Hey mates,
I was hoping for some help in finding a good psu to run two gtx 285's in sli. After doing a lot of reading on my own, I'm still not sure what's better 1 12v rail or 4 12v rails. Either way I'm only interested in completely modular psu's. Here's everything it needs to power:
2xgtx285's
i7/mobo
cd burner
dvd burner
blue ray burner
coolermaster v8
3 hd's
3 led's
4 fans
Please help! I'm buying this on the 10th. would like to stay below 200shells if possible. I was looking at silverstone but seen a lot of bad reviews.
 
I've just put a BeQuiet! 850W into my rig and can thoroughly recommend them. It's lowered the noise of the rig a considerable amount (compared to the old OCZ 600W) and the amount of cables it comes with are great.

It also has 4 fan connectors on the PSU itself - you connect one lead from the PSU to a fan header on your mobo and that then allows for auto control of any PSU connected fans. It also has all connected fans run on for 3 mins after shutdown to provide additional cooling - which is great after a heavy Crysis session and far better than just killing all fans the moment that power is off.

I know that it's overkill for my system, but I bought with an eye to the future and I'm very glad I did. :) You won't be disappointed if you get one of these!
