my systems dont even break 350W, so 700W is fine for MOST users.
I just hope these are a modular stealthX, and not like the original modstream... they were very weak in comparison to the then-popular powerstream.
And we where talking about how they boast SLI/Xfire setups when the top wattage they have is 700watt. I dont think it would handle an OCed quad, OCed 9800GX2, 4gig of ram, and a few HDs in RAID all that well.
you've simply fallen intro a trap with thinking you need massive PSU's... you dont. as was said by sneeky, wizzard reviewed a 4870x2 on an OCZ 700W - you think he'd notice PSU issues, eh?
So, I'm wondering what about the 700Watt version of this? 2x8800GTX max?
I've ran 8800GTX SLI off a 600W gameXstream with no problems whatsoever (i forgot to measure the power usage, sorry). People over-react far too much with this wattage business - the only reason people reccomend high wattage units is because they're often better QUALITY.
