I have been using Fortron and Sparkle for the past 3-4 years now and have always been very happy with thier products. So naturally when it came time to upgrade from my 350 watt Fortron psu I logged onto Newegg and did a search through the Fortron PSU's. This is what I found and ordered: http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=17-104-934&depa=0
As you can see if you follow the link, it has sleaved lines and a nice color and looks to be very efficient and lots of power. After trying to run raid and several fans and a dvd reader and burner it has been straining my 350 watt Fortron to where I was getting errors from my FX5900 saying that the power connector to it was unhooked, which it wasnt but rather the 12 volt line had dropped that low. Hopefully this new 500 watt Fortron will do the trick, especially since I just plopped down just shy of $100 for it lol.
