Quick question here. I was wondering if My PCPC 1000watt will run a third loop in my system...This is what I have
qx9650
dvdrw/2x500g/2x150g raptors
11 Thermatake 120mm blue led fans
2 cc uv bulbs
8800ultra x 2
2x 655 pumps/120.2/120.3/swifty res.

I want to add a 120.1 and another 655pump for the NB on my 780i mobo..So will I be starving the pump adding it to this already loaded system..

Your good, pumps don't exactly take up 100W... considerably less actually (don't know the exact number, but in the neighborhood on 10-20W).

that thing overestimates the power usage of my system...
but for most other things it does give you a balpark on where you need to be in terms of power supply capacity

Yes, that was with everything at Full 100% load too. Which probably never happens with me..
