1000W needed really???
I can't recoomend enough the corsair range of PSU's. they come with 5 year warranty which is awesome I have this 1 http://www.ebuyer.com/product/114941 and its the business. Although I got it for £60 of ebay! --------------------  |

I like:
Hiper 880W Black 5K880 TypeR II 85% Efficient PSU - 8x Integrated USB Ports @ £123.77inc vat or if you really need 1kw... Hiper M1000 1000W PSU 8x SATA 6x PCI-E - 80plus certified 5 Year Warranty Hiper have a reputation of quality and if you're planning to overclock anything they have very staable power flow to the rails. I also own the first one and can't fault it in any way

only thing i know a bout Hiper is that my brothers broke (not sure waht though). But Corsair = real win
But on a serious point. spend decent money on a PSU its the basis on ur PC seeing as everything runs off it. anything budget will just end badly -------------------- |

Thx for ya speedy reply guys.
Unfortunatly a 1000w will be needed as a little bit down the road ill be adding a 3rd 8800gtx to my rig. I quite like the look of the Hiper 1000w but was aiming for a modular psu as it looks a lot cleaner and creates more room in my over crowded tower which will become more so in the future. Thx Wolf |
