Saaammokin! I picked up an OCZ EliteXStream 1KW for about the same price (it's less now) but it seems like Corsair is ready to put on the pressure. :p:
Quality unit with that much power at that price? It's almost like stealing it.
Wow!
Get one if you bench 4870x2s! This thing is a tank :up:
I bought one and liked it so much I had to get another. Amazing how power supplies have gone down in price since the introduction of Corsair PSUs. They're really set a new standard of quality and price.
Im still not sure if this one is able to handle 3 280-GTXs in SLI with super-clocked Quad/Gfx card.
Anybody?
itd handle it no problemQuote:

I have the 620w, which I paid $140 for I think (and don't regret it one bit), what a deal this is...
Glad to see you guys are loving your Corsair 1KW PSUs. I bought one months back when a killer deal was going on. I got it as a back-up to another PSU (I won't mention the brand) that was a RMA DOA. Haven't had a chance to use it since the replacement PSU has been very well behaved. I've also been very happy with the 2 Corsair 750W TX I've used. :up:
I have a 750tx and its great I'm really happy to see they have brought the 1kw down a must for my next build :up:
I'm pretty sure power supplies have OCP (over current protection) that shut the PSU down in the event of a short circuit.Quote:

I just bought a 750watt PC power&cooling psu. I wish I would have seen this!!!!!
nice!!! wish the 620 had a 20% off aswell, oh well anyways corsair makes great quality psu's.
if any1 see the 620hx for 99.99 or less., let me know ;)
this has been a simply amazing psu for me. it's one of those PSU's you invest in if you tweak every minor voltage on your board and devices, all 3 rails (3.3, 5 and 12) supply a damn solid voltage even under ridiculous load!
yeah i had a dual core at 6GHz with high vcore and overclocked cards with this PSU and HX620 with my laptop, crt monitor, pedestal fan and light running off the same outlet and the peak power usage i saw from the outlet was just below 1000WQuote:
