Anyone have any experience with this PSU
http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16817104953

Even keeping in mind the low price I would still imagine it is the same decent quality as all of the FSP brand products, but the "AX" nomenclature made me think I should ask you guys.

By the way it would be powering an upgrade of my wife's modest system...
MSI K9VGM-V (VIA K8M890 Socket AM2)
Athlon 64 3200+
Corsiar Value Select PC2 5300 (2x512MB)
eVGA 7600GT (No PCI-E plug, draws all power from socket)
2xIDE HDs
2xIDE DVD/RW

I am buying the mobo, processor, and perhaps this PSU, everything else I have on-hand. The most intensive thing she does with the machine is copy DVD's. I think it will do the trick, but it is never a bad idea to get the opinion and/or experience of others.

Budget 350W PSU with a combined 12v rating of 24A. It should power that system.

I thank you for your input. Yeah, I was able to discern that info from the photo of the nomenclature plate (just barely) and do the appropriate math. Listing the components was probably a bit of a red-herring and I apologize (you know someone was going to ask though). I know that it should power the system, I just wondered how efficently (what the rails were actually producing) and for how long, in short, did anyone have any insight into this "AX" line. No the power needs are fairly modest, as a matter of fact I was mulling over the Seasonic S12-330 with 22A combined (odd split) which would most likely be all that was ever needed, but that would be at a $15 premium. Not that the $15 would break me, but money is money, and I am actually only upgrading her because I have the memory and am going to yank the graphics card from my bedroom system (see sig).

Peace

The AX (saga) line is the lower end compared to the FSP lines. I would expect it to simply be a basic spec compliant PSU with no real amazing points but no major faults.
