" If your motherboard and components are being supplied poor-quality power,
you will have problems that you wouldn't have if they received proper,
high-quality power. If you plan on using your PC heavily, or if your data is
important, or if you are looking for upgradeability in the future, you must
pay attention to power! Power issues are responsible for more PC problems
than probably any other single source, even though most people don't realize
that the power is responsible. "
