Generally CM is better about fan choice, I doubt they'll throw a 2200 RPM Yate inside the unit.

Especially when they have budget units with the D12SM-12's 1650 RPM models.

Newegg had the 350/450/550 for $5 cheaper than the G-Series units. So I'd honestly just go for them and ignore these guys.

It'd be fine by me if Intel started pushing towards companies actually following the ATX spec.

It'll drop performance some, not to have the V-Sense connections. On the other hand, it's not that important since most extensions are 6-8"

As for 16AWG, that's perfectly fine. Like I said...

Traditionally, the V-Sense wires are 20AWG but using something thicker like 18AWG wouldn't hurt the circuit in any way.

So you can use 18AWG for Pin's 13 & 4 v-sense connections.

You're right, I overlooked them as I thought they were NCC's like on the primary & secondary sides of the main PCB.

Mostly due to a color thing, and reading the review on my lunch-break today.

The solids are not so awful.

If they were the electrolytics I'd have to agree though.

That's a really solid budget unit.
About 40-45 GBP as well, which is a solid price on the UK market.

You'll pay for the ball bearing fan, but not better capacitors? But then charge $100 for the unit.

Especially when it's a basic group regulated design?

That's the main issue though; these lower grades of capacitors only seem to work on a 3+ year period when conditions are their best.

It's possible that BeQuiet's RMA department is listing the failure as some other component and thus on their records it's not the capacitor.

On the other hand, it could also just be a bold face...

I'd be happier with the products in terms of recommendations if they had Teapo caps; or better Samxon's.
