Thermaltake W0319RU 850W Power Supply

The Thermaltake W0319RU PS is one nice little product, especially for gamers and techies who frequently push the envelope of computing. With this review, I would like to objectively review this product for its pros and cons.

As a prolific online gamer and video editor, I’ve put almost all of my confidence into Thermaltake when it concerns items like the aforementioned power supply. I’ve also used a couple of their PC cases, as well as different heat sinks that I’ve used in making both medium-grade and some high-grade PC systems from my home.

General Specs on the TR2 RX-850:

• It has the Dual Core/SLI support that’s requisite these days
• A very generous 60A output
• It’s in compliance with the EPS 12V and ATX 2.2
• It’s rated at a hefty 120,000 hours of longevity
• The efficiency is manufacturer-guaranteed 85%
• Supports the typical Intel/AMD configs
• It’s pre-loaded with x6 SATA connectors
• Professional-level internal components

I haven’t experimented with their water-cooling systems yet (as are really “getting-up there” in terms of pushing the threshold of gaming and overclocking), but I plan to soon and can’t wait. However, I digress back to the product at hand. It’s basically the benchmark of power supplies—one that other manufacturers should try to replicate.

You’ll probably never crack-it open, but if you are anything like me—you love to take things apart and tinker. With that said, it’s got internal parts that are hands-down industrial quality. The fan itself is smaller than you would find in—say, a corporate server—but that’s pretty darn moot point considering this is a consumer/small-business-oriented product.

All-in-all, the Thermaltake W0319RU TR2 receives a 99 from me—reserving that 1 point for “objectivity’s sake”. Many thanks for reading through my review and happy shopping.
