allow me to share mine bro...

> diha nila sa Mandaue (sa balay sa akoang parents), ang pinaka dugay na PSU na nagservice kay "generic" PSU. combo during pag palit sa chassis... nag serve ug "almost 10 yrs". gi pa ilisan lang nko kay wla na mo function ang iyahang exhaust fan pero, ok ra ang PSU. nag provide ra siya'g juice sa rig for 4+ months bisan wla na mo function ang exhaust fan. ang gihimo sa akoang bro, gi butangan ug electric fan ang luyo para mo bugnat ang components sa sulod sa PSU... tuwingwingwing...

> diri nako ang pinaka dugay na nag service nko na PSU kay kani sya... Cooler Master RS-500-PSAP-A3... true rated @ 420 W of continuous power. peak power is @ 500 W. gamit ni nko since Feb 2008 till today... 7 years na ni siya nko nag service then out of the 7 years (and counting), almost 3 years na ni siya nag dagan ug 24/7 powering one of my NAS server and HW nya kay mao ni...
