DYNEX 400 WATT ATX POWER SUPPLY

Build or modify your own PC:Yes

Primary reason for building/modifying PC:Multimedia (music, movies, photos)

Recently I was having trouble with my older HP Pavilion desk top running Windows XP. I was convinced that I needed to reload Windows because it would lock up, reboot, automatically go to advanced boot, or just turn off after attempting to turn it on. After doing some research online, I discovered it was probably the power supply. That didn't really surprise me too much because it was the original power supply making it about 11 yrs old. I tested the power supply and discovered that some of the outputs were outside the given parameters...voltages were lower than specified. After conferring with the Geek Squad at Best Buy and explaining the symptoms to them, they directed me to the DYNEX 400WATT ATX POWER SUPPLY.

Installation was very simple and my puter booted right up and appears to be cured. The fan runs so quietly that you can barely hear it at all, and at 400 watts it will easily outperorm the original 250watt power supply.

What's great about it: Price, ease of installation, compatibility.

What's not so great: Nothing!

I would recommend this to a friend!
