Hi all I am in the market for a new power surply unit and was wondering if anyone knows much about them who could help me out.

XFX nForce 780I SLI INTEL SOCKET 775DDR2

2x8800GTX
Intel Pentium D 3Ghz (going quad soon)
4x 1gig ram
and just 1 HDD but more later on

at the sec i am thinking of getting http://www.scan.co.uk/Product.aspx?WebProductID=446001
I just wanted to know if this is a good choice that will surport future upgrades and if anyone had any surgestions.
Any coments would be apreciated

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 biggrin.gif

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
