    If you want the good looks of the 350w SmartBlue, but with more guts, go for the TrueBlue 480w.

    I can vouch that the Tagen PSU's are a great seller. At Gladiator we original started with a limited PSU selection, a few generic ones and some Q-Tecs. After some feedback from our customers we took on Antec Turepower. The quality is fantastic. IMOH the best way to get an Antec PSU is in one of their cases, buying a case/psu bundle brings the prices right down and the cases don't look bad at all.

    More recently we have taken stock of the Tagen. Having not known much about it before hand we were not sure, certainly the brand was not as big as Antec, however we have not been disapointed and the specifications are very impressive, they just have the edge over the Antec's:

    Tagen 480W Spec:

    +3.3V 28A

    +5V 48A

    +12V 28A

    -12V 1.0A

    -5V 0.8A

    +5VSB 2.5A

    Dont take my word for it, after all I am a salesman! but do check the next issue of PC Exteme where you should see a round up of some of the high end PSU's.

    *edited a lickle bit by Zakky for naughty pimpage of own products and prices*

    Cheers
