Just for fun, folks (it's never going to happen tongue.gif)...

Would you buy a "Phaedrus" branded power supply over a comparable (or near-identical?) Corsair or SeaSonic power supply? Even if the price were a little higher (5-10%) or the RMA turnaround a little slower?

Sure. I would even pay "more" for it if I know it has your full support.

I would sooner see an official "Phaedrus Approved PSU" branding for PSUs. Why make your own, just put your mark on what you approve.

Yes, even if it costs a little more compared to the competition.

Your the man with PSU's. I wouldn't buy just one - maybe 4 or so.
