    Channel Well Technology (CWT) make the X-clio PSUs. They used to make them for Antec (pre Neo-HE range) which sounds good, right up until you find out that the last lot of pre-Neo Antec's are dropping like flies....

    Basically it depend what you want to do with the powersupply. If you want to run a really efficiant overclocked rig then put more cash into the psu but if you just want something simple, cheap and reasonably quiet to run a fairly stock machine then they are fine
    Its not ya know.
    We used to speak/PM on another forum and he tests for all the big companies!

    Well, the plug socket for the power cord doesn't hold the plug as firmly as normally, which he doesn't like, and his system seems very unstable with that PSU but fine with my old Tagan. Could just be luck of the draw I suppose, but I've read dodgy things about them elsewhere, and seen them at the bottom of PSU quality lists. I think Scan use them in their 3XS systems, although in my opinion that doesn't say much.... not Scan's biggest fan
