www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139021At an initial $84.99 it's even cheaper than the Corsair CX series model of the same 750 watts; plus free shipping! Then factor in the $25.00 mail-in rebate, net $59.99 for a Corsair brand power supply. Not bad for a unit that would power just about any game machine we'd build for RoF, single or SLI video cards. The cables are not modular (removable) but are the high Corsair quality. I got one to put together a Frankenstein machine out of leftover parts. Personally I'm off of the Thermaltake brand power supplies, at least for the cheaper ones; they have some pretty impressive specs but word is they: 1) can't meet their advertised performance specs, and 2) fail a lot. Apparently they are just re-branded Chinese units (no kidding).

That's my power supply! And I paid about $40 more for it. It is a good unit, but if I was to do it again I'd go for a modular or semi-modular one. The shielded cables are nice, but there a LOT of them (which is good)...fortunately I had room in the case, but if you're not in a big case it could get dicey. Still, I'd recommend it to anyone building or replacing. At that price it's a great deal.

Hehe, thought it was Can't figure our why they're selling the TX series 750 cheaper than the CX series 750. But why look a gift horse in the mouth?

Wow, the price is now $109.99, with only a $10.00 rebate!
Just goes to show you how you have to strike while the iron is hot!!
But for those still looking, the Corsair CX750 is still a decent deal at $89.99, with the same $10.00 rebate.
