    well it works great with all my hook ups I have installed in my gaming rig. so far I have had no problems with it. just upgraded from 400 watt to this 650 watt and the pc gaming rig is running a lot smoother and lot less heat. I would say I am very impressed with this TT 650 watt power supply.

    I needed to replace a power supply that stopped working. It was 850 watt Thermaltake. Thermaltake made it too hard to return. So far this one has been working well.

    Used this in a new Intel Skylake based system build. Installed no problem in my system. No issues at all with this unit. Only has one pair of PCI-e power connectors if that's important for you. My XFX R9 270X graphics card used both of them. You'll need an adapter (not included) if you need more for a Crossfire or SLI setup. This PSU is not a modular design, but that is to be expected at this price. Runs quiet and plenty of power connections for everything I had in my build. My only complaint is that there's a lot more 4-pin Molex connectors than I needed. All of my drives are SATA.

    I've had Thermaltake power supplies in the past. If it wasn't for keeping that power supply in another tower I wouldn't have brought this one. Thermaltake makes good reliable power supplies that at least my 850W one in my old system has not had any issues with it. I've been using this 650W power supply now for about a month. It hasn't had any issues and doesn't get that hot. Only drawback I have is that I didn't think about what graphics cards I wanted to run in my system, but I use GTX 980 single card in my system and this is more than enough power for it.

    This is a good power supply. I was trouble shooting a problem. After a bunch of research, I purchased a video card and a power supply. It turns out that it was the video card. I decided to keep this power supply instead of returning it. It is good, solid built, and quiet. It has all the connectors that I need. It has been two weeks and running like a champ.

    I purchased this power supply to replace a 300 watt power supply that came with my computer. I had upgraded to a more powerful graphics card and had started having issues with a slower startup and slower computer overall (especially noticeable when viewing videos). I had also gotten the "blue screen" a couple of times. I've just to got to say: Wow! This is a powerful power supply! My computer starts up, shuts down, and runs much faster and I am not experiencing video lag. I think the new graphics card was pulling too much power from my old power supply and it was affecting my overall computer performance. So far, I have not seen the blue screen again so I'm thinking the new power supply fixed that also. It was easy to hook up and I would most definitely recommend this to anyone needing more power.

    This power supply has worked as needed since purchase. Not much to say about a power supply, but it does what it is supposed to do, and was easy to install and has plenty of cables for various configurations. The only drawback is that it is not modular (extra cables that are not needed can not be removed), but I knew that when I bought it, and it keeps the price down by about $30-40. Very good value if your case isn't too cramped and can handle some extra cables.

    Good wattage. more than enough for how i use my i7 CPU. Low cost if you find on sale. Good price for an 80 plus bronze The fan is Silent. Fit well into the case. The flat cables were easy to work with and I could store the excess flat. I knew this wasn't modular when I bought it, but I should have sprung the few extra dollars for modular cables like my original. I marked that I would recommend to a friend but really would recommend a modular, gold platinum unit. Although this works fine its not what I really wanted-It was what was available the day I needed a new one so I may change it out for what I really want.

    My 6 year old 500 watt power supply went down. Have an aftermarket video card, several hard drives and use a few USB ports so need extra oomph but not a totally gamer setup. This 650 watt power supply will handle an upgraded machine easily. Flat wire does help a bit with cable management. Running silently and efficiently. Nice with price matching Amazon. Recommended.

    I was building a new PC and purchased this psu. It's super quiet, I can't hear it under full cpu load and that is great. The amount of connectors are more than enough and just the right length for proper cable management.

    I found this power supply a great choice because it does not require any adapters all the cords required for the installed hardware come with the device. i.e. sata, 6pin, 8 pin for graphics cards,ide. Very good unit. Plus the design and color fit any home build or if you just need to get more power for the machine you currently have. im currently running a amd r9 270x graphics card from best buy.

    This is the same power supply I use in all of the systems I build because I trust them. I had one finally blow out a few weeks ago after being run for 3 years without a break (or with a rare break). And when it blew...it kept working. We had the cloud of magic smoke, we shut down the workstation to clear the air, and then turned it back on like the idiots we are because we were curious. And the supply worked - just not optimally. It allowed us to run the workstation for a few hours each day to get work done on it and pull data from it just in case until our new supply arrived. And then we just pulled the old one and replaced with this same one. Buy it, and you will not regret it.

    This power supply is very good and easy to install but it is really made for gamers and not everyday users. Too many wires! Definitely not for beginners. That being said it has performed very well for my computer.

    It's a good power supply and easy to install and has plenty of power. It is a little loud when the fan kicks on but is overall the best power supply for the money
