Thermaltake have clearly pulled out all the stops in this catagory. The Purepower comes with a nickel plated reflective finish, sleeved cabling, gold fan grill and easy grip molex connectors. The designers were obviously going for a 'classy' look with this power supply, as no UV/LED 'bling' has been added.
The reflective surface of the power supply is easily marked by finger prints, which can be a bit of a pain. However, a swift buff with a duster and everything is restored to its former glory.
A nice touch would have been to include a cloth in with the package (as seen on other reflective PSU's), but its no biggie as i'm sure we all have spare cloths laying around!
The honeycomb grill on the back of the PSU is one of those things that grows on you over time. Personally i prefer the old look 80mm fan on the back which can be seen in Thermaltake's 680w series PSU, but i'm willing to bet that this layout gives equal, if not better cooling/noise performance.

Ooh, very nice review. Nice to see that at least one TT PSU can do something 
Just a thing about the prices, I think we should include USD, GBP, AUD, and EURO prices so it branches out to everyone. Just an opinion though.Quote
