    I've honestly never had any issues with one of those adapters. The only thing that sucks is you have an extra power switch to deal with attached to the adapter, so that's one on the motherboard, one on the adapter and one on the actual power supply, talk about switch protection :P

    No troubles here, either. I have a 486 w/ ATX case & power supply using one of these adapters. I also installed a latching power switch to complete the ensemble.
