I've never owned a Cooler Master PSU before and I have no idea if this one is any good but if its free why not get it for a backup?

By the first few comments on newegg saying it sounds like a jet plane...I'll stay away :)

I believe the PSU itself is fine, but I wouldn't use it for a main rig.

Then people like me who actually enjoy the noise from a PC will be happy :)

I had Cooler Master PSU for a day b4 I RMA'd it. It seems like they have QC issue where the fan hits something inside and makes clinking noise. If you dont mind loud metal noise, then this is a great deal...

I have had a CoolerMaster 430watt PSU running in my secondary rig for 3 years now and not a peep and it has been run near its peak alot of its life....probably a ticking time bomb but jeez will it ever go off ? LOL

sounds like there may be quality control issues. Some people say its a banshee, some people say its quiet.

20% reviews left 1 egg? I think we know why they're giving them away.

lol... maybe i'm an idiot, but i've bought many of the CM eXtreme PSUs... the 500w, the 550w, and now i'm thinking of taking this 600w... for $8 after shipping and rebates, i'm willing to take chances.

It's actually a 500W based andyson powersupply, it's not super but for free this is pretty good.
