ultra is not known as a good psu maker. they are mostly known for putting glitter on junk. Here's an opinion to the contrary: Jonnyguru.com review of Ultra X-Pro 600w PSU This guy, who is a professional PSU reviewer, was so impressed with the 600w Ultra that he kept it for his personal system. Here's another extremely positive (9.5/10) review of an Ultra PSU: Jonnyguru.com Ultra X3 1000w PSU review Granted, these are not Ultra's lower end models and may be substantially better than their cheaper PSU's and/or made by a different manufacturer for Ultra with more of a reputation for quality. |

yeah,
use a magnifying glass or maybe try doing it on two layers with a piece of electrical tape in between, draw on top of the tape for the 2nd line. |

Hmm... now I need a very good deal on the video card and the HDD which never goes down recently...
The new Radeon 4850 video cards have been on sale from $150-1$175ish. They are listed at $200, and are the best bang for the buck cards that you can get right now. Great for gaming, HD/Blueray, etc.

Granted, these are not Ultra's lower end models and may be substantially better than their cheaper PSU's and/or made by a different manufacturer for Ultra with more of a reputation for quality. Those are very specific power supplies that he is talking about and not typical of their line. I had trouble finding the exact same model when I was in the market and ended up paying more for Corsair HX620. Wish I would have just stayed with my OZC 520 powerstream since that was enough power and ran more silent. Most of what Ultra made was sub par compared to antec etc, but even those lesser ones would get the job done unless you got a bad one. 600 watts should be plenty for most dual core, single video card systems with 1 or 2 hd's and an optical and a few case fans. But take the time to check how much power you'll need before hand and give yourself a little space.
This is a nice little tool to check how much power you'll need.
