Got a reply from Novatech saying that the thermaltake TR2 has been discontinued.

Having a search around for an alternative, but as I wasn't exactly sure what made the thermaltake one better than other 550w PSU's, i'm still at a bit of a loss. Any chance you could recommend one? or at least what I should be looking for?

Should have all the other kit within the week :D
 
Tagan and enermax and seasonic are all good reliable makes of PSU very well put together and have pleanty of grunt in my experience.... you cant go wrong with any of those.
 
Try this it's a good PSU with a lot of power for the price compared to 63 pounds for the 550W version! (for some odd reason). If it's too pricey, try this PSU it's a superb deal for the price. On top of that, it is a quality PSU with a lot of bang-for-the-buck.
 
Cheers!

I ended up having to get a different case, and it happened to come with a 450w PSU. It'll be crap I know, so i'll probably order one of those suggested within the week. just want to get it all delivered and get stuck in! Feels like an age since I built a PC so it should be interesting.

Thanks again for all your help guys. Hopefully by the end of the weekend I'll have some pics to put up and show how much you helped :D

Think I might stick around on techspot and try and give something back if and where I can help.

Thanks again!
 
Am glad we could be of service! It would be cool for you to stick around, im only new to the community myself but im sure the more the merrier
 
Ooooooooooh!

Guys!

One word. Hubba! Everything's up, running and running like a charm! Well, almost. Windows seems to have some stability issues, strangely, but i'm sure i'll get to the bottom of that.

There will be pics on the way so I can show you your good work :p They would have been earlier (on friday night when i made the build) but I kinda got caught up in a few other things... Oblivion, Company of Heroes etc, drooling at all that candy! I can asure you they are on the way :D

Even my dad's pushing me to build a new one for him. Ah well, gotta take the rough with the smooth :p

Cheers!

Grats Omni, Hope to see some pictures of your gameplay in Oblivion / Pictures of the case & insides ( Always like to look at computer insides ;) )

If you need any extra help for building your dad's computer then you know where to ask :D
