Comment: my uncle bought me el-cheapo 570 watts power supply for 35 bucks for my system, i could play several hours call of duty 2, swat 4 and need for speed carbon at max settings, but i had to return to the store because it was deffective, it last just one day, actually sometimes i turned my computer the monitor had no signal (black screen) and sudden restarts... the next day my computer was completely dead.
Now i'm planning to buy a new one, my ONLY decent options are:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ... The coolermaster has a 500watts version of the igreen power supply and i have seen in reviews that those igreen ps meets “Energy Star” and “Blue Angel” requirements and RoHS Compliance. This in turn means energy and money saving. Could you guys help me to decide and telling me if those ps are fine? thank you.

Reply: (edit)by the way, i just realized that the coolermaster only has 1 x floppy and my motherboard uses 1 for it's fan.
Is it possible to disconnect the motherboard fan and connect the floppy drive while i install windows with a sata drive? WinXP professional SP2

Reply: (edit)My mistake, it's a power connector, not a fan one. In the manual appears to be a GROUND connector. WinXP professional SP2
