    Shouldn't be a problem ... just verify that its a dual voltage PSU (I think most are), and that your plug fits. I moved back to the US from Australia last Dec., and I did just what you're planning with my desktop. It worked fine.

    dude, that is going to be one killer system. and i have to agree with you on ultra psu's back in the day, they were not the best. but i have to say now, they are coming along pretty good. ive recently bought a Ultra Xfinity 600watt for my back-up system and it powers everything i have in it. so yes, they are getting alot better. ive got a few friends that have the tarantula keyboard and they seem too like it. havent heard them complain about the keys yet, guess you might have gotten one that didnt get tested all the way.

    keep up the good work man, looking good with the parts, waiting to see what it looks like in the case.

    just curious is that your old case down beside your desk or is that a back-up system.

    It's my rig ATM. The one i am using to type this. It'll be teared apart for my new build. The P5B Deluxe and E6600 in it will be for my second rig Crunching 24\7 for XS Since it'll be my second rig, i plan on selling my second Crunching rig i have ATM which is an AMD s939 X2 4800+, Corsair 3500LL, Lexa case, Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe.

    Yeah, i have been reading, it seems that i am not the same one to have got such problem with the keyboard. I read a reply somewhere where a guy would have the same exact problem... He said he RMAed the keyboard and got a new one which he said was all fine. I have asked Xoxide.com to pay shipping and they don't want to. So that makes 130-140$ for that freaking keyboard... Anyway, i am asking them to test the new keyboard they'll send me so i don't end up with the same cr@p.

    Thanks for the kind words BTW Keep your eyes on the thread, lots of work is coming! If luck is on my side, no problems or anything will encounter my project so all should be completed in 2 weeks or so. Still, the Thread has been viewed near 1800 times already and the work did not even started yet!

    I have been contemplating buying the 24IN...

    I could purchase 2x 22IN for less than a 24IN, but I rather have 1 larger screen than dual screens.

    let us know how it looks

    Great thread, Patriote!


    Disrupfam
    I think its 150mm square and definitely dual input voltage.
    AC Input Voltage: 115V/230V
    AC Input Frequency: 50-60Hz
    AC Input Currents:
    · 13A (RMS) for 115VAC input
    · 8A (RMS) for 230VAC input
    Sure tempting at 1000watt. The 620 Corsair has the same leads for all it's modular leads but not the 24-pin etc. Might have to consider this psu in the future myself. Ouch $360au by the time it arrives. Still comparable with others here and with none fully modular 1000 units here.

    Same here. I wanted a res up, so a 24" was definitely my next buy.

    You got it all right buddeh! + I change parts so often and sometimes i need to work with parts for customers etc... So that Bench table with the Tuniq was a good buy
