That thing is crazy, I love it !

2 power plugs to the wall. I wonder tho with some of these over the top benching setups with Classifieds, Gulftowns and Quad SLI would it be better to run 2 PSU's or one like this ?

Interesting. I like the idea of the second box for the wires. Have long wanted to build something like that myself.


Except on a much smaller scale of course :) And have it hard mounted into the case for wire management.

Hard to believe that review is over a year old :p

Be very care when modding PSU's, just don't do it :)

Yeah it is rather old I guess, still a good read. Would love to have one of those bad boys.

I have been using a 750 PCP&C forever and it just keeps taking the abuse

Last build I add a 650 watt TT Power Pack tow take 2 GPU's off of of it and I will say it has worked famously ......

Anyone looking for a cheap quick solution to your GPU demands I highly recomend this product ran 2 x 295 and disn't break a sweat

PShaw.. now thats not very overclockaholic of you :p


I modded a 400 something watt hipro split 12v rail PSU into a single rail PSU a while back because the low amps would not power up a a64 4000+ a few years back.

PSU is still running today in a PC I built for my niece :)

Are you supposed to put your pc parts inside that case or is that the psu itself? O.o
