There are good power supplies, they just don't come in pre-built
computers
because they're expensive. I think the same could be said of products
from
any era.
Well, you guys have convinced me. Next time I buy a PS, I'm going to
spend more money on it.
What exactly do you guys _do_ with your computer that suddenly breaks
the power supplies?! Maybe I'm just too young to know, but I've never
seen a power supply break...
Use them every day for a regular computer? While I've had no spectacular
failures (yet), this has been sufficient to break a PSU or two.
Then I decided to spend money getting a quality PSU, and it hasn't had
a single problem in 7 years.
