It's most likely a Delta built unit, but other than that I have no idea. The Basiq line is about as low end as you can get from Antec though... I'd pass.

i would.
this is so solid and so cheap, that it's scary....and extremely hard to beat value...

and looking at the newegg, price difference is about 10$ between earthwatts 650 and bp550plus...go with earthwatts650, i say...

price difference is 10$.

Worse than even the old full o' Fuhjyyus SmartPowers?

I have an older FSP-made 500W Basiq, and none of its caps has bulged (CapXons) while one Fuhjyyu in my 500W SmartPower (not used nearly as much) has.

Re: Antec BP550Plus

Probably not that bad, but I have some high standards these days. Got one computer running a Signature 850W and the other running a Seasonic M12D 850W.
