How about this one, could get if for 581 SFR: http://www.1000ordi.ch/docs/30161_en.pdf

Or this one, cheaper, 499 SFR: http://www.performance-pcs.com/catal...ducts_id=21124

don't waste good money on that kind of PSUs unless you're gonna put 3 cards inside the case and half a dozen drives and a truckload of USB devices. One 750W unit is more than enough, and cheaper!!

Don't worry... was just about that single 12V rail up to 90Amp. Question to you please: do you get your HD3870 clocks with the original bios, and how do you cool the card? thanks

ok, I get it I have 60A single-rail. You think I'll have problems feeding one of the newest Quads? don't think so

Anyway, about the 3870. Stock clocks are 800/1200 since it's an Extreme/PCS version with Zerotherm cooler thing (this one: http://www.powercolor.com/Global/pro...roductID=1632). It says 1170Mhz for the memory clock but mine's at 1200... don't ask me why...
The zerotherm solution is quite effective. I got 30ºC idle on vista 64 desktop and 45ºC full load.

I didn't flashed the unlocked BIOS, so the vcore is locked at 864Mhz.

I realised that my sig was not accurate about the 3870 clocks. Fixed now.
