The Thermaltake TR2 (W0093RU) is a 500 Watt power supply unit ideal for high-end multi-card systems. Perfectly blending power, price, and functionality, and compatible with the ATX12V 2.0 standard, it's a sharp value and a powerful player. The high efficiency design (which saves power) and the large 120 mm fan keeps it up and running under the most strenuous circumstances. The unique design and position of the fan optimizes airflow while reducing noise. The side air vents and mirror-casing design further increase airflow and also enhance cooling considerably.
One main connector (20 + 4 pin), one 12V (P4), one PCI-E, eight peripheral, four SATA, and two floppy connectors are more than enough for all your components. Active PFC improves efficiency, and over current, over voltage, and short-circuit protection shield your critical components from errant power fluctuations. The LED indicator indicates whether the power supply is in standby mode (orange) or is running normally (green). The TR2 500W supports both Intel and AMD-based systems.
Thermaltake is known for steady reliable power and great cooling. This one's no exception.

Pros: I purchased 3 Thermaltake PS's, 2-500's and 1-700. These PS's are great. Very quiet, well built, nice paint, and fits perfectly. What else could one ask for? Oh yes, a five year warrenty...done! Thermaltake is the only campany that I have found that offers that. If you need more power the 700 is very nice, heavy too. Lots of plugs and power. I spend hours researching before I buy anything and this power supply is one of the best I have found.
Cons: I wish I had spent the extra bucks and bought the Tt Toughpower 850. SLI duo is in my near future.
Overall Review: I recently built 3 home PC's from scratch and Newegg did an excellent job with instock items and of course their lightning fast shipping. Thanks Newegg!!
