Enlight burnt my motherboard. I've never had any bad experience with I-Cute. In fact my old I-Cute 450W performs better than my Enlight

Now using AcBel and every thing's a-okay.

u guyz try Task pure power PSU cheap & good..

Maybe like this.......
Cheap PSU = normal usage but not suitable for OC.......
Expensive PSU = OC like ka "Hell" some more can running at 24/7 too......

yeah right. cheap PSU also can run 24/7 what.

MEC ar... sure to kill of your mobo, & maybe your proc as well.
Stay away from this...

As for Icute failing the most... maybe coz it's the best selling brand.
Anyway, my Icute also failed me, but that's after I used it 4 3+yrs almost 24 hours a day, pretty good life-span if you ask me, but definately not value 4 money coz my old chaplang brand oso last as long.

ICrap gets my vote.
3 PSUs dead. The last one (430Watt) simply.... died when it couldn't handle the load of my new 6800GS. My PC kept locking up and I didn't know why. On one last reboot it died after shooting out sparks.
Luckily nothing was damaged.

now still using ICute tho I see so many votes on it... but gonna change to acbel soon when I buy new gc of 7 series

until now only used a few "cheap" psu as my usage not heavy, so far only 1 failed duno wat reason but didnt do damage to my rig (luckily )

MEC, ICute and Powerlogic. All lousy as hell. MEC most spectacular by blowing up with a flash of light and smoke. Fortunately the rig was safe

not many people using fortron source i guess..is psu by them ok? i'm using it now..sorry..a noobie

No other brand can beat I-Cute haha..

used chapalang psu for ocing.. some got caps leakage.. frequently check.. so far no part kaboom in action..

bad experience with CM.. cannot boot.. maybe hardware incompatibility..
now using enermax liberty 400w to powerup my X2.. so far so very good..

Fortran <=-- should be Fortron.

anyway, my Enlight exploded before haha. iCute and Powerlogic so far so good at my place.

Just some tip got from TNB friends,go buy ur self a power regulator for ur PC usage.It help a lot cos TNB voltage are unstable,last time 2 of my PSU (Acbel & CM) oso burn wihout notice within a year.Fedup with the situation just buy AYAM BRAND PSU with power regulator,until now using it for almost 3 year without any problem at all.

Remember to use ur power regulator only for ur multimedia use like monitor,cpu,modem or ur speaker,don't overloaded it with ur fan,radio,tv,washing machine bla bla bla... If overloaded oso tak tahan

PS: No no no..i'm not a power regulator dealer/manufacturer,just buy it,u won't regret

can recommend me a decent PSU with budget around RM250 +-

whoops... could u pls change that for me?

try 430w silverstone element series..or get an 400w enermax liberty if u can top up abit more. think i got my enermax for rm295,silverstone should b rm220 or around there

all this while i'm using the max 200W from Dell Optiplex GX260 (P3 Based) to powerup my overclocked P4HT up to 3.16GHz without any stability problems. it has only 10A on +12V rail

Go to ALL IT at lowyat..3 or 4 floor dun remember..
They show u sample real PSU between ENERMAX and Cap Ayam (already open case)...huhuhu..really differentlah..their cap,ic,regulator,aiyooo..see for ur self
Enermax look so quality compare to Ayam Brand

PS: Go for Enermax

mec...system not stable and always get BSOD...burn my both mobo and cpu after 1 yr
