That's guaranteed. The only question is, how many of the other components will it take out when it dies? Unless you are building this for someone you really hate, I'd suggest you try an enermax liberty or seasonic or fortron something or other. Use that cheap case if you want, that's OK. Just replace the power supply. -Dave |

Like using a hammer with a loose head, knowing its loose isn't going to stop something real hurtful from happening when you least expect it. |
