All that power and only 3 1080p screens? That's just wrong

Half whack?? How much will this beast of a PSU be pushed? 
I agree. Def should be at least 3x 1440pAll that power and only 3 1080p screens? That's just wrong

It pulled around 1350W once overclocked to the max.
And here's a little teaser for the cables to come..

My evga 1300 g2 can handle that

Yeah its a joke man!!!
Can't tell if serious...or...

Those cables are from a 8Pack Hypercube build and an 8Pack Comet build.
Haha, yes those cables were a troll..
But speaking of the Hypercube...
Coming soon.

Yes thanks.

Mines very similar build and pulls just over 1350w when gunning for it too.
Those gpus need volt control
My 1200w plat runs mine just fine though. 1500w seems a little excessive for Blacks.

Custom BIOS's enable better overclocks.
The 1200W platinum was limiting the overclocks.

I use a BIOS from Ed over on OCN. Even with all three running 1300 core and over 2050 memory at 1.212v, DRAM 1.7 VCCSA at 1.2v VTT at 1.2v and vcore at 1.43v the psu didn't give any signs of kicking out 
I know these systems are all about pushing to the limits but that's pretty much all you'll get out of 3 Blacks give or take a few mhz.
If you're looking at running those settings or higher 24/7 then kudos. Also disappointed you're not going with that colour scheme

Sounds pretty similar. We spent ages trying to sort out the issue when the system kept crashing in games even though everything was stable when tested individually. Then we brought out the power draw meter and found the problem straight away. We even tried another 1200w platinum, which is why we didn't spot it was a power issue straight away.
Here it is guys.. the moment you've all been waiting for..
It's finished!
And I'm just gonna let the pictures do the talking this time.
Enjoy!
The customer asked 8pack to sign this one.
Rag it!
Time to pack the monster in it's own flight case
Lots of expanding foam bags needed in this huge case
And finally the 8pack welcome pack that comes with all test results, user guides, and 8packs contact details for advice/support!
Hope you guys have enjoyed this build log! If you did, keep your eyes peeled for the next one that'll be coming in the next couple of weeks...
Also keep an eye on this thread for some bonus pictures of the customer's set up!
