Nice, good quality basic PSU

Strengths: Versatile cabling. Lifetime warranty.

Weakness: None

This is a fine basic power supply. If your system isn't extremely power hungry, this one should meet your needs. It isn't one of the glamorous lookers, being basic black, but is a steady and reliable performer.

I bought two of them on sale for a pair of pretty much standard equipment computers: 2.xGB processors, 512 MB memory, DVD-ROM/CD-RW, two HDD each, onboard graphics. These PSUs don't even break a sweat in either system; and the 120mm fan should draw plenty of air if something does start to tax it.

There are connectors for 20 or 24 pin ATX connections as well as 2 or 3 SATA connectors and plenty of molex and the other standard plugs.

Register the product on-line and Ultra extends the 3-year warranty to a lifetime one!

Great power supply at an affordable price.

Strengths: 350 Watts. SATA Ready. 8 4-pin Molex connectors. Limited Lifetime Warranty (with online registration).

Weakness: Only 2 SATA connectors.

I got this power supply at an excellent price after rebate because I installed a 256MB GeForce Graphics card. So far, I haven't had any problems at all with it. The fan seems nice and quiet enough to me. And I've never had my computer crash with it up to this point, regardless of heavy demands from games on the card. I thought the Limited Lifetime Warranty is a great bonus to have, should something go wrong with it. The only downside is that it only has 2 SATA connectors, which I have connected to my hard drive and DVD-RW drive. Sucks if I'd want to add more SATA drives in the future.

Features:
20/24 Pin Motherboard Connector x1
4 Pin +12V Motherboard Connector x1
4 Pin Molex Connectors x8
4 Pin Floppy Power Connectors x2
PCI Express Connector x1
SATA Connectors x2

Good budget PSU for low power systems

Strengths: Cheap, versatile connectors, 120mm fan, lifetime warranty

Weakness: Low 350W.

If you don't have a power hungry CPU and graphics card, this might just work fine for you. It is cheap, almost free, and will do a decent job of putting out 350W. I like the 120mm fan which is quiet and keeps it cool. The 20/24pin power connector is also convenient, and it comes with a decent number of molex/PCI-E/SATA connectors suitable for a basic computer. Lifetime warranty gives some assurance but I hope I will never have to try out the warranty.

Decent power supply

Strengths: Comes with all the standard connector for your motherboard.

Weakness: Might not have enough power for your power-hungry video card.

This power supply comes with a 20/24 pin power connector as well as SATA and PCI express connectors. The fan noise seems to be low. While the 350w capacity seemed to be able to handle dual core CPUs, it fell a little short if you want to add a faster video card. I would not try to stress it by running a Geforce 8800 video along card with your system.

Ultra 350W V-Series

Strengths: This PS has 8 4-pin Molex Connectors for hard drives/fans, PCIexpress and 2 SATA connectors.

Weakness: Modest output

This PS is good for a basic system without high PS demands. It works good for my basic PC replacement. I do not have a separate video card but do have 2 HDs.

Pretty good basic ps

Strengths: Price, looks nice

Weakness: none for what it claims

Works great for a basic computer. Wire lengths were managable. Nice black color. If you do not need more than 350 Watts...this is a great ps for its price.

Great price, good PS

Strengths: price

Weakness: 350w

Bought this basically because it was cheap. It's a good unit for your basic internet/office machine. I would not recommend it if you were planning to overclock or have a high end gaming system with a powerful processor. It's a 350w black unit that looks nice and works well. I would highly recommend it at the sale price.
