High Wattage PSUs Useless? | 2000w 80+ Platinum PSU

Could plug in 3x 6+2pin connectors to power a 24pin ATX, theoretically (please dont try this at home)

No, just no. If you've ever done liquid cooling leak testing, you'd know you need to trip two specific wires on the 24-pin connector which aren't on any other connector. It's a special scenario. Frankly this is a case where semi-modularity has an advantage, as you could have 2 24-pins coming out via the old squid method and leave even more room for extra connectors on the PSU.

If you really need that much power, just get two PSU's. You'll probably have a case that can accommodate it.

Maybe you want to put four titans in an 800D... You never know....

so much want. this beast can power 4 8gb 290X's and an 5960X, the ultimate 4k gaming machine. personally i'm more interested in the amount of current that 12v can put out. what a monster!

 

@KingCry you need this for 770's :P

I think 2 of these would do me just fine, might blow one up if I got my hands on Titans and the Gigabyte G-Powered Addon Board under LN2

Meanwhile here I am with a 4960X at home, a 2700k here at school, 2 Titan Blacks at home, a 570 at school as well as a low-end OpenCL 2.0 FirePro... What a mess.

apparently 8 pack says you don't need 2 of them. this set up was only pulling 1930w at the wall :P

Yeah but he is overclocking with Maxwell not Kepler or Fermi which I like a little more.

This had better be the only thing on your household circuit. You're very likely to blow a fuse even without anything else hooked up.

Not every country uses lousy 120V for their homes :P

 

(13A fuse for the normal outlets ... 2000/0.9 = 2222 ... 2222[W]/240[V] = 9.26 [A])

That's probably why it's not for the US lol.
