This is a good price for a good unit. The GOOD brands, like PC Power % cooling, Corsair, Enermax(some, i stress some enermax psu is good).

IMO find the best deal you can on a PCP&C or Corsair, best steady units.

some people buy enermax because certain models of their power supplies are super-quiet... we all have different priorities.

i'd hate to see antec stop producing that signature power supply, but i think that they have a real winner in the cp-850, it has the potential to be one of the quietest and most bulletproof power supplies on the market:

"The Good:
outperformed my SG-850 for ripple suppression
very quiet, even in the hot box
exceptionally stable voltage regulation
did better efficiency than 80 Plus' sample and cleared Bronze
waaaaaaaaay overbuilt

The Bad:
proprietary to three Antec cases... all others must be modded (if there's room)

The Mediocre:
it's huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge and tried to run me over"

I am on the phone with the supervisor right now and the only option he could think of was for me to re-order this item, then return the second delivered PSU as the first one (they are the same) for a refund of the higher price. Kinda counter-intuitive since they end up eating the cost of shipping twice, but hey, if it works...

Beware that this is a sure fire way of being blacklisted by Am@zon. Lots of posts about this around here so I wont get into it, but it's something that's probably not worth it if you do a lot of shopping there.

this topic isn't about an enermax brand anyway. one of it's poorer models were used as a comparison and i refuted it. the end. let this topic die already.

deal's long dead.
