Which ATX power supply? fortunately, I have a few requirements to narrow the field
(so Gold is fine) and puts me in the 600-800W range and excludes eco-mode.
Sure, I can get a 650W unit with 5-year warrantee for $35, but I am after quality.
The unit I am replacing was 80+ Gold, 600W but had no filtering on the mains.
The unit I am using presently is an EVGA 500W1

but the version with uncooled bridge rectifier.
- non-modular (not even semi-modular)
- no RGB
- 5-year warrantee or more
