  1. Been waiting for NZXT stock now for a month, hopefully they can manage to get a retailer in the UK who will stock them.

  2. There are so many power supplies this year its hard to know which one to get. the best price I suppose!

  3. they never targeted the UK before, interesting to see its chaging, at long last.

  4. its not a bad price for semi modular and 850W. seasonic do rock though, cant remember when they last made a bad PSU. their ripple supression is always good.
