    I own 4 of the 750 watt ultra's & never had a problem. Been crunching with them 24/7 365 for over a year & no problems.

    Don't get corsair like everyone else !! Go Silverstone !!

    The Corsair tx850 should handle that rig just fine. (70A on a single 12V Rail 0_0 !!! )

    What about the Enermax REVOLUTION 85+ 850W?
    I dig the colour scheme. It would match the bloodrage perfectly!
    BTW, im switching to the bloodrage since the 'egg finally has it in stock.

    It's the double the price of the Corsair 850 with lower AMPs.

    A Phenom II + 790FX system with 8GB DDR2 and a HD4850X2 would give you 90% of that performance for about 60% of the price. You wouldn't need a power supply of more than 650W (corsair/silverstone quality) either.
    You could also go HD4850X2 + HD4850 1GB for tri-Crossfire, and get better frames than the HD4870X2 for roughly the same price.

    I'm not saying it would be a better choice for you. I'm just trying to show other options.

    the p6 are asus boards so people will buy them but asus has a bad bios with hidden settings and for $10 more u get a dfi with 8phase digital voltera pwms and every setting that u could want and more are there and dfi has been making it so that auto works for the more obscure settings. and u wont have to fight through AI booster randomly assigning a performance ll on the ram and then adjusting that in +- were u could just have a straight forward number. and the asus boards dont have turbo mode working so its like loosing 2 multis

    and ive been eying the volcan psus and the corsair 850

    http://www.jonnyguru.com/modules.php...Story&reid=126

    they are supposed to be all be on the same platform and the volcan is modular

    according to the tec forum a molex is limited to about 8-9amps. so
    what good dose 70 amps do if your single rails doesn't have 6-7 molex's ?
    at most single rails have what 3-4 molex ?
    I'm not sure you'll ever get 70amps threw those 4 wires ever lol
    HAVE NO FEAR!
