Re: Power supply build quality pictorial DISCUSSION
We would need internal pics to really determine that. My guess is that it is good for 200W if it is a typical gutless wonder, 250W if it is not too bad on the inside (a decent input filter, not microsized secondary caps, the "35" sized transformer)

Re: Power supply build quality pictorial DISCUSSION
Well, its got a non-existent transient filter, but the transformer looks decently sized, and the heatsinks look exactly like a seasonic 300W that I have.
Those small caps are BH brand, looks like another one of logisys's OEM's.
Re: Power supply build quality pictorial DISCUSSION
I've seen a logisys 575W run a 8800gts sli'd computer running cod4 on high settings just fine. But the 575W logisys actually has a complete input filter and a bridge rectifier.
I can't really tell you if it will blow up if you use it without complete inside shots, but if you were to fix it up like I did to my 350W rosewill, then it might do ok for your setup
Re: Power supply build quality pictorial DISCUSSION
I don't know. I would return it and get a more reputable brand like corsair, antec, or even fsp. Or you could get the 400W delta that surfaces on ebay for cheap.
But it might actually be a decent psu, just we would need internal shots which would ruin your warranty.
Has a pci-e connector, lots of sata connectors that each have their own little cover, but only a 4 pin cpu connector.
There is also a 550W AcBel power supply you can get for about $15, but it dosen't have pci-e. Someone here has a link to the website that you can buy it from.

I guess new PCI-E video cards come with an adapter, so that shouldn't be a big issue.

Is there a warranty sticker stuck between the lid and the main case of the power supply that has to be ripped to remove the lid?
If there isn't, then if you want to take a risk just remove the screws carefully and take off the lid carefully, without damaging the finish on that power supply.
If there is, don't open it.

So essentially, he probalby just bought another 400W dynex.
At a slightly better price than the Dynex, along with what appears to be a nice black finish on its case.
