Very great Power Supply for the price, got it on sale for $69.99. The finish is nice, modular so it's a snap to setup, not too loud. Should run most mid to high end graphics cards easily. Tip: Attach all the wires you're going to need before putting it in the case, otherwise you'll have to take the entire thing out to add something. I did find it a bit hard to setup, but then again it was my first time and I made a good number of rookie mistakes. Once you got it all in, you're good to go.

I was looking for a power supply that I could use in my old Dell E521 until I could build a new comp and this fit the bill nicely. It fit well and with little problems and had the connections I needed. It's very quiet after bootup and haven't had a problem with it since. The only issue I really have with it it really isn't made for a mid tower and hiding the cords was an issue. Even closing the side panel had been a pain, but I dealt with it. It does everything I need it for and had the connectors I wanted. Good price for money, just remember the cords are thick and prebuilt systems that are mid towers would be a tight fit.

I bought this to replace my OEM 300w PSU so that I could upgrade to a modern video card with the external power connectors. Install ws a breeze, though I did have to go to the BFG website to clarify some of the connectors. Instructions that came with it are almost useless and could use a lot of improvement. The power supply is a real beauty (ashamed it's stuck in a case) and extremely quiet. It is a bit longer than my original (but it is more powerfull) it still fit fine, but it made plugging in on the 12 v rails a bit tricky. Modular design makes for a very clean instal and has every conivable connector you could want included.
