Hi xii,
That is a great build, good job. It will be interesting to see if the 1200w PS will handle quad 680s. Frank |

Based on my experience with that exact PSU I don't think there will be any issues, but obviously I can't say for sure.

Hi Tidgxor,
With all this new gear and lower heat and power some of our old thinking is changing. I am still not on board with all this new gear yet. Frank |
