When loaded heavily the Mushkins 4 12v rails combine into one single 44 + amp rail. It will most certainly run X1900 XT's in crossfire.

They will soon be releasing 550W, 800W, and 1KW . These will pretty much be in direct competition with PC Power & Cooling. The prices will also drop in a few weeks with this 650 watt retail around $169.

now that i did not know . looks like il be buying one in about a week then

I've got a very vanilla Antec SmartPower 2.0 500 watt PSU and I am pleased as punch with it.

Im not an overclocker, I run only one video card, and this PSU does great...

And its only $68.

awesome. i've been looking to upgrade the 380W that came with my sonata I. i was thinking about the sonata ii for it's better airflow + better psu, but then i decded to..."open up"...my case with a 75mm holesaw drill bit and a new exhaust port + fan and look for a new psu. i think between the power hungry prescott CPU, my pig ofx gfcard (x800xt AIW), four eide devices and four fans (2x120, 1x80, and cpu fan) that i may be pulling nearly all of the 380 watts that ol' betsy has to offer.
