So who should buy this power supply? Or better yet who needs this power supply? If you're new to computers and you want a stable entry level power supply for a computer system that you plan to build with mid range components then there is no reason not to consider this power supply. If you are planning on delving into the home theater PC arena then this power supply should be near the top of your list. With its silent operation a home theater is the place where this product will be right at home. The wattage output is ideal for a midrange build, however I think our test have proved that when pushed to the limits this power supply is able to handle most anything you through at it with in reason. The power supply is not designed for an SLI or Crossfire setup or if you are looking for to power high end cooling systems.

All in all this power supply does just what it needs to, and I can confidently recommend it to any normal computer user.
