Re: Effect of the Power Supply on gaming?

Ok - thanks for all the info guys, I have another question though.

I don't know much about PSUs. I've never shopped for one, never replaced one. I have heard though, that there is a general rule not to buy cheap ones because they could crap out after 2 months and take your system with it. So how does one tell a reliable choice for a PSU? Any suggestions on newegg that I should look at?

Thanks.
