Apparently not this one (Antec True430). Power factor this low may be
related to the fact that this power supply is a bit oversized. My
computer uses only 30-40% of the power supply peak rating. The
oversized 430W PS came with the Antec case, but a 350W unit would have
been more than adequate.
Sincerely,
Josip
