My PC unexpectedly died the other day, and I figured it was the power supply. I headed to Best Buy to see what they had, and picked up this unit. The installation was a breeze, the fit was perfect, and it works flawlessly. Not only is it far more powerful than my previous unit, it is also far quieter. I am very happy with this purchase.

While there is no true cable management (meaning 'modular') aspect to this supply, It was an easy install, quiet running and plenty of power and connectors for a mid-range (or older gaming) system.
This was used as a replacement in a clients machine....replacing the same brand and series, but smaller supply. Pay close attention to manufacture suggested power specs on your motherboards, folks, especially if you are running additional video and cooling.

Needed higher power supply to support a powerful graphics card. This one has 2 6-pin power leads for SLI if needed. Quiet operation.

PSU can run two GPUs and has enough watts to get it done. Runs fairly quite and low temp. No complaints. Got a great deal on it as well.

Purchased this when an existing power supply failed. I wish it had modular cables but I knew going in that it didn't.

Yes this power supply has plenty of connections. And it is very quiet.
Now I have my 2 SSDS & 1 HDD all connected.
It only took about 30 minutes to take out the old & install this new power supply.
I am happy with the power supply and recommend it if you need (or just want) more power & connections for your desktop computer.

This was purchased as an upgrade for a Dell desktop. Easy install and had all the connections I needed and then some. The flat cable design allows the cables to be tucked away more easily. Plenty of power for my system now. I recommend Thermaltake products as I have always had good long lasting luck with them.
