    I mentioned this way up in the thread, but for quiet, I would actually recommend this 570. I currently have this exact card OC'ed to 900/1800, and fans at 50%, and I can't hear it. Me typing is louder. I'm strangely in love with this card...

    Re: Options and opinions

    Duke, can you tell us the specs of your rig -- i.e., which GPUs are you using so that you "need" a 1KW PSU? I recently acquired one myself, fun to have one -- but a lot of money.
    JPM's recommendation is top notch as always, (but expensive as always, too!)
    This Corsair is awesome -- 950W, 78A on single 12V rail, and legendary performance . . . $129 after rebate!

    Per JPM's discussion below, I edited out the Antec PSU I had suggested...sorry, I did not realize it was for a specific case!

    There is a nice Antec one on Newegg here for $135 that may suffice.
    Actually i do like that Corsair, though iono who needs 12 SATA connections, but ok And i doubt it's nearly as quiet. But it looks good and since it's on sale, might as well grab it

    That Antec is junk though. lol4rails. No wonder it's on sale. Did you see the wtfexternal cooling fan on it? haha refuse to let the PSU suck air out of my case :/ And it says it's modular. looks more like modularish. Very few places to plug in your wires. But most importantly
    Exclusively for - Twelve Hundred(1200)/P183/P193/DF-85
    Only works for that specific case.

    Sorry I have been sleeping for a while. My rigs are one HD5870 and HD5450 the MB is an Asus P5P41T LE (LGA 775 - DDR3 1333) Chipset Intel G41 I hope this is what you want, I think. And no adicional cooling for Portugal that can be deadly. Today we had 30 degrees centigrade and the summer hadnt started yet.

    Re: Options and opinions

    Duke, you can save yourself some money and get a nice 750W PSU with a strong 12V rail! That will be plenty.

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...Tpk=tr2%20750w
    Only $70 after rebate.

    Although...maybe a cheaper place to get one in Europe?
