Aspire Beast Power

Post by The Black Pumpkin »

Does anyone know how good the Aspire 680w series is? Or any Aspire power supply, for that matter.
AMD Opteron 1224SE "Santa Ana" = DFI Lanparty UT NF590 SLI-M2R/G
Crucial Ballistix 4x1GB DDR2 800 = Corsair CMPSU-750TX
Sapphire 4870 1GB = Sceptre X20WG-Naga 20" = Logitech X-530 5.1
Seagate 320GB (SATA II) x2 = Samsung SH-S203B (SATA)

Aspire is total crap, stay away from their PSUs.

If a PSU is under $75 and over 450W then that is your fisrt indication that the quality is suspect.

Yeah, I kinda figured they would'nt be good, just had to ask. :P

So far my 500w is working fine, I'll just save up for a truepower 750 or something. 8)
