    Here's a nice joke for you all

    I was trawling through fleabay psu section and something intresting caught my eye
    800W 800 WATT QUIET 120mm Fan POWER SUPPLY UNIT
    buy it now £23 + free P&P

    Yes it reeks of el-cheapo fire hazard psu

    for a laugh I decided to look at there listed specs

    +5V 30A
    +3.3V 25A
    +12V1 20A
    +12V2 20A
    +12V3 20A
    +12V4 20A
    -12V 0.6A
    +5V/SB 2.5A

    Now what's really funny it the way whoever made this has covered there ass, that thing maybe totally lieing about it's specs but it'll be next to impossible to prove in a real life situation and so it's probably not a fire hazard.

    How do I know that?

    Have a look at the great range of cables
    1 x Combination of 20+4pin (=24 or 20pin) for Motherboards
    1 x 4pin P4 +12v for Motherboards
    1 x SATA for SATA components such as HDDs,CD/DVD Drives, etc
    1 x 'Mini-Plug' for Floppy Drives, etc
    4 x 4pin 'Molex' for IDE HDDs,CD/DVD Drives, etc

    Yep that right this 800w beast only have 6 perifiry connectors, even if it could only supply half it's listed wattage max it'll be next to impossible to build a pc that could 300w off of that few connectors.

    That has to be the biggest joke of a psu spec I've ever seen

    I was thinking the same funk, but with 6/8 pins on the end, to power the HD4870X2's

    Ask him if it will supply the specified current on all the rails simultaneously! (and you might ask him if it is modular)
