It's a "Don't buy because it's a firebomb" wattage

Well i read somewhere it was marketed as "real continuous wattage" but i still wouldn't get it. Quality is most likely very poor, will probably wont last very long and might be a fire hazard but i dont know since there are no high profile reviews on the unit i could find.

ALWAYS choose a known brand, there is a reason they are 20 dollars cheaper than the rest. Also if you are seriously putting together a build that needs 725 (which you do not unless you are going sli/crossfire) you have zero reason to cheap out on a psu. Actually let me rephrase that you NEVER have a reason to cheap out on your psu. Not unless you like having your house burnt down that is.

Sentey actually is a pretty decently known brand and has a lot of good PSUs (check out the PSU whitelist in my sig) but this is one of those cheap ones with a sleeve bearing fan and a weird rated wattage.
