    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Build quality. Modular cables. 5 year warranty!! Rock solid lines.

    Weaknesses:None.

    Overall Evaluation: For any serious builder, the power supply is THE most important component- the heart of the PC is you will. Do not skimp on the power supply when you are spending 100's on the rest of your computer. The 5 year warranty makes this power supply a no brainer. I am running a evga 8600GT, Intel E4300, MSI Platinum motherboard, Maxtor SATA HD and various other bits and pieces and not once had a problem. There is a reason why this is rated 5 stars :)

    Duration of ownership: 1 Months

    Strengths: Modular cables, stable rails, quiet, SLI certified, appearance

    Weaknesses:2 sata cables, price

    Overall Evaluation: Great psu for mid range systems. It has quiet, stable power on all rails. The cables are long and maneuverable enough for larger cases like p180. It has 5 year warranty and price is getting reasonable. I has two 2 modular dual SATA power cables which may affect systems with large number of SATA drives.

    Duration of ownership: 30 Days

    Strengths: 80% efficiency, 5 year warranty, Quiet, Nice Modular Cables, Overall great power supply

    Weaknesses:Lack of 8 pin connector for graphic cards like amd 2900xt

    Overall Evaluation: This is one of the better power supplies out there. Based on Seasonic power supplies, which is a good thing. Rails remain stable under load. Warranty is just wow, besides corsair I don't know who offeres 5 year warranty on a power supply. Packing is good, you get small bag to put away in it cables that you don't use. New graphic cards from amd/ati have 8 pin which this psu does not offer. Though the 6 pin connector still works with these cards. Hopely in the future power consumption of graphic cards drops so 6 pin or even less can be used.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Solid construction. Easy to install. Long cables.

    Weaknesses:none.

    Overall Evaluation: The CMPSU-520HX is driving my new system, which runs about 6-8 hours/day for the last 3 months. It has been running very quiet with no issues since installation.This PSU provides steady and reliable voltages. Installation is easy and clean because of the modular cables. Strongly recommended.
