I built a couple of systems late last year, almost identical spec, with a Tagan 480W PSU as it seemed to be very popular.
This morning one of them died on me (verified it was the PSU that croaked by hooking up the other PSU temporarily).
Can't be bothered taking advantage of the 3 year warranty (I assume it involves shipping back to Germany at my cost), so I'm looking for a PSU to order early next week.
I am somewhat perplexed by the advertised Hiper "Type-R" PSU:
Komplett's link
Description says "Hiper Type-R 580W Black, Dual Fan, Silent 18db, 4xSATA, ATX, SLI, 20/24pin", yet the spec seems to say it has a (single?) dedicated PCI-E connector... so how is one meant to power 2 graphics boards running in SLI?
Or did I miss something...
The dead Tagan has 2x 6-pin PCI-E connectors, I want to know if the Hiper has the same (modular-wise).
Anyone know?
