I've used many ICUTE. All work fine. Frankly, i've never encountered any problem with branded PSU. Just some previous no brand, no name PSU coz my old PC to hang frequently.

use icute 450w on a celeron. burn mobo n proc. even my old capalang psu can last me 3 years on low end spec.

uh..no vote for OCZ and HEC?

maybe just because not available in malaysia?

All my old chapalang PSU never fail me, my power logic failed me once but its due to a stupid reptile get stuck underneath the PCB of PSU and it blown !!

Now changing to icute 450W which you guys voted failing the most

MEC... killed my NF7

For me PowerLogic and brandless OEM PSU fail the most and worst... even without OC... PowerLogic always got some kind of burnt smell in them... iCute never gave me or any1 i know any prob... for normal use la... cuz in my opinion iCute is the best office use PSU...

My very first PC Was killed by an I-cute PSU

*PIII 733mhz system with I-cute psu - <dead>
*Intel celeron system with another brandless psu - <alive and sold to a forummer>
*P4 3.8ghz system with Coolermaster psu - <alive>

wow, I-Cute seems like so popular over here.

I-Cute can be considered as a Branded PSU in chapalang category and loosy brand in Branded category ?

ICute FTW...did u no i toast my new icute along with 6600GT after 2 just weeks?

maybe..btw im using hec psu..so far dun hv any prob yet..

Never faced any problem with chaplang PSU.Kong after a few years of used.But i-cute 420w dual fan almost fried my mobo.+12v to high.Then change to Antec.But now when i test+put into a mobo+a few fans.Seems the +12v rails is OK..i-cute


i'm still using TP 430w since Amd Palamino till now (AM2) and i always oc my cpu+fsb+ram

maybe it blown coz the overload from TNB.U don't use an AVR right??

coz only a few ppl using this brand

hrmm.... just to share. 2 Enermax 600w Noisetaker failed on me when i'm still on DFI Ultra-D, 3200, 66gt, 2500ks. the 2nd one from rma is version 2 with 2 pcie connector but still fail. then swap to Coolergiant, rock stable and smooth sailing. according to ianho, it's the batch where one of the 12v rail got problem, thus only single 12v rail functioning. this actually found in the version 1 Noisetaker, according to TG Hardware if i'm not mistaken. cannot remember liao.

btw, i bought 3 HEC 450w or 430w (forgot which version) for my friends setup. no oc. so far so good. 3 already more than 1 year of usage.

from my XP, i have like 3 fail i-Cute (maybe more,forgot) which if i can remember,2 of them blow up (yes..they really blow up,got bunga api to see)kill my gf4 Ti4200,kill my nf7-s also.
now using 400w enermax liberty,i think this PSU is rock solid and have superb design( it looks even better than my casing =.=!)

but seeing this post have alot of fail enermax..now i feel scared also..lol

or it's because alot of ppl use enermax too ?? but i really love this PSU

Failure of PSU also actually reflect how lousy our TNB is supplying the utility power to us. The one which sucks most is TNB, increase price and still power failure so often.

i had bad experience wif Acbel. never did any OC or tuning thing, n the PSU somehow cracked itself up, lucky didn't burn my rig.

used several iCute b4, never had any problem. currently using a CoolerMaster, so far so good.

Wah acbel also not good izzit ? i planing to buy 1 soon, lifetimewarranty rite ?

I'm using I-Cute 450W output with a big fana the bottom...work fine for me this 2 year woh-now still working fine....can support 4 cd rom, 2 ram, 3 HDD dude. I also can 24/7 open for BT'ing... So many ppl complain about I-Cute PSU...

im using a power logic atrix 600pt...so far so good never failed me....but then i dont knoe izzit the psu problem or i wrong flash bios...my 7950gx2 burn....my fren said it because the mobo wrong bios and start to loop start...so i guess this psu is still ok...never had a problem with my old psu before oso non branded pc 24/7...

But, izzit we rate for the bad one and the other way round b'coz we used b4 and we know which one is better and bad...

simply as we rate bcoz we know which one is better..
