yeah, i have heard a few people bitch about enermax. heh, and all this time i thought enermax and antec were sleazy bedfellows... oh well.
i'll probably stick with antec, i guess. i think it's powmax, someone posted a review about not that long ago (or maybe i just ran across the review), that they're supposed to be pretty good psu's, and they can be had on the cheap. i think the one local store sells their 500/550's for like $60 or something. not bad, especially comparing it to the prices of some enermax units.
probably consider fortron as well, but i dunno, they just didn't have that uber quality look i guess about them.
it seems all the sudden a year or something ago, everything went to "uber cheap". at least with cases, and a lot of power supplies. they all started using that new ultra-bendy galvanized-ish look crappy metal, and all the cases now are all goofy [read: crappy] looking.
of course, you can buy all these cases for $30 or less, but still. it seems it's getting harder to find more quality stuff.
i'd much rather buy a case i could be happy with, and keep around for a few years than buy some silly looking colored sack of poo i have to bend into shape just to mount the hard drives.
on the flip side, anybody seen the coolermaster mid tower aluminum thingie? i'm talking the square one without the door and rounded stuff. man, that thing looks SWEET, reminds me of my old pioneer receiver. if the interior was built more like a lian li, i'd replace my lian li
lol.. sorry about the rant, doesn't have much to do about power supplies, just something that's been a little frustrating lately. what happened to all the old-school goodness cases??
