The 2000W PSU is here!

[kablooey]

Can't link to the review site because of competitor ads but the gist of it is "Ultra Products" are bringing out a 2KW PSU in the next few weeks. It can handle 150A(!) on the +12V rail, is a modular (nice looking!) design about the size of an Enermax 1KW and will retail for about $500.

Anyone else think it's getting a bit silly now?

The day I need a 2KW PSU is the day I use my PC for the central heating.

Lol you don't even need 1kw, why introduce a 2kw psu

Also, who in their right mind would spend $500 on a psu!!!

Isn't this getting a bit dangerous ?
I'd reckon that 150A though a dropped screwdriver is going create a few sparks....


'tis obviously marketed at the same spods who bought a "Killer NIC"
