id seen it before in a case mod, but since the case was built from scratch, i thought he did that too (since he modded most of the cables in his case)

I'm using a Hiper Type-R 580W in my system:

that picture was taken with flash on, and adjusted lighting in GIMP. The lights are much brighter in real life.
though if I take a picture with the flash off, it ends up blurred.

Yea! I can't wait to get my new Power Supply Unit so I can stare at it

-.-!!!! it is only 580w! Why not get a more powerful one rather than this? And you can even put a blue led fan in it or something... I think that classic black PSU's with blue led fans roxs

and for pete's sake.. it's only a PSU... lol I rather stare at my rocking monitor or graphics card or CPU or Motherboard... rather than the PSU up in the corner of my case that is buzzing and making smoke... wait... that is fun to stair at, lol

That puny 580w.... my computer will cause brown-outs when it's powered on.

If ur a total case mod person .. or a "looker" meaning you buy things because of the way it looks, lol... then I can understand that... I guess it also helps if it is in fact the amount of power you need and it does fit your project well.

I believe in buying things that work best.. I don't care about looks very much... except for chicks..
