Gibbo

Just wondering if you have having problems locating the said PSU:

Tagan Quad SLi Approved 900-1100W ATX2.0 PSU

You spec it in one of your pre-built systems but I notice that it is currently on pre - order only , is the lack of availability of PSU the cause?

Just wondering if you are planning on getting these for seperate consumption and if you have a date of availability or price?

Dont think there are any similar posts asking this or that it breaks any rule but please delete if necessary and accept my appologies.

What in gods name are you going to do with 1kw of power?
I know these fancy quad sli benchmarketing things take some power, but thats insane.

1KW man! No wonder the nations energy is running out!

unless your building a quad Xeon or opteron system and 10 hard discs then it wont be needed.

It's not all about watts it's about how many 12v rails and how many amps you have on them, it's quite important when running a dual card setup (especially power hungy X1900 series crossfire).

Just cos it is rated at 900w doesnt mean it is using 900w all the time. If you used one to power a celeron system it would probably use less power than a cheap 300w model due to being more efficient.

I saw these in this months CPC mag, come in their own suitcases as well.

Gonna be about £165 i think?

If I add up all my old psu's I have over 1kw, save one good one for the motherboard and use the old ones for everything else

Playing with the idea of a crossfire system, and I have always liked Tagan's and this is their next model up after the 580w designs that OC have ( which arent enough for Xfire)

I know people have recommended sparkle 700w and evne OCUK are using them in their other prebuilt rigs, I just think 700w is too near the borderline for me and i would prefer a larger margin for error.

Also if it takes two months to get them in, I can start saving now

I have a Tagan 480w powering my rig now and its a real quality piece of kit imho

well 580w isnt enough for crossfie and dual core

 

[Logan09]

well 580w isnt enough for crossfie and dual core

It isn't!?!

 

[Rob43]

well 580w isnt enough for crossfie and dual core

You sure about that,would'nt a tagan 580w be able to handle both,no clocking of course

 

[a1ex2001]

580W will easily handle dual core and crossfire and some overclocking, provided you've not got dozens of hard disks and optical drives! people are truly mad thinking they need like 1kw!

The Tagan 900 and 1100 are in stock !!

Nice prices too considering the Turbo Cool 1KW unit goes for around £350.

Hi there

Tagan 900W was a faulty batch so nobody has working ones....

Tagan 1100W we have 1-2 units which are for system builds only!
