Final Conclusions
It seems that Antec has another winner on their hands. This power supply performed very well, on par with all the other Antec products we have received so far. Let¡¯s hope they keep up there excellent work and keep providing us with such high quality products like this one. A lot of people will only buy high quality power supplies if they¡¯re experiencing problems. It¡¯s about time you realize that if you want to keep your system stable, especially with today¡¯s power consuming technology, you will need a good power supply like this one. Antec has added a lot of nice features to the TruePower II series in order to satisfy us, for example the double PCI-e cables for SLI. As you already seen, The TruePower II 480w performed flawlessly, even under a heavy loaded system with a lot of devices. I personally didn¡¯t think it would hold up so many devices under a single power supply unit. Great work Antec! I choose to use this product for a while, and you will see it in our upcoming reviews too. So I¡¯m giving it my personal Editor¡¯s Choice award. This is the first time someone is getting this award.


Pros:
* Great and stable performance
* It¡¯s Antec!
* Cool and Quiet
* Automatic 120mm fan speed throttling and special molex for Case fans
* SLI Support
* Dual 12v outputs
* PFC
* Good price (67$-100$)
* ATX12V 2.01

Cons:
* Only the 20pin ATX cable is sleeved
