[Gerard]

Considering orderingone of the following:

Akasa Ultra Quiet 650W PowerPlus Active PFC ATX2.0 PSU

FSP Sparkle FX700-GLN Epsilon 700W ATX2.0 PSU

anyone any comments on noise, reliability etc? I might be buying a second x1900 crossfire card in a monh or so.

Ive been checking ati's site, according to them the Antec NeoHE 550W Modular ATX2.0 PSU is certified to run x1900 crossfire.

If thats the case i dunno why people with 600 watt seasonics have been having trouble.

Well i just ordered up the Antec NeoHE 550W modular. According to THIS psu calculator its more than enough for the sytem im settings up, total of 461 watts needed if i want dual graphics cards. If it turns out its not ill be flinging a few abusive emails ati's direction.
