Nah! locally Chinese restaraunts make a appetiser called 'Yum Cha'... supposedly from 'left over' unused ingredients, I suppose a bit like an Asian equivalent of 'pot-luck' stew anyways I digress... it seemed a fitting description of a no-name PSU most likely built with other's left over components

 

 

As for "ah, codegen!!!!!!"

 

Like I said, I was down to 3 main choices... not wanting another 'Yum Cha' PSU, disliking the ThermalTake unit & the having the Super Flower (sounds yum cha doesn't it? ) out of my price range... left only the CG item

 

Normally CG units only have a 12 months warranty, this unit has 2 years... combined with it's 'integrated circuit protection' it seemed the lesser of the two evils
