I've spent the past few days with some people building a few servers with the below specifications. We have 3 servers with the hardware below. (They'll run Win Server 2012 and hyperv) I didn't select the hardware myself. The case came with some 480W power supplies that weren't worth anything. One popped and melted the power cable with a little load. (Luckily no other damage) Another didn't work and the last works but won't for long. It's been a long time since I've built a PC myself and I would appreciate any advice that can be offered regarding some new PSU's. We don't need anything special, just some powerful enough to handle each of the machines at full load. No graphics cards to worry about. Thanks!
