Qtec 
I know, not the best. The PC probably only needs 350, but its a 550
(I think its this one http://www.qtec.info/products/product.htm?artnr=13492)
And, the PSU still works on the new motherboard.
Not sure what the Amps rating is. |
As i had suspected - Qtec / Bestec both pretty ****e.
What has probably happened is they've used their random number generator to slap a 550 on the thing when it probably blows up after drawing 550 for a split second. The stable load is more important as i have said on here in the past - you need some leeway, even more for a Q-tec.
Probably the PSU has had a blonde moment and sent a surge through the MB - PSU will still work, but they just cannot be trusted. Just type Qtec rubbish or something similar into Google and have a look at the results.
