My god, I can't believe you people. What corners were cut that make the Basiq that bad? STOP SAYING CORNERS WERE CUT! Unless you can tell me what Antec had removed, your just spreading FUD. PERIOD. As several links have been posted, the Basiqs ARE quality supplies, just nothing special. You won't get CF/SLI support, you won't get high efficiency, etc. For a system with a single video card and a couple of drives, this is an acceptable PSU.
Next, the Seasonic and Delta Earthwatts PSUs aren't that different. Yes, the delta PSUs are 22A instead of 17A, but big deal. They still have the same amount of total power available. Each PSU can supply a total of 408W/34A on the 12V rails. You shouldn't worry about Delta PSUs. They make excellent server grade PSUs, and make the signature line for Antec.
Last, the point of price has been made and it is a good one. While the Basiqs are good, if the earthwatts (or some other better PSU) is available for just a bit more, your better off with the better PSU. As Ovrclkr pointed out, an extra $5 is money well spent.
