they're still in stock, lol...
I'm going to order another one this afternoon. I have no idea why... maybe I'll buy a 1075T/Asus M478 combo from MC for $199

Thanks for the heads up, just ordered.
I ordered one.
Alright, so I broke down and ordered one.
Although,
Has anyone actually had experience with the refurb models? If I had to guess, the replacement parts are "new and updated"; would this in turn make it an OCZ PSU?
I'm just making sure it's still seasonic quality parts
It came in, running, but 12v is measuring only 10.3v, by hwinfo32 & hwmonitor, bios says 11.88v.

Is it a coincidence that your wifes pc is called Uranus?
grrrrrr... that sucks! Both of mine are fine but slightly low but within spec.
BIOS says like
11.97v
4.95v
Rosewill isn't that bad just pick a higher quality one. My Dad had an Antec which crapped out after two years I replaced it with a Rosewill that's been running since AMD 939's came out. Just my 2 cents.
Just saw your update lol should have got the Rosewill instead of a refurb :P

Got mine in today. Anyone know of a really cheap PSU tester???? This was a backup drive and I really don't have a PC to take apart to test it
Bought one for me new build, better than the antec earthwatts I was planning on, 380w was pushing it for all my HDDs.
And I've always wanted a PCP&C!
Sweet, ordered two. use code SUPER50 to save a dollar on a pair :P
i5 3570K@ 4.8GHz 1.32v, 32GB Gskill 1866, Gigabyte g1 sniper m3

Silverstone 450w, no case
2560*1440@120Hz overclocked catleap
Steelseries G6v2+5600dpi modded logitech trackball
Guys don't trust software or BIOS voltage readings. Even a $300 mobo has inaccurate sensors, a $5 DMM from harbor freight is more accurate (yeah how sad is that).
Your system couldn't be operating if the 12V was actually 10.3V. It wouldn't be able to boot.
I should probably test mine. I haven't pulled it out of the box yet.

^^ That would be great if you could test yours. I just ordered one at midnight & am kind of leery about the Quality of recertified PSU's...should be just as good as new no? My 500W Silencer has proven to be a champ, I'm sure the 750W is even mightier!
I'll test tonight.

compared to what?
these psu's are not Silent.. not by far..
they use a single 80mm fan in the rear.
There great psu's but not something u want to throw in a silent machine.
I ended up paying 175 dollars for my 750 silencer when they first came out.
Fell in love with pcnc ended up buying a 1kw SR after that.

Tested, mine works fine. Sorry for not getting these numbers posted earlier.
12V rail: 12.16V
5V rail: 5.05V
3.3V rail: 3.38V
Quite healthy
And guess what... Directron STILL has more of them available. I wonder how many they have.

both of mine run beautifully.
the only drawback is the cables... there's a LOT of them, they're fat and long and hard to hide in a case.
But I still may grab another.

I've got a red 750W Silencer in my current build. I'm planning on a new build once I get some numbers on Bulldozer vs Sandy in April. Should I get it at this price now, or wait and just get everything together at whatever price it's at then?
This is a pretty killer deal, Can handle dual GPU SLI of just about anything out + a powerful OC'd system... for $40... with a Warranty... I am sure I just had bad luck and Directron is RMA'ing a replacement.

I am in for one myself. They STILL have them for sale.
