    Which store-bought PSs are reputable?

    I'm looking for a 350-400W supply to replace a 200W; I'd prefer to get it locally, but don't really know which vendors are particularly reputable.

    I have a credit at CompUSA so if they have one that you'd feel comfortable recommending, please let me know. Radio Shack is OK too, and I'm sure there are ones available through local builders.

    CompUSA

    Thanks,
    Andrew
    A good way to threaten somebody is to
    light a stick of dynamite. Then you call
    the guy and hold the burning fuse up
    to the phone. "Hear that?" you say.
    "That's dynamite, baby."

    I know CompUSA carries at least one good brand, Antec, and I think I've seen an Enermax PSU too. Either would be good.

    CompUSA has some alright stuff. but u would find it to ur benefit to order from a online store to save a few dollars. places like newegg.com, sidewindercomputers.com, zipzoomfly.com and svc.com just to name a few good online companies.
