    Question home circuit current limit?

    i don't know about you guys but most of my circuit breakers are 15A so isn't the safe limit for home wiring like 1800 continuous watts for a single outlet?
    dedicated pc circuit anyone?

    i thought most people do have dedicated pc breakers? i have a 20a breaker just from my pc and pc related things.

    Sorry, in my book nothing is valid unless its in a case, and hence, a "normal" environment, by all means go nuts on cooling not a problem, but an open top setup with an OC ppl claim to be stable when in all reality inside a PC it probably won't be? Thats just unacceptable to me.

    I am sorry for embarassing myself that way...I do not know much about P$Us...and I have decided to sell my FSP 400W for an OCZ Modstream 520W for my transparent case-lovely UV cables!

    ummm no, infact I had to spend a large chunk of cash to upgrade the place with Proper voltage lines.(wired up the Cat6 network by hand)

    Over 1kVA toroidal... I smell burned fuses, you better have surge current limiting.

    220/230VAC...

    Yes... to it's own case.
    You CAN'T "first charge" a toroid transformer with ONE "click" if you can understand what I mean...... By doing this, it draws EVEN 47A+ peak from the 230VAC line.......You HAVE to "magnitise" it first and then fully power it on.....You MUST have two "clicks" to do so.....
    My English are not that good and I hope that you can understand what I'm saying here......
    In the input you MUST have 2 reles......Firstly when you power on, the first rele switches on and flowing the voltage through a of 10 - 22 Ohms/20W resistor to the toroid......After one to two seconds (with a circuit) the second rele switches on, sort circuiting this resistor and you're ready.....


    EDIT: Actualy there will be two toroid tranformes now.....The one I already have in my hands 1500VA and another one for the rest of the valtages which actualy will be about 1000 to 1500VA too....

    EDIT No2: Yes that's what the link you gave does....

    Thanks Vince but not selling a psu like this......It will be made for me....

    lolz

    damnit forgot you chaps are not in the US.
    115v/120v 15a is a normal household circuit
    very few~nil houses have dedicated high current circuits for pcs/electronics.
    220/230 would just ask to help newbs burn down the houses.

    Obviously Hipro5 does expect it to last forever... Otherwise he wouldn't make it that big

    Well, this is Hipro, I don't think it will last forever.

    please find out and let me know because I could use caps that last a VERY long time like that

    We use 220/230 voltage and 15 to 20 amp fuses here. No problems with wiring. Ofcourse our houses are made from bricks, not wood :P

    teaser pics... sorry for the bad quality, i only had my cell phone with me!

    look at it's size, i bet the transformer alone can't fit in a normal psu case!

    if this is your first night in xtremesystems,
    you have to overclock.

    There is a good way to revive old caps. Looks for it on the internet, and if you can't find anything I'll explain to you how to do it

    well I know about Metalized Plastic Film Capacitors, which are "self-healing"
    but I couldn't find anything about reviving old caps
