Reviews seem to favor it, and it has 3 years of warranty, so you aren't risking much going with it.

 

I have the 500B, and while that's a little higher quality, it's fine asides from the obnoxious fan.

if you have to insist you think for yourself, i'm not going to believe you.

I wouldn't recommend a PSU as cheap as that unless you are on a tight budget but it seems like the PSU is pretty good for the price. Check out this review for some more technical information http://www.jonnyguru.com/modules.php?name=NDReviews&op=Story&reid=384

yeah my budget is really tight, i had a $45 PSU but if i got the EVGA, I will be able to get an R9 270x, and replace a GTX 750 Ti
