Antec PSU 300W

[Insthink]

Im getting the Antec SX1030 case that comes with a antec 300w psu. I read on reviews that the PSU is very good, can take a lot compared to other PSUs
But im getting a powerful system to run on it,
AMD tbird 1333 OC @ dunno how high it will go
Gforce3 with blue orb
512DDr ram
Epox mobo
1 HDD 7200rpm
1 cd rom drive
1 big 55CFM fan on a Fop-32 globalwin
2x80mm fans

Well, my system is running on an Antec PP303 300W, here it is...
900Mhz T-bird@950(not unlocked yet)w/Super Orb
Abit KT7-RAID
512Mb Micron PC133 CAS3 SDRAM
2 Western Digital 30Gb 7200rpm ATA100 hard drives
Hitachi DVDROM
Acer CDRW4432A CD burner
ATI Radeon LE w/Blue Orb (overclocked to 180 & tweaked)
Soundblaster 16PCI
Linsys LNE10/100 NIC
Pinnacle Studio PCTV Pro tuner/capture card
3 CoolerMaster 80mm fans (1 front, 2 rear)
1 Antec slot fan below vid card
1 Blue Orb on Northbridge chip

With all this (including 9 fans) the power supply has no problems running my system, even though it sounds like it should be on an airport runway. http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif

I swear by this PSU. Own 4 of them myself.

Insthink,

Antec makes quality power supply units, no doubt. If you're interested in shopping a bit more, however, consider PC Power & Cooling, they're the best in the business. I have their 400W Silencer unit and have been quite pleased with it. They're found at www.pcpowercooling.com (http://www.pcpowercooling.com)

how about the Enermax PSU's? I ordered a 350watter, setting up a system similar to insthink, except 512 regular SDRAM, but cpu is same speed no oc though.

It has some "noiseless" rating, but is dual fan. I guess they are quiet? How steady is the voltages on this unit?

I have both ps's listed and have had no problems with either. To me it seems like the antec that came with my case is quieter.
