I've got a core i7 920, 3Gb 1600Mhz ram, Gigabyte UD5 mobo and looking to get one, then a further one in future, of the above cards - which PSU would you recommend to handle this? I have been looking at the PC power and cooling / Corsair 750's so far...
I believe either of those PSUs would be fine. Also consider Enermax :)
Corsair do some very nice PSU id highly recomend them and userally you can pick them up at nice prices
I wouldn't go below 750W though on power as that system will drain alot of power and you don't want ur PSU near full capasity as they lose efficentcy when that happens
Oh dear. Neither of these statements are true. 600W PSUs from good manufacturers are perfectly capable of handling 2 Video cards; 750W PSUs have been tested with Quad SLI. And PSUs tend to perform more efficiently when under a decent load.Quote:

I'd choose the Corsair HX620 instead, simply because of its modular capabilities.
ENERMAX INFINITI 720W, modular and rock solid!
both are good psu's but both rmas are handled in holland.
I personally would go for a zalman or a seasonic (what corsair's are anyway) as they both offer uk rma. 2weeks and £20 shipping is not fun
Not all TX's are seasonic... most are CWTQuote:

And you can RMA back to the e-tailer for the full duration of the warranty...
In my experance 99% of etailers after the year is up they tell you where to go!Quote:

Scan are very helpful - I think they would be happy to RMA for the entire warranty period.
Been waiting for an updated version of the Corsair PSU table :D
