Psychotic_god Posted October 1, 2005 Posted October 1, 2005 Has anybody seen this yet, I want to know what you guys think about this: ---> Click Click <---. I want it for the next rig I build , or maybe to replace the Tt one I have right now, but that would kinda be overkill wouldn't it ?

airman Posted October 1, 2005 Posted October 1, 2005 maybe if you're using 2 340watt pelts or something...else it's major overkill imho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychotic_god Posted October 1, 2005 Posted October 1, 2005 Thats a nice idea too. Having dual power supplies...what cases support 2 power supplies in them, I've never seen them before, are there cases specifically designed so that two power supplies can be used?

I was like w00t!!! 1100W...and two words came to my mind: overkill....and cheese! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How else would you put a power supply at the bottom of the case without it interfering with the motherboard? Is there like a compartement under the case or something?

apostolics Posted October 1, 2005 Posted October 1, 2005 they must be crazy to think that i would pay for a 1yr warranty that should be standard. and also they make you pay to have it stress tested and voltage tested i would be pissed if i knew they shipped stuff with out even checking it fiirst. i guess thats why u plug in a new psu and all of a sudden poooof all your cicuits are dead.

Psychotic_god Posted October 1, 2005 Posted October 1, 2005 Yeah, but $500 is nothing to laugh at for a power supply. I'd rather use the dual-power supply idea. Some people's computers cost what that one power supply costs . I though one of my friends was going to have a heart attack upon hearing I was going to buy 2 graphic cards at more than $500 each (him having no experience with computers of course ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamikaze_Badger Posted October 1, 2005 Posted October 1, 2005 What part of SSI do you people not grasp? This is designed for high end servers that suck up huge amounts of power, used to run massive RAIDs and quad dual core CPUs with more RAM then you have hard drive space. And, according to another member, the 850w had an overvolt problem with the 12v rail. +/-5v ends up being +5 volts, and that's more power then you're going to want. Like I said, if you have a RAID of ten drives, then it'll bring it down some. Also, through in some SLI'd $12k+ workstation cards.

Misuta_Yancha Posted October 1, 2005 Posted October 1, 2005 you could always use one of those to run like three folding rigs at the same time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
