    Re: Post your system.......

    I have the older version of that case (the one that both side panels and top panel is one, and slides off frontwards), it is indestructible.

                I have a sneaky suspicion that this "BQT 500W" PSU can't deliver anything near 500W.

                However after a quick google search I found that BQT is the acronym for the Be Quiet brand. According to a poster on another forum, BQT power supplies are Seasonic or CWT units. The innards look pretty good for a few of the power supplies that I have seen on the Internet.

                Maybe the BQT that you have is a fake. Or possibly faulty.
                I just do not see how a 500W Seasonic or CWT power supply can not handle an i7 rig yet a cheapy but reasonable 300W power supply can.
                Nah it's the dfi's mobo which causes problems, for example they won't work with enermax psus either, some weird problem with -5V lines...

                According to jathardwares psu listing 500W and up of Straightpower series are done by fortron but who knows. Since this psu still works with other HW i'd say to problem is with DFI...

                  FSP has been getting worse and worse now.

                  Their epsilon platform is slipping, most units based on them tested have out of spec rails and such.

                  Shame, fsp used to be good cheap and reliable psu's.

                              New antecs are FSP (basiq,) seasonic or delta (Signature series, some earthwatts, rumored that the basiq 550 is delta). New being since about 2006-7.

                                        Odd.

                                        I find it interesting that some people call their machinery (such as cars, planes, trains, boats, weapons, tools, computers) "She" or "Her" and also sometimes give them names.

                                        I invariably call a machine "It". Not to disrespect advanced technology in any way because without our tools people are just clumsy monkeys that fall out of trees a lot.

                                        My computer is referred to as "(a, my, the) Mac Pro".
                                        My car is well, "My Car" or "A Tercel" or "That red car over there"
                                        My Sewing Machine, Oscilloscope, Lawnmower and other great wonderful tools all have equally unimaginative names.
                                        I made a tool designed to test ATX Power Supplies under load.... never once have I referred to it as a person.

                                        Now Beanie Babies on the other hand.... that's different!
                                        Anything with a face around here gets a name.

                                        Maybe that's it? I give names only to faces?

                                          i once had one named "the alladin" (ga-5ax board with ali alladin V chipset).

                                          once in awhile the computer will get a temporary name: turd, F**Ker, PIG, Piece of s**T, s**tbox, you get my drift... sometimes i get out of hand. bad computer!
