I thought single rail had no balancing issues Kal-el, I can imagine a problem popping up if this was the hx1000, because a heavily overclocked core i7 and a 4870x2 load would have to be on one of the 40A (since it has two rails) rails, but this is a massive 100A rail.

I toasted a ST1200 Silverstone, thats how the topic came up about possible balancing issues.
