Two power supply's, actually...

The first one decided to cause the computer to reset twice randomly, and then wouldn't work at all. The power button just wouldn't do anything.

Then I dug through my garage and found one that was compatible with my PC. That lasted for a week. Now, if you plug this power supply into the wall or a power strip, regardless if the power switch to the power supply is on or off on the back, the room it's plugged into will lose power.

So now my computer isn't functional until I get another power supply.

Yup, I'll probably end up getting one off newegg.com

Other places like tigerdirect.com tried to get me to pay $40 or more for stuff newegg.com will offer for 20 or less.

TigerDirect isn't a bad site by any means...in fact the business I work with has a business account with the guys and they rely on a lot of parts that come through them...but there's always a better deal and other vendors to contend with.

For personal use, I'm more used to going to Newegg...although I got my second monitor for this rig off Tiger.
