I speak from recent experience.. ;)

oh...who pays your power bills? :D

I wonder when the PC actually will use 1000 W...isn't it made to just use power when it need it mostly?

Post by: Person264 on October 06, 2008, 17:28:06: I recon if i added another 9800gx2 to my computer i'd need at least 1200W. Unless of course you cant do quad-sli on a n-force 750i (the computer company seems to think you can, mind you they also think quad sli can work on XP)
