Enermax 550W PSU + GIGABYTE GA-965P-DS3 LGA 775

[Fungalberry]

Hello,
I was wondering whether anyone out there was using an Enermax 550W +12@36A PSU with a GIGABYTE GA-965P-DS3 LGA 775 motherboard due to a review saying:

Cons: This PS has a compatiblity issue with Gigabyte DS3 motherboard. If you are gonna build a system with DS3 board, Don't buy this PS. Never works with it.

I personally don't see any way this combo could not be compatible...a power supply is a power supply, it has a 24-pin connector, the DS3 has a 24-pin connector. Just want to make sure, I think this guy was stupid. A lot like the guy who thought a particular power supply was great due to all of the air it blew inwards on his components... 8O

Thank you.

To be safe, I would buy another PSU.

There are so many PSU's, why take a chance.

But as you said, just because there is a bad review, dosen't mean you will have a problem.

I would buy another PSU, but this one specifically is a single-rail, inexpensive, and powerful power supply (+12@36A), and I would prefer to go with something well known and workable than a brand X component. I emailed Enermax (GIGABYTE requires that you buy something of theirs before tech support), and they said that they can't think of any problem with the two of them. I dunno. I'll look into a reputable like-wise power supply.
