Its not quiet m8! In fact a little dissapointed in these all powerful Tagans as i personally rate the 700W as superior.

Nope its a sample from AMD so its OEM. We had issues finding a heatsinks to fit as AM2 socket is not compatible with current Socket 939/940 heatsinks. But the Freezer 64 does fit, just not 100% great.

Gibbo, I have one Tagan 900w, it's not noisy either (maybe 18db at idle, my case fans are louder), in fact I have to put my head near the rear of the pc case to hear it.

Yes the 590 chipset now gives NVIDIA the performance crown back. This combination is really unbeatable and further NVIDIA's lead over ATI. With 7950 GX2's out end of this month NVIDIA will have both the quickest single card solution by far and with the ability to quad SLi to rub even more salt into ATI's wounds.

Well I've heard all our PSU's in action and the Tagan 900W and 1100W units do not impress me!

Give me a Sparkle 700W anyday as they work flawlessy and are quieter.

raja · 20 May 2006 at 21:28

fair enough who am I to argue

btw the new batch of Tagan's in the UK seems rock solid. One word of warning Gibbo, the uk distributer has some units that have the euro connector kettle leads instead of the 3 pin UK plug. I would suggest (unless you already know) that you at least check them before sending out. The start up issues have now been fixed and this supply has been rock solid for me since, absoulte overkill though..

You may be right. But the lead a lot of people were expecting might not be as big as some expected.

Over 40k in 03, jesus i only get 15.5k with my 512mb x1800 XT in that.

He got 40k in 2001, not 2003.

Nice scores though... but I bet Conroe will blow it out of the water, no use buying a new CPU until they are released.

sunlitsix · 20 May 2006 at 22:37

yes he did

40072 in '03

Yes I did get 40k in 2003, take another look!

YooEntSinMeROYT · 20 May 2006 at 23:13

Some people need to learn to skim threads less

Someone else on the CPU forum missed the 40,000 in 03 pic
