Got the 1300W rosewill in the mail today, along with my G440 CPU and MSI Z77A-G45 mainboard. I got hard drives, memory, and vidoe cards laying around, and am in the process of building a third frankenstein. I cant wait!

Edit: I decided to redo some of my rigs while I decide what to do with my HALE90 (it's not in resellable condition, melted modular port and melted molex cable). It's currently powering a 4x5970 rig, consuming 910 watts at the wall and 2700 MHash/sec, or 2.967 Mhash/J.

Although it hurts, I've lowered the prices even more on these excellent clean units. If you want the whole works (2 remaining PSUs and custom power strip), I'll send them all to you for $190.

I'm still interested in the rosewill 1300W, but also still waiting for money to come pouring in from sales of other items Sad Free bump nonetheless

How many rails and how many Amps are each of these PSU's?
They are all single rail. The amperage of the 1300watt lightning is 108A on the main 12v rail. The amperage of the 910watt PCP&C is 74A on the main 12v rail. And the amperage of the 750watt Cooler Master is 60A on the main 12v rail.
(links in the OP go to the Newegg specs pages for each unit)

Wish I could afford the rosewill lightning! I need moar powerz!
Sucks being poor, I guess that's why I'm selling stuff. Grin

Also bump

Well, I'm not exactly -that- poor. I got about $350 worth of video cards I need to sell (2x gigabyte 5850 non-reference, diamond 5830 non-reference) but I have 2x reference 5870 and 1 non-reference, but voltage fully adjustable, 5850 coming in the mail. If I sold my 3 cards, I'd probably jump on the rosewill. Right now I'm drawing 830-860W AC from a 750W HALE90 (80plus gold) and 900-930W AC from a PC P&C 1KW-SR (only 860W available on 12v. not 80plus at all either), and I'm getting sketchy behavior from my rigs; They don't turn off like I would expect, they just become unresponsive and start drawing only ~300 watts, have to hard reset to fix it.

In the meantime, I jerryrigged an OOOLD PSU with 336W available on 12v and powered the weakest cards in each system (5850 @ 0.95v), -seems- to be ok so far..

Plus if I were to get the rosewill, then I could finally RMA my HALE90; I melted one of the molex cords and modular outlets because I didn't know better not to power 2 x Gigabyte 5850s (voltage hardlocked to 1.088v) @ 1000+ MHz across a single molex string. <.<

Anyways, I'm rambling. Bottom line is I'm interested in the rosewill 1300w, and money will eventually come.

Added my custom power cord thingy to the OP. It looks like this:




$75  $65 shipped, and includes the twistlock receptacle that mates to the plug that's already attached to the cord.

Wow, what a slew of information! Grin Can I tip you?
Also went to home depot, and figured maybe I just want to stick with 115v. That way I can continue to measure with my kill-a-watts (I can't find any compatible 230v ones). Just means I have to run 2 circuits instead of one big fat one.
lol sure, my firstbits are under my avatar.

For standard voltage upgrades, you can get specialty tandem breakers that go in a single slot. Click the following link for info: http://www.homedepot.com/h_d1/N-5yc1vZbm0f/h_d2/Navigation?catalogId=10053&Nu=P_PARENT_ID¤tPLP=true&omni=c_Specialty&searchNav=true#/?c=1&684=684
However, you have to be sure that your load center ("breaker panel") supports tandems; you can tell whether they are supported by looking at the copper bus bars in the middle - they will be split into a fork or have special tabs if you are allowed to use those kinds of breakers. Unfortunately I can't find any pictures, but any electrician will know what I mean.

For 20 amp circuits, don't use anything smaller than 12AWG. If you can use tandems, that will mean up to 4 20A breaker slots can be added for your operation. 4 x 20 x 120 = 9600 watts, and 9600 watts x 0.8 = 7680 maximum continuous power draw in watts, as per Code limits.
