    Honestly,I don't know but I thought they were "80+"
    I buy them because I trust them.
    In 4 years and 4 machines on them never had one fail me.

    I have a 750w PC power & cooling too and it's very efficient imo.
    like 82-85% with Euro 230v

    EDIT : even better than I thought http://www.anandtech.com/show/2278/11

    last time i checked was for a ~5 year old 500w pcp&c psu, and it's something like 74 or 76%. might want to look into that...

    edit: oh didn't see next page, ok that's great that it's so efficient then!

    What about just running it headless?

    If you removed some of the RAM sticks you could reduce the power consumption even more.
