BIOS 0602 is out as of Friday.

Anybody try the new 0502 BIOS yet?

Read the second "product" review on that page...

Long time since I've signed onto here... I cannot for the life of me get a wireless card working in the single PCI slot on this motherboard. The wireless card(s) work on another computer. It is a D-Link DWL-AG530 with an Atheros chipset. It would always hard-lock when installing the driver...

Wouldn't that mean he'd get another one back? That would suck.

Maybe add the PCP&C Silencer 610 to that list.

The PSU calculators aren't very accurate... but the 620W Corsair will be a nice upgrade, calculator or not.

Says what?

Your mileage may vary.

A single 8800GTX should be fine on the HX520.

Right underneath the chart: combined +12V 35A/420W Silverstone is pretty good with specs.

Unless you get a really shitty one and it blows up. You want a sick video card, yet don't want to spend a lot on the power supply that will be running it?

It is a pretty solid choice.

People think it's good because of the high price tag. Newegg is probably making a killing on those. They still call it coritinuous wattage.

Says the PCP&C !!!!!!. Why settle for less?

Brownouts will kill a lot of power supplies, no matter what brand, no matter how good they are. Blame the brownouts, not the Antec not being able to hold up.

Why not? You do know that the Corsairs are pretty similar to the Seasonic you linked to (minus the modular interface mostly)... You're missing out on a lot if you skip the Corsairs.

None of those are real reviews though. Plug it in and it works? 10/10! No you can't. Same goes for the second review, you can't trust software monitoring to tell you anythign. No idea how the third review got it's testing methodology. It's a dated ATX12V v1.3 design, as evidenced by the...

Out of all your candidates, only the Enermax is a good choice, the others should be avoided. The Corsair HX520 is a better PSU still.

Powertek? I would take it back anyway. They spell it coritinuous.

More amperage over the Modstream.

8800GTS and heavy overclocking? The Modstream 520W has only like 28A on the +12V. I would upgrade.

What are you used to paying then?

You can plug the 4-pin ATX12V into the 8-pin EPS12V. It'll only fit one way. Or you could get a PSU that's suited for the job :p

Any idea what you'll be doing/using in the future? That might be a hard question to answer, but let me be the first to recommend the Corsair HX520.

Not all Antec is crap. Here's some food for thought if you don't already know, Seasonic is the OEM for most of Antec's current models.

Prime95 for two hours is not stable yet. Let it run overnight at least.

Good excuse to upgrade :o

A single 8800GTX? I would say so.

It depends more on the board. The A7N8X powers the CPU from the +5V.

Maybe it has something to do with the fact that the motherboard powers the CPU with the +5V? You said it didn't have the 4-pin connector. It could be crossloading heavily?

What will you be powering exactly? Rosewill in general should be avoided.

It is not a 100% failure rate.

It's Lian-Li. The name is right on the front of the case usually. We need the model because they produce a lot of products.

That will work easily.

The Corsair HX520 is one of the best overall choices out there.

http://www.silverstonetek.com/products/power-35f/interior/300w.jpg It certainly doesn't look like your average Enhance...

The Seasonic S12-430 would be nice and quiet.

I wasn't aware Lian-Li was a PSU vendor. Link please? They work good and quiet. It works, doesn't mean it's working good and quiet at 1000W. :o
