Correct. I found a web page that lists who actually makes the supplies 
sold under different brand names.

I know the name on the box doesn't indicate who actually made the 
supply. Other than that, I don't know what what you are trying to say.

I previously stated my reasons for using Best Buy which has nothing to 
do with taking a risk. If I really wanted to take a risk I would just 
gone to my local outlet of Best Buy and picked up either the Dynex or 
RocketFish supply they have available.

Since I'm going to change the supply I want to make sure it can handle 
the two built-in HD's and a removable one all at the same time and also 
allow me to use higher end video cards in the future. I also want an 
80%+ supply as my machine gets a lot of use.
