EDIT: I rely seemed like a jerk. That PSU will be OK, nothing special, i think you payed WAY to much for that PSU.

I think that you should have made a thread before you bought.

The Antec True Power II 430W someone is selling in the forums will be better.

I'll hold off buying it until I hear your results. And yes, what amd posted is very reassuring.

I hope flexforce will help me out.

I will note my expireiences here. I will see how good or bad the flex force is, see how stable the voltages are, and most importantly make sure it will run my powerfull system . Looks is always good too! It should be here in two days, i cant wait.
