No more Antec for me!
After a caps fiasco killed 2 supposedly "premium" PSU's that were used < 12mo/ea.
They refused to give consideration that despite warranty being expired, the units
clearly had manufacturing flaw vs. dying from old age and and the replacement had sat
for almost a year before being put to work only to die <6mo later.
Of course when I opened the barely 6mo dead replacement unit, all the popped caps
were a known crap hu-flung-dung brand. Dunno who OEM'd them for antec but I stay away
on principal for getting burned!

I had some terrible reliability problems with various models of antec PSU a
couple of years ago, had several models all develop dead +12v power for the cpu
connector in a fairly short timeframe, and that kinda put me off.
pretty much everything I've got or maintain has an Enermax or Corsair unit in
it, and I've had no trouble with them.
Also had good results from Tagan units.

Antec, Corsair and Enermax PSUs get a lot of rep from forums I'm on.
