The very PSU that is so highly regarded here and throughout the enthusiast community for it's power, efficiency, tight voltage regulation, and quietness of operation. This will be powering the DFI LANParty UT NF4 DR Expert mobo You are probably already awar...

I'm very happy with my Neo2 Platinum but wouldn't recommend it because of a poor layout. The CPU socket is rotated 90° compared to most 939 boards and because of the proximity of the AGP slot, getting a big cooler in there is nigh on impossible, especially if your AGP card has anything mounted on i...
