Seriously though, most of power draw comes from the 7900x at 5.0Ghz and the 1080ti HoF in SLI which draw 350W each

How the hell did you manage to get a 7900X to 5 GHz...?

 

Those two in tandem would use about 1000W so I guess you can get a 1500W but it's still not necessary.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

Custom watercooling loops run off molex and SATA so they take no more than like 20W whole.
