    Why is this a recurring theme with low-end PSUs?

    I'd like to ask anyone actually familiar with PSUs why low-end units seem to have way too much amperage on the 3.3V and 5V rails while skimping on 12V amps while high-end units have more reasonable ratings on all rails? Also why are lower-end units usually the ones with multiple 12V rails?
