One more question! What is the different between maxtop ipc-4032 and skyhawk ipc-4032? |

Hi, and welcome! We have reviewed a few Maxtop products, and the quality is good... they are just generally more budget oriented, basic cases. One of the cases we reviewed seems a bit similar to the one you linked...

Gaah, that old site format scares me!
Power supplies... look at Enermax, PC Power and Cooling, Thermaltake, and a handful of other big brands. So many choices now, it is best to find one that meets your demands and budget! Look for PFC in the specs though... |

No I never ordered from them. I got mine from ElectroSeller
And there isn't a difference, I THINK Skyhawk makes them, but don't quote me on that.
Also missed the PSU question. If these are for real business class servers, spend the extra $$ and get a PC Power & Cooling. It's worth the $$ not to have to worry about down time (due to failed PSU or flaky PSU). |

Do you think spening 70 bucks for a 550w Aluminum PSU with 3 fans is reasonable. I find that rackbuy.com is selling a 550 for only $35.

BTW: Anyone can explain what is RU? |
