Conclusion:
Who would have thought that 1000 watts would be used in
a personal computer system! Well, the fact is, most still
don't require this kind of serious power. However, for the
serious computer user and especially the hardcore gamer, it
most definitely is. With dual NVIDIA SLI and ATI CrossFire
setups becoming common place, a high-quality power supply
with lots of juice is a necessity. Also, most serious gamers
will push their systems to the absolute limit. This means
overclocking anything that can be performance enhanced. So
with a dual Video Card configuration, overclocking, lots of
HDD, fans, and other computer components, it requires a
wicked Power Supply. In these circles, PC Power & Cooling is
known as THE Power Supply to have!
