You don't see a problem with a $1000 CPU selling for just $255? or a 750W PSU selling for just $66?
Oh, they're from EBAY? I'm sure everything will be fine...lol

"i got a deal from ebay on a new TK700 watter"
When it comes to PSUs, you generally get what you pay for. What is a "TK700 watter"?

Hi Jam
http://www.thermaltake.com/product/...
sry i always forget,here we get a good deal because of the $:£ ratio.
due to the sad lack of any decent brands available in the shops here i tried ebay, i got lucky also 2gig ocz sli for half uk price, i cant fault you guys for ebay.
Were stung every time in the UK for top price usally as an example its 1:1 $:£ (like ps3)
Tk seems to be more available on ebay.uk personally cant fault the brand im running a 680i mobo so didnt want to be disapointed with psu related faults like i had with ennerm@x.
I may call on your skills later after hols for some Oc advice
thanks
