    Must be one of the cheapest 800W 80 plus bronze units on the market.

    I like the price, but a non modular supply is hard to live with. I bought one a few months ago and I hate all the cables I have to hide. You can never really hide them that well either, depending on the case.

    Next one I buy will be modular, even if it costs £20 more.

    Thermaltake get it right, but not often. This is a pretty tried and tested design with nothing dramatically new to ‘mess up’.

    Seems like a good product at the right price.
