Hello,

At my local Staples, they have Antec Earthwatts 500W PSUs. On all of the boxes it listed the two 12V rails as each having 22A. That doesn't really make sense to me as Antec's website and all the online reviews I have seen lists it as having 2 12V rails rated at 17A each. What's going on?

Thanks in advance :)
 
Thanks boarderjw,

The link answered a lot of questions. So should I avoid the EA-500D because it's delta made? I know Seasonic who was the manufacturer on the EA-500 is considered high quality but I have no idea about Delta.

Thanks again
