PC Power & Cooling 750W Promo
« on: September 16, 2008, 01:33:19 PM »
Newegg is running a promo that ends tomorrow (9/17) on the Pc Power & Cooling 750W Power Supplies.

Just FYI.  Do not forget to enter the promo code at checkout time.  $123 for the 750W Silencer is a great price.

Calling Skuzzy was the "ball that got rolling on my PC build."   He recommended this to me and I'm grateful for it.   PLENTY of power.

This thing just clears my top case fan (within 1/8" of the edge of the fan) and is VERY STOUT.   Buy it, I paid more of rmine and it was still worth it.

Its incredibly tempting. But I have such a horrible system it wouldn't event require half of the power available.

All the more reason to buy it.   This was the first thing I bought.   Build around it.

That's a great deal.  I think I paid about $140-160 for mine.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

Apparently a new promo is on for the same link, extended to 9/26. Bit less of a discount than before, but still saving just under $100.

That is still a heck of a deal.  Newegg must have bought a ton of these supplies.  I do not think it is possible to find a better unit, in that watt range, for the price.

Just received this delivery today. (along with XP pro SP2)

Orrrr I should say I just found where UPS hid the box they delivered today. (5 hours ago)
They coulda just knocked on the door. I WAS home.

Actually I wish they would just let me drive over and pick the stuff up myself. Their Edison Warehouse is only a 20 min ride.
Save them shipping costs. And me, time.

Anyway.
Bejesus!
This thing weighs a ton!
Whats it made out of? Solid lead? LMAO


ehhhhh I dont know....
I think it may need more wires too

Modular wiring is all the rage, but all it does is provide another failure point in the system. I've read many stories of loose connections being found at the PS itself with modular wiring.
Most of the people you meet in life are like slinkies. Pretty much useless, but still bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.

The reason PC P&C does not use modular wiring goes to power delivery.  Modular wiring costs in terms of added noise and more resistance to the power flow.  There is always a minute amount of capacitance in contact points for a plug.

PC P&C has a tendency to use large heat sinks, which makes the supplies a bit heavier than others, but it also contributes to longer life.

Hey, look at it this way.  If the power supply dies, you can use it for jack stands to work on your car.  :)
