    @ Milos-stancene

    shure, even a very good 400w psu can handle that (only very few, though)

    edit: aah, youve got an enermax 500w too
    *looksonbox* hmmm, those 12v lines are supposed to bring 384 watts (dont believe that, though), so it shouldnt be a problem (no guarantee)

    I've been using a single 8800GTX @ 630/1900 since nov '06 and now I'm considering an upgrade. This card still handles all games with ease, but I'm thinking about picking up a second one for SLI. But now that the 9900GTX is nearing, do you think a single 9900GTX would be able to outperform dual 8800GTX's @ Ultra speeds? Or should I just sell the 8800GTX (nvidia reference card) and wait for 9900GTX?

    tough decisions...

    try to get rid of that 8800 gtx as quickly as possible (more money) and buy a gtx 280 (faster than sli, no issues), if youve got 400$ to put onto the 150-200$ youll get for the 8800

    edit: lol, those prices on ebay are so ridiculously high, so you can expect even more

    500 watt liberty is a decent PSU... just let him try it before going broke on wattages... I bought a Galaxy 1kw PSU to run SLI on 8800GTX , think the demand in wattage was so overrated, as that rig also ran fine powered by an Enermax Liberty 620... we will have to see when the reviews pop up what the real demands are... in case of instability it might be his PSU that borks out... only time will tell

    and that's again one sexy waterblock there, me droooooooooooools
    Question : Why do some overclockers switch into d*ckmode when money is involved

    Remark : They call me Pro Asus Saaya yupp, I agree
