Is this a good PSU?


http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817103937
its an ANTEC and i hear lots of good things about them, i have a crappy one (350w) that came with my aspire case and its like a generic. The Pins on the power supply (24) dont even eaqual the same amout of pins on the MOBO (24)

I just dont want to spend much.

Please reply (specs in sig if you need them)

that one is fine but does have some cooling problems, especially if your coolingsetup has low airflow.

I'd also recommend you look at the Fortron AX500-A,

They will work for both AMD and Intel platforms. 24pin ATX on an Intel is same as 24pin ATX on an AMD. Just for future reference
