the thermaltake power supplies are absolute crap. Ive went through 2 w0009r 420watt purepower's in the course of 6 months. The first died during a thunder storm which two cheaper computers with generic supplies lived through. I chalked it up to the storm and went out and bought another. The second died after 3 months of use and was hooked up to a high quality surge protector and was being run well within its limits. Recently it just refuesed to turn on, you could faintly hear it running but it was supplying no power out of the connectors.
Thermaltake gives no warranty's at all for these PS's and all though they appear high quality and deliver the necessary power, their reliability is terrible and obviously there quality control needs serious work.
Now im am using an Antec 400watt solution series which runs flawlessly so far. Antec give a 3 year warranty with their PS's in my opinion that is worth the extra 15-20 bucks.
I hate it when companies like thermaltake give off the impression that their equipment is high quality enthusiast stuff, when it is really poorer quality than some of the generic stuff out there.:disgust:
