1. I know the 460W PSU is overkill but it worked out as cheap as a 150W picoPSU and it leaves me the headroom to upgrade in future. I also have a lot more confidence in Seasonic as a brand than picoPSUs, given all the scare stories about knockoffs. Furthermore, even 150W leaves a small margin when you see power consumption figures for a loaded A8-3850 system...
Not a reason to doubt picoPSU though - say what you like about knockoffs via eBay but if you can't spot a counterfeit when you see one, then don't buy things on eBay....!
