Thanks "pullyalater" for the find...

I got 2 of the Ultra 500 (without the modded cables) for $9.99 at radioshack and they work fine.
Now lets get something straight- they are NO PC Power and Cooling 1000watt ps. But FREE!
I also like the Ultra Guarantee(3 years, lifetime if you register it)

For a reg comp they rule. I wouldnt use them with a 7900SLI..

I heard someone say they only had 20 pin power and were 1 rail but did I mention FREE!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[pullyalater]

i hear not. but im sure it beats my old bargain 400W ps

I have 2 of the Ultra X-Connect X2s 550watt. Its freakin awesome as **** and i couldnt ask for a better PSU. I got a super deal at Frys and got 2 of them for 50 bucks brand new. Oh yea thanx Mark for chattin w/ me on the case. Ill look at your next PM in the morning.

man the thing about radio shack is the one near me has absolutley no comp. hardware. so anything I want I have to pay shipping a wait 1 to 2 weeks.

 

[markkleb]

if u order $50 the shipping is free. I usually get my stuff in 3/4 days
And radioshack rebates rule, you get them in 3 days.

Here is a pict of the right side. At first I just layed a full piece of mesh behind the frame. Than I thought what if I cut it and fit it in each piece like BlueChrome. The middle piece has a little bending left but you should get the idea. I got bored so I painted them with Mirage paint (wish you could see it) The grills change from red to blue to purple...

Wow...I bow to you...thats gon be sick when it's done. Can I get that color changing paint, cooling tube (Couldn't find this) n shiz from Home Depot? If so...Does a can cost more than 10 Bucks?

Thanks.

 

[markkleb]

LOL , no to Home depot. The color change paint is from Kragen auto parts ($21 for the 3 cans, Base, color, clear) it comes in 2 shades, Red,Blue,Purp and the other is Green,Blue,Purp.

its VERY HARD to show on camera but if you do it right it is Beautiful. The tube I got at a local plastic shop, they just happened to have a bunch of 12" pieces so I bought a few. Its really hard to find it local but if you google "cast acrylic tubing" you should be able to find it.
