You've just purchased an i5 14th gen with 32GB DDR5 RAM, an RTX 5060, and a Thermaltake TR2 S 750W PSU. Many people have shared negative experiences about this power supply. Consider what you need to ensure your system runs smoothly.

Welcome to the forums, newcomer! I've heard a lot of negative things about them. What should I do?
If your system is prebuilt, reach out to your systembuilder to upgrade the power supply to a higher-quality model. The main questions are: where are you located? What is your budget for purchasing a PSU? If your systembuilder has an online presence, please share that link so we can review what you're getting in terms of build quality, aside from the poor PSU.

It's generally about the initial TR2 release, which hasn't been available for a decade. The version released afterward is comparable to most standard PSUs in OEM setups, though it depends on whether you're willing to invest in a $300 GPU and 181 watt i5.

The TR2 S model is exclusive to Europe, and if your builder is offering a PSU at a low price for a gaming system, what else are they cutting costs on?

I think the main reason people choose ready-made gaming setups is the cost. If rivals promote a comparable model at a cheaper price, where will those unaware buyers turn? After all, they might assume "one computer is just as good as another." Let’s try to clear up this misconception.
