Any of these £40 PSUs worth using?
I know they arent very highly powered, but does anyone have any views on any of the following:
370W Enermax Noisetaker
380W Tagan
400W Akasa Ultra Quiet Pax Power (or something)
Im not gonna be using this so dont worry, nothing will dislodge my 480w Tagan fr some time.

erm, dont chuck jeantech in with q-tec - they are rather different. Q-tec is a cheap brand and though I've found them to be reliable from experience (2yrs usage with no probs in several pcs) they are generally noisy and I've read about all sorts of problems people have had with their psus.
However, Jeantech is far far better, they make quality power supplies.
PC world have some sort of contract/agreement with jeantech to sell their psus - and I don't think such a huge company would back them if they made shoddy products! My 500 watt atx 2.0 jeantech psu handles my 6800gt and overclocked athlon xp system fine, and its also silent.
Have you ever used either brand? Or are you just judging based on what you've heard? Do a little research if you don't believe me.
