    I haven't done the A/B testing thing, it's not a big financial outlay, so I can't be bothered, sorry.
    Did I read previously that someone said it stood on the top end (paraphrased!) In which case seems to be at a contrast to getting more detail?

    Then again, that extra detail may be down to the Maplin thing........

    I took me about half an hour, just to change the power supply, it's a real pain in the ass changing stuff around in my system.
    Also I don't want to try A/B testing, I think it's money well spent now, if do testing I may find one of the 2 items doesn't make any difference, I'll be dissapointed.
    If you want to know what the S-booster does, buy one......if you're not happy with it, return to Mark for a full refund, what have you got to lose?

    FYI The maplins PSU is an improvement over the supplied SB SMPS one, and the Sbooster is an additional improvement over that...is that enough to go on?
