Bottom Line:
The Thermaltake W0021 Purepower 480W Butterfly looked promising with its lights, the window and the multicolored cables until it blew up.....
I'm not too confident that this power supply will pass
test one or three, since test one takes the 12V to 20A and test three
up to 30A. As usual, I'm willing to give it a shot.
