I've had too many cheap powersupplies crap out on me, I'm not gonna let that happen again. I've owned another high-end PSU which was a Hiper Type-R but I gave that to my mom's friend because I can't use modular PSUs in my case.
My friend, Aspire.Comptech has this in his rig, he knows what he's doing with his computers, so I trust his suggestion!
I am planning on using this PSU in a future watercooling project with much higher end parts near the end of the year, it's a personal thing, for a build like mine, a 70 dollar PSU will do just fine.
Also the reason why I chose the S12 600W over the 500W is because theres only a 10 dollar difference after rebates.
