Antec Power Supply

Hello all of you

I have a question about a Power Supply what i'm gonna buy.
I want to buy the Antec True Power 480W True Blue (seems to be good for
overclocking) for my mainboard Asus A7N8X Deluxe where i a have an Athlon XP
3000+ installed.

But i have noticed that there seems to be two versions of these Antec's.

I found an interesting price at a Austrian website for the Antec Blue 480W
but saw a difference in price between that one and the Antec True 480, which
was cheaper then the Blue. But i knew from Dutch stores, that the True Blue
is more expensive then the True Power, so i did a search on other sites in
Germany and Austria and i discovered, that there are Antec True's and Antec
True Power's.

This is confusing, so i mailed with the retailer of the Austrian site, who
mailed me back with the answer that the difference the ampère's are. True
Power's do have more ampère. So now i am wondering if there are also two
version of the Blue.
Is there the ANTEC TRUE BLUE (TRUE POWER) 480W and the ANTEC TRUE BLUE
480W????

I can't find anything about this at the homepage of Antec, so maybe one of
you can give me that information, because I want to buy a True Blue with the
same capacities of the True Power.

TIA
