    Agent I havent seen an antec but i belive they are very similar. Anyway they are good psus and the spec is exactly the same. the cwt is very cheap in comparason and I think it lacks some of the things which most people would not notice, a -5v rail for example.
    As I said havent got an antec to compare but I have pics of mine if you want to compare them.
    I know both are known for having very little space inside (= mess).

    Viewing several other forums, there seems to be a lot of conflicting information.
    Even if they are not the same, they seem to be good PSUs from what ive heard

    Got both and to be me they look the same on the inside

    It's gotta be better than risking the rest of your rig?

    Shogey mate, you could always unplug your pelt for awhile, until you get yourself a new PSU
