Those buying a psu you may be interested to know
X38\Q6600 G0 @ 1.4v+7970 ghz +10 HDDs + 2 Fans draws 480W under load (Furmurk GPU and cpu stress test)..tested with corsair HX 520
X99\5820k @stock + 7970 ghz + 10 HDDs + 7 Fans draws 400W under the same load...tested with EVGA 1KW P2
Will test 5820 @ 1.3v/4.5ghz and report back..but i suspect it will not be more..so it seems the new platform is more efficient/doesnt require larger psu..
