Not supply junk for powering nothing
About half off give or take.
You buy at a crap-shot on junk for $20. Or you buy this for $20 EVGA 500 BR 100-BR-0500-K1 500W ATX12V / EPS12V SLI CrossFire 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Non-Modular Active PFC Power Supply And then it goes back up to $30+ in a day give or take. Good ol' New Egg once again blows it -- they go up, with the same unit, against Amazon for a dwindling WWW of "no tax" regulatory custodial status, how big you are or who you say you are to being selling within national interests -- but then slap on some arbitrary minimum fo r_their_ carrier shipping agreements, nationwide for the $7 to bring it your purchasing location, which consequently brings the price up to 20% higher than Amazon's individual states'-accorded taxation rate on its residents. Paid 30% more on my last one, EVGA's model one under at 450watts, earlier. So it works out to happen. And then there's my junk selection, a $15 PS maybe 750watts, which has only ONE 4-pin (sq) CPU auxiliary, little did I know, until one of my latest same-model but revised MB, differs over two to an expected one those auxiliary CPU supply-carrier cables. Two for meat and force, for sure, can't be any the worse for nicer, these days, with pushing for limits on a CPU class available just prior to the latest but more architecturally proprietary driven associations, and expensive, to CPU offerings. At least with AMD. There are --for the time being-- still some concessions and leeway to a practical marketing support for some CPU/MB hardware combinations. As they'll of course be next up to be phased out from supply manufacturing consideration, if not already so then or at best within that interim stage. |

The only reason I got it is a recension on non-Prime Amazon shipping, however long to undercut the rest for the holidays, Amazon is presently engaging. Otherwise one would find something, additionally to meet a minimum total purchase, from Amazon approved products, in order not to incur 33% added shipping before, as often before mandatory taxes, for all states, Amazon apparently has taken upon itself as a self-regulatory measure. If it were closer to $30 I'd likely have passed without a real demand. I also have late Amazon delivery notifications, recently seeing that among many Amazon facilities, the workers are walking out for inhumanity. In one instance, 800 job-injury ambulance calls were recorded over the course of a year, while a similar facility, across the street from Amazon, recorded eight. Been there and wouldn't last long after being asked to perform the ol' superman feats: I've a standing policy they plant a big wet one right where I say it counts. |
