Fremont, CA - January 5, 2005 - Antec, Inc., the leading manufacturer of
computer hardware and accessories for the upgrade and build your own (BYO)
markets, has launched its TruePower 2.0 line of PC power supplies for
reliable, quiet and efficient power.

TruePower 2.0 builds on Antec's trusted TruePower line of PSUs. The new line
of PSUs features Antec's Low Noise Technology to substantially reduce system
noise. An independent test lab measures TruePower 2.0 with a noise level of
21 dBA using the ISO 7779 standard for more accurate noise measurement. The
PSU comes equipped with a single 120mm low noise fan that runs at the lowest
speed appropriate to load and conditions, helping to achieve the optimum
balance between noise reduction and necessary cooling. In addition,
dedicated fan only power connectors allow TruePower to control the speed of
the case fan, further contributing to overall noise reduction.

The power supply offers other features such as dual 12V outputs to ensure
greater system stability and meet safety requirements. In contrast to
traditional PSU designs that share output circuitry, TruePower 2.0 features
dedicated output circuitry that allows for maximum power to be delivered to
all voltages, resulting in maximum performance. The PSU includes voltage
feedback circuitry, which enables tighter tolerances and maintains accurate
voltages to all components, adding further stability to the user's system.
Additional features include four serial ATA connectors, PCI Express graphic
card power connectors and ATX 12V 2.01 compliance with a 24 pin main
connector and 24 to 20 pin adapter for backwards compatibility.

"True silence is important to today's noise conscious PC users. Many
companies claim to produce 'silent' power supplies but often are using
varying and inaccurate methods for determining noise levels," said Scott
Richards, Antec worldwide vice president of sales and marketing. "Using the
ISO 7779 standard, we aim to standardize noise levels, thereby creating a
more accurate reading of true silence for the consumer. TruePower has a
reputation for providing the ultimate balance between PC users' need for
reliable power and minimum PC noise. By incorporating such features as dual
12V outputs and the introduction of more accurate noise measurement,
TruePower 2.0 represents a higher standard for today's PSUs."

TruePower 2.0 power supplies are available for an estimated street price
ranging from $89.00 - $159.00 depending on the wattage, through major
retailers, e-tailers and distributors. They are backed by Antec's Quality
3-Year Warranty. For additional product information and full technical
