RE: cMP PSU Recommendations: Better, Best... and UNOBTAINIUM

hi Grant
after experience with 6 cmp PCs in different combination of SC PSU MB and condensatormods:
1. (IMHO) the best PS was the antec , but fan is loud and i changed it.

2.best sound card are juli and asus xonar d2x. the asus has the possibility for an external powersupply and i put a big analogue PS with 20000µF before it .it provides much more dynamics and resolution. asus only runs at 44Khz because of asio4all, but for me that doesn't matter.

3.the condensators are a must.There are pictures in the other thread.
4.the most laid back i achieved with old Mobos with low frequency CPUs.(400 to 600) but they have no dual core and can't be cmbinated with the SSE3 cplayversions.so it is a compromise.you always have to sacrifice something.

5.if you don't need upsampling the new atom 330 dualcore with the esi Juli is a dreamteam.
i hope this helps
bye
alfred
