Title should be "their first" not "the first" for that it surely is not.

It's a 20A IEC socket, very standard you just don't see them very often.

Well, they've since come out with a 1000W version of the CP-850, but it doesn't look like they did all that good a job of it.

I thought this was mentioned awhile ago, in conjunction with the 3200uF in-line caps it was supposed to offer? Or was that a one-off halo product?

Is there going to be a 1200W Signature version?

btw you can find the Antec TPQ 1200W for $225 shipped on buy.com. I think its a steal.

the cp line is the most stable power supplies...its power output is good for dual crossfire or dual sli..its not high powered..but for stability nothing beats it...

there is an overclocking version of this psu... its another version ..
