Thermaltake TR2 W0070RU 430W ATX Power Supply - Retail

Comment:
I've had no issues with this unit yet, or at least I don't think I have. The PC it's in started having some major problems, and with a cheap PSU it's hard to be certain of what is causing them.

I just needed a cheap power supply for a old ATX media server, and wanted to keep it upgradeable, and this PSU worked flawlessly. Great buy for this price.

I bought a pair of these for a couple of low cost Celeron machines that are used for web browsing and e-mail. The units seemed well constructed and aside from the 12V wire all cables seemed of good quality. The cables are wrapped, which is nice for a PSU at this price point. Keep in mind that these PSUs are not ATX 2.0. If you have a hungry C2D or Athlon these is not the PSU for you. But older budget boxes in search of a PSU replacement are a good fit for this PSU.

Highly impressed with this power supply unit. Works silently with my case and works perfect for a media center unit. Enough power to easily double as a workstation PC

Well, to me the weight indicates the quality of the PSU. However for the last 6 months, I have no problem with this PSU. I use this PSU on my SLIed video card, TV-Tuner card, Sound Card, 64-bit MOBO, 2 DVD-drives/RW, 2 HDs and 5 fans. Imagine for the price you pay, u get to use all of these devices plugged in. And not to mention I replaced my $200 PSU to this one coz it died on me within a year. Lost receipt, no warranty so bought this one.

This is an awesome power supply for the money. It has the 3 year warranty, 430W is a decent chunk of power and its relatively quiet. I've bought several of these and have been very happy with them.

For the money you can't really beat this PSU. I've been using it for about 5 months, and haven't had a single problem yet. My processor and graphics card are both overclocked, and I still have zero issues.

Comment:
When I need a power supply for an aging computer and the requirements are low, this is was the power supply I chose many times. So far every computer I have put one in has worked very well and I have zero complaints.

Ce PSU avec 18A sur le 12V a tout ce qu’il faut pour alimenter un PC de base à moyen. En fait il est à éviter si le PC est suréquipé (si on a plusieurs HDD et lecteus/graveurs) et/ou possède des consommateurs énergivore (tel que carte graphique qui consomme beaucoup ou cartes graphique en SLI). À $47 le prix est correct et comme je l’ai acheté en spécial à $39 là ça devient vraiment intéressant.

I have had this for sevral days. It does the job and was inexpensive. It looks a bit cheap but better than the real cheap one. It is good..

Comment:
Had this psu one year now for $38.42 at NICX and it still works.Very quiet, Heat range is OK but I am not a gamer. For the price what can you buy now days that lasts for over a year.

I bought this for my radeon x850xtpe video card which needed a connection to the power supply, This power supply has been running strong with no issues so far (9 months). Great buy, highly recommended!!!

Comment:
All I can say is wow. For the sale price you just can't go wrong. I've seen several people take stabs at this power supply but have absolutely no complaints. Several websites have given this PSU a very acceptable review. Obviously this power supply is not made for high end gaming machines but it fills the void between Generic PSUs and highend PSUs nicely. If you're on a tight budget, I'd say heavily consider this mated with cheap tower. It's near silent performance alone is worth the money.

This is a nice power supply for a normal user.however if you plan on using any high end graphics card,you should look elsewhere.This psu does not have duel +12 volt rails.

Comment:
Its a decently priced power supply and i MIGHT buy it if i where bulding a system and selling it but for knowlege about power supplies and ifyou want to keep the computer this has the potential to kill the life span of your computer ( and individual parts ofcourse) wouldnt really reccomend it for anyone a wanting a demanding system or a ssytem to keep...would move on and spend atleast 100. ive sold one, in a system..2

Comment:
I purchased this to replace a fried PSU in a friend's computer. It is an older machine, so its power demands aren't high. This power supply worked great, and got things up and running again for a reasonably cheap price.

Comment:
This looks way better than a generic psu. As most RAM failures are because of bad PSU, well, guess what I will do next time I see an unknown branded psu ? yeah right, throw it in the garbage, and buy one of these.

Comment:
This is probably your best bet for power supplies if you don't have a super power hungry system. If I were to say something bad about this thing, it's probably the heat. In fact this power supply became my heating system for my room (I shut my rooms furnace and yet with my computer on 24/7 my room is still at steady 21C. My rooms isn't all that big though.)

Comment:
For a 430W PSU, this is definitely a nice one. Very good quality for the price, does the job like it should. I'm very pleased.

Comment:
Computer run cooler, All the fan speed are working properly on soltek board. all around good buy for price. Did get a little warm under heavy use. Still recommend.

Comment:
Bought this on sale for $39.99. excellent value.replace my Antec 350 PSU.it is very quiet PSU.For this price,can't really complain.

Comment:
This P/S is the perfect replacement for cheap stock P/Ss it will give you clean power with a max peak of 330 - 350 Watts. This is perfect for medium performance systems, but I would not recommend it to those using high end PCI-E cards. I have a EVGA 7600GT and this P/S has plenty of power during peak game play.If you are planning to get a 7900 or better get a true 400W + P/S. Especially ATI which use allot more power than Nvidia. upwards of 150W for a single PCI-E ATI card alone!!!

Comment:
Have a couple of these in systems, and for the price, its quite the decent PSU. and at least it has warrenty unlike generic ones. Tt gets a bad rep in the PSU market, but i find these ones to be quite decent. although, it does feel a little light to me. that could just mean a smaller or light heatsink, but it could also mean less/crappier mosfets and caps. anyways, for this price, can't really complain.
