    Pros
    - Very inexpensive used (Found some for $10 shipped in the US)
    - Huge amperage, 50+Amps is not unheard of.
    - Very robust
    - Low ripple, high quality
    - Built to standards that far exceed what we may subject them to.
    - No need for 5v load, as 5v is only a signal voltage generaly in the 2amp or below range.
    Cons
    - Generally Noisy (Unless you modify them)
    - Hard to hack for 3d printing
    - Power hog

    I personally went with the server grade PSU. I can sacrifice some energy for the sake of a stable build with room to grow.
