    "
    Conclusion:
    We have been using the Antec Neo HE 550 for about three weeks now, and it has been put to stress a lot during this time. Powering an overclocked A64, a 12v water cooling kit, several hard drives and optical units. Never once did we experience any issues with this unit. It doesn’t have many bells and whistles like lighting or fancy colours, maintaining a simple aesthetic design this way. Additionally it doesn’t have adjustable pots, which if we recall well only the TrueControl 550W unit from Antec had.



    However on the other hand it is exceptionally stable, extremely quiet and particularly reliable. The good design continued with the sleeved cables which kept the case from being cluttered and restricting the airflow and the 80mm fan sitting in the Neo HE was not noticeable at any time during this review; this is a very quiet power supply unit. It’s also worth noting that the Neo HE does not need a foolproof design for the cables, as attaching any cable to any connector will simply work fine. The Neo HE will also reduce your electricity bill by being more efficient than most other power supply units which is an added bonus."



    Sounds like a winner.
