Anybody have experience with Antec RMA?
I bought NSK4400 case(i think its discontinued)
came with su-380
It was making noise so i exchanged.
Now this second power supply is not working.
Does Antec RMA discontinued products?

I tried to exchange but it was the last one they had.
Will they RMA my power supply? or should I return this NSK4400.
I only paid $55 for it and thought it was good deal.
 
If it is still within the warranty period, Antec should replace it. I've heard very positive things about their customer service.

As Zero82z said, if it's still within the 3 to 5 year warranty, yes Antec will replace the PSU regardless of it being discontinued or not. Often times they'll send you a newer version of the PSU you RMA'd. So in your case, you'll probably get the Antec Earthwatts EA380 380W PS, a decent quality PSU.
 
I decided to return the whole case and get three hundred at newegg.
Which power supply is better?

earth watt EA430
or basiq 500w continuous

they are both antec and same price.
I plan to run 4770 crossfire in year or two when I actually start pc play games again.
I went to antec website and did calculation and came out around 410-430 watt with 4850x2. So I'm guessing 450 or above psu is needed.

The EA430 is the better PSU. However, it may not be a good idea to run a 4770 Crossfire setup on that PSU, depending on what the rest of your PC specs are. Please list them so we can get a better idea of what you'll need.
 
I'm running
Kuma @3.2
2x2gig 1066 OCZ
500 seagate
basically thats it.

Plan to upgrade my CPU and vid later.
Should i go for 600+ watt psu?

A good quality 550W PSU will be enough. I recommend the BFG LS-550:
$80 - BFG Tech LS-550 550W PSU
