370 600mhz celeron or something... but push them near the limits and they are very likely to explode in a sheet of flame or similar |
