    The box was blue or the actual PSU?

    www.dabs.com - type enermax in the search box.
    Never, ever approach a computer saying or even thinking "I will just do this quickly."

    D@ve,

    Pop round to your local Maplins. They do a wide range of "Gold" PSU's and I've found them to be very stable & high quality but they are not cheap!!!

    (I'm currently using a Q-Tec Gold 400w)



    Now where did I leave my Lump Hammer?

    Thanks for the advice, I have ordered a 550W triple fan PFC Q-Tec PSU from Tekheads for about £30!

    I would like to see Ruslan's opinion of Q-Tec, Tom's hardware wasn't over enamoured...
