Have you added up the power consumption for the 5V and 12V lines? Total ratings like 350W can be misleading. Unfortunately, I have yet to see a power meter designed for computer systems, which would hook up between the power supply and motherboard (optionally with test points to hook an oscilliscope up to). -- Marshal Newrock, Simon's Rock College of Bard Caution: product may be hot after heating -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
