I've always enjoyed and trusted Antec's PSU's. Especially thier True Power line. I guess they are continuing thier tradition of making excellent products with the TrueControl line. How much is this PSU? I guess they just said "expensive" in the review. That probably translates to: "one whole paycheck". Thanks for teh heads up Skully.

Your welcome, The Antec TC 550 PSU goes for about $130. to $150.

yeah this 550 was a good investment, and way futureproof

Are the rails higher with the true control compared with the regular true power?.If not I can't see why bother with it.I am looking to buy one possibly.

here is a pic of my voltages in MBM . I have not checked them with a meter. This the antec 550 true control seems to put plenty of power, i have ran 4gig without my votages dipping.

samcolt,what mobo you using?.My +5 and +3 on teh true control are pretty steady but the +12 fluctuates a little 12.05/12.11 and seen it once hit 11.98 just the one time.I think its the IC7 that isn't as steady as the Asus boards.Abit boards always undervolt.
