  1. I wonder when 2000W PSU’s will come out . seems a crazy amount of watts for any system.

  2. looks like a good PSU, is this the highest wattage PSU on the market today?

  3. Interesting they kept the price down a little by opting for silver certification. seems like a wise move to me overall. good psu, expensive but considering the 1600W+ output ideal for something with 50 hard drives and 16 video cards 🙂
