Link: Ultra X-Connect 500w PSU

"The Ultra Products X-Connect power supply is the best thing that has happened to power supply units in years. Its innovation and forward thinking greatly simplifies things for the end user; be that installation or the passive needs of a case neat freak (like me)."

Yeah that is one sweet PSU.

I am seriously considering either one of them or an Antec Neo Power or and OCZ Modtream. I love having a tidy case (see my pics) and this epitomises it. Must not spend too much money, must not spend too much money....!

I'm either gonna get one of these or the A.C Ryan one posted in here. They both give good voltages and have great amperage on the rails

Hi Guys

The X-Connect actually failed load test shootouts at Tom's Hardware, I would recommend OCZ, Antec or Enermax in imho. I'll try and find the link and post back for you.

OCZ is also my first choice, that was the first one I bought and is still with me. I am now using the X-Connect coz I like it being modular and the bling factor. In any case, I still have my OCZ, so if X-Connect fails on me, I'll just swap my OCZ back into the case.
