Default Warm deal on GS-550 (high shipping cost)

http://www.provantage.com/bfg-techno...u~7BFGT03K.htm

The PSU is rated at peak, but it'll do 450W continuous at 40°C and has two PCIe, fully sleeved cables and a very quiet 140MM fan.

While supplies last!

same price to Tennessee. It would appear Provantage is taking a page out of some of the less ethical sellers on ebay.

I dunno... I added some different items to my cart and everything seemed to be about $20+.

Maybe it's a new business model for them.

JUst did RAM and shipping was $4.95 did a 2000KVA battery backup and it was $28 and a Proliant DL580 cost $104.50. So its something. I would seriously call if interested in getting these and see.
