I'VE HEARD IT'S NOT BAD

Etc, etc

Seriously it's had good reviews but is fairly expensive. I've heard a lot of good things about CWT (channel well) PSUs recently and Scan have them quite cheap. No personal experience of them (yet) though so keep asking / looking around if you don't want to risk.

Thermal take are brilliant, im going to make a thread about them soon.

I wouldn't say they were expensive... certainly alot cheaper than Antecs, and I always hear just as many good things about thermaltake psus as I do Antecs.

erm CWT r almost as cheap as qtecs, i know there suppost to be good (was it antec which rebrand them or some one else?) but how can they be this cheap?

Actually just re-checked the price and they're not expensive at all anymore... ?!? Last time I checked their 400W+ PSUs they were more like £80-90 not £55!

Are they still the same spec?

I'm using a ThermalTake 420W unit in my gaming rig. It seems to perform quite well.

mal , no , they were NEVer expensive, £55 at dabs for about 2 months now(though stock is hard to come by, looking at various shops and "out of stock" signs everywhere). The 430W have been £40-42 for ages, and the 360's even cheaper.

TBH, the main diff i have found between antec and thermaltake is teh warranty(well i'm assuming at the price there ain't no three year warranty , but i could be wrong). Nothing that i've tried, no overclocking, no anything ahs shown a diff between antec and thermaltake psu's.
