got an email from one of my suppliers that Thermaltake Power Express 250W arrived in stock.........didn't realise they had dedicated GFX PSUs.

i know what some of you think of TT but lay off. I need to hear from people that used/tested one of these.......would be interesting to know how they handle a heavily overclocked 7900 SLI system. I've seen reviews which are all promising BUT reviewers have a habbit of mildly pushing the hardware or just running stock to test these kinds of devices so probably isn't all that interesting and relavant

It works well. I have one and I was surprised it was actually quiet. There's some room for improvement, but I wouldn't recommend against it.

would be interesting to get two of these for a couple of G80 cards so that they are completely dedicated to VGA PSU

maybe 2x of these 250W units for G80 SLI as one wouldn't be enough LOL

was just wondering how you would hook up two of these


i guess you could probably just cascade them
