Super Flower (AKA Hiper or Atlas) SF-500TS (500W TCO250W 3.3V max 28A, 5V max 50A, 12V max 20A, -12V max 0.8A, -5V max 0.5A, +5VSB max 2.5A) triple exhaust fan.
I had a 350-TS and was very happy with it but wanted more beef so upgraded to this model. However, matched with my 8RDA+ v1.1 and overclocking an XP2200+ toward 200MHz FSB is testing it to its limits. The 12V rail is extremely tight but the 5V reading is low even when not overclocking (4.87V) and at 193/193 it sinks to 4.81 idle, drops further to 4.76 under Prime95, and then flicks up and down 0.03V from this already low value.

Zalman ZM400A-APF 400W.
Stable, all rails are always ok.
Very quiet, perfect for my watercooled PC.

AOpen 300GU
A cheap 300W power supply for 30 bucks canadian... however, I find it to be stable and the rails don't fluctuate even when I overclock. Not too loud as well... :D

Antec Truecontrol 550W, which is necessary to run my T-bred B 2400+ stable at 11*200, without turning the voltage up a little on the 12V line it'd read 11.86V volts at this speed, I've cranked it up to 11.98V. (the Truecontrol lets you adjust the voltage on 3.3V 5V and 12V rails) I love it, even if it does run a little hotter than the Enermax EG-465P-VE I switched from, the Enermax didn't even feel lukewarm to the touch, just like touching any other piece of the cabinet. Oh yes, and the Antec has rock stable voltages of course, couldn't really overclock much otherwise.

Had three different:
1) no-name 350W (transfered to Biostar M7NCD), worked very well for a long time.
2) SuperFlower clone, 550W, 120 mm internal fan, died after two months of use
3) Macron 450W (noisy fan), has been reliable for almost two years now on different systems.
AXP2500+ at 212*10.5, Maxtors 120 GB and 80GB, Pioneer 16X slot DVD-ROM and Sony DWU-10A DVD+_RW, 2X256 MB TwinMOS 3200, R9700Pro.
