What were they thinking?
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Running stable now that it's installed.
Cons: Connectors are poorly though out. Had to hack it to make it work.
Other Thoughts: I am giving this otherwise great PSU a "very poor" due to the frustration of being unable to get my system running over a simple design point.
Unlike my previous Antec EPS12,...

Awesome!!
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Great power, more than enough.. This great PSU is so quite I could not believe it. I liked the plentiful amount of connections and if you have lots of SATA or IDE drives you will have plenty of connections.
Cons: The only con is that no where was it specified that if you need to use the 12V 4 pin connector you have to seperate the 8 pin into tw...

Design incompatibility?
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: I purchased 2 of these PSU's in April (6 months old). One just died (BSOD, then DOA). Newegg issued an RMA no questions asked and I received a replacement 2 days after they received the failed unit. The remaining PSU (on another identical system) is still working like a champ.
Cons: I'm wondering if this is a d...

Whoa - the POWER!
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Whoa, can you say power? This is nice and consistent power, and it's an ANTEC! How much better does it get? Plus, you can't beat the price (assuming you got the great twenty five bones rebate AND the ten buck discount!)
Cons: None.
Other Thoughts: Here's skinny (for those who ...

lol @ antec.
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
Pros: it started up. it ran my dual core athlon 4400, 2 dvd writers,2 160gig hd's,2 gig of pc3200 dual channel ram @ 402mhz, 2 6600gt's in sli.
Cons: switched over to 2 7900gt in sli and this junker craps out. WoW, HL2, np. F.E.A.R., Oblivion on maximum settings? ya right. system locks up the minute you put this pile of dung under any REAL strain. dont waste your time.

Not Really Pleased
Tech Level:
Ownership:
Comments: I used to swear by Antec and recommend them to anyone who would listen.
I picked up one of these beasts anticipating years of trouble free service like my other Antecs are providing.
90 days after purchase, one 12 volt rail failed. Fans no longer were powered and the system started rebooting.
Newegg had done their usual great job of getting the merchandise to me but since it had been 90 days, I placed the iss...

Antec Quality
Tech Level: average
Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Typical Antec quality power supply. My interest in this unit goes beyond brand name quality...also needed the wattage. Also desired the dual fans for exhausting case heat. If you need more molex connections then come with this unit, use some Y-splitters.
Cons: none.....

Excellent Choice...Totally SILENT

Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Really and I mean reallyyyy silent. Connectors for anything that you might think of adding. Antec quality. One of the best.
Cons: None so far...
Other Thoughts: The Manual...or should I say the little piece of info that came in the box is not very helpful. I just had a little problem that maybe has happened to some bod...
