Editorial Review:
Product DescriptionTruePower from Antec is the most advanced line of PC power supplies from the company that has led the way in power supply design and quality since 1986. These power supplies feature dedicated output circuitry for each voltage so that each output delivers maximum power whenever you need it. To make sure these voltages stay accurate, TruePower also includes voltage feedback circuitry to improve system stability.Thanks to Antec new Low Noise Technology, system noise is substantially reduced, too. The power supply fans run at the lowest speed appropriate to load and conditions, controlled by an advanced temperature response system that outperforms previous solutions. Dedicated Fan Only power connectors allow TruePower power supplies to control the speed of case fans, too, thus reducing total system noise.

Rating: - No problems in 2+ years
I bought a Sonata case for the latest computer I've built about two years ago. All this time Antec Trupower 380S provided a stable supply of power, while emitting very little noise. No problems whatsoever.
The system in worked on: AMD Athlon64 3000 processor (socket 939 updated to Opteron 175), 1 (later 3) Gigs of RAM, MSI Platinum Neo2 (7025) MoBo, ATI 9700 video card, 3 hard drives, DVD writer.
Rating: - Great hardware but....
I have 3 coputer for audio edit(sadie5 ), this machines comes with that power supply. In one year I have change the all 3. This have a problem on temperature and explode various capacitors.
I test with other cheap power supply and no have problems.
Rating: - 380 vs 380S bundled with an Antec case
Antec actually bundles the "S" version of these power supplies with their "quiet" cases, such as the Antec Sonata. The difference between the "S" and this version is that the "S" version has only one fan, which is rear mounted.
The power supply was very easy to use, and quite silent in operation. Plenty of cables to hook up an ATX board, four hard disks, floppy, two optical disks and extra power to the Radeon graphics card. All with ample cables with no extensions.
Rating: - It seems to work now, but had a lot of troble at first
I bought this, not actually because my old P/S went out, becasue it was working fine. I bought it because of the Emerax style fans. It has good wattage, but my old one was 300. I needed the suck-fan because my box was getting hot and it could carry the suck-fan directly above the CPU(where most of the heat is). The case runs slightly cooler now. I had to use a pair of plyers and rip the metal on the metal stand where the P/S sat in order to line up the fan properly(The fan opening on my case was ... Read More
Rating: - Excellent PSU
Definetly a high quality PSU. Antec of course is a great name and although the True Power series PSUs aren't cheap, they are well worth the money. I would recommend to anyone looking for a reputable, stable, and quiet power supply.
