JDoors Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 I can't comment on individual products or deals, but having read the site's policies it looks fine. They spell out everything necessary (though I didn't find their privacy policy so you might want to check that out). They supply an address and telephone number. They use secure pages. All good signs, things you want to look for. They list several "ratings" but anybody can make those up, I didn't track the ratings down, again, you might want to click on those to see if they're legit, second-party, unbiased sources, rather than just their interpretation of the data they have from their customers (if the ratings matter to you at all).

TheTerrorist_75 Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 xpcgear doesn't have that great of a record especially with graphic cards. That power supply is not a good one. The graphic card (BFG) from Tiger Direct is a decent one. You might find it cheaper at NewEgg. I haven't looked. Check NewEgg for a name brand power supply. They are listed here The PSU Thread.
