So there we have it. The Antec EarthWatts EA-500 500W power supply doesn't put out as much power as a lot of the power supplies we've been seeing lately, but it does put out enough for any one video card no matter how high end, and I would venture to say that it could easily support a pair of Nvidi
Antec EarthWatts 500 W provides one of the best cost/benefit ratios for the average user: it is a relatively cheap 500 W power supply that can deliver up to 577 W

great PS for budget-mid lvl gaming rig, could handle any of the single core vid cards without issue with plenty of headroom to spare. have had this PS in use under two computers over the years and has provided reliable effortless service in both. would recommend whenever it's on sale.

I've had this PS for about a year now and no problems whatsoever. There are 4 HDD, 1 DVD and a VGA hooked up to this unit and it powers them without issues.

Spotted my friend on this PSU, seems to be working as advertised. Wasn't too expensive for a reliable 500watt PSU. I'd recommend it for a single card system on a budget.

it's a very good power supply, for 500W, this thing will meet most demand on an avg PC. I didn't like the choice of color for it, it's grey, would had preferred black or red or blue, or just anything but grey. It's relatively quiet, as well as having all the necessary connections.
Decent power supply. I also have the EA380 version which is a solid unit as well. My only complaint would be the higher then normal price tag. But like the saying goes, you get what you pay for!

This is a very solid product. Check out the efficiency specs. This will run cool and provide excellent power to your valuable components. Should be enough power for most budget gaming systems. Check the specs.

Well I bet this is the same thing as the power supply come with Antec sonata 3. The case itself with PSU is like 80 something when on sale. This PSU is like 60 on sale.. Does that mean the case alone is like 20? Function wise is good, nothing to complain. However, the price could be a bit lower. You can find cheaper 500w PSU if you really wants a budget build.

I bought this because I want to make computer as energy efficient as possible since I run FAH 24/7. This PSU did not disappoint! The power consumption of my computer at full load went from 165w to 125w which is a reduction of more than 24%! My old power supply was an old ATX Antec 300W PSU. The three year warranty doesn't hurt either. Highly recommended PSU.
