    Suggestion for very quiet psu ?

    Have to read the caption on the chart that states Power consumption -"Full System" Then have to factor in power supply efficiency, an unknown in this case The CPU alone is nowhere near 150 watts Edit; I like the 300ET but it wouldn't be my choice for 24/7 activity

    modern systems: 5v/3.3v rails

    Been a couple of years, but I had a fancy psu that showed between 50 and 60 watts combined on the minor rails ( I7-930 @ 3.8 / 3 x 2 DDR3 @ 1.65v / GTX460TOP / 1 HD / 1 OD / MCP355 and 6 fans) The 3.3v used the greater portion of that

    Correcting Abnormal Voltages

    Software voltage readings ? I imagine that the cpu would go pop at 4.16v For the psu, get a DMM and manually test http://www.jonnyguru.com/modules.php?name=NDFAQs&op=FAQ_Question&ndfaq_id=28

    a little noob help for PSU

    Any decent 550w would be plenty for either future card, 750w if you are going to double them up Modular, in most cases means you use only the cables you need In the US ? This would be my choice for a single card http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817151119 Good deal on this 750...

    Rosewill Capstone

    ^This I'm always amazed by the crowd that yaps about dual connector cables being stupid, " a 6 pin only carries 75 watts " :\ My oc'd GTX570 is powered by a dual connector cable

    OCZ 1250W - not enough pci-e connectors

    Safe, yes You have 6 pcie cables Use 2 of the cables with the splitters to connect to all 4 cards, then a cable for each card, that way you are not using a splitter alone to power any of the cards ( don't think it would cause a problem if you did )

    Corsair HX620W and SSD

    Don't understand why you would need to think about voltage requirements, plug in a sata connector and you're done ( there's 5v in there, as well as 3.3 and 12v )

    Does this PSU support 2 pci-e connectors?

    The connectors on the psu are keyed alike, can use the supplied pcie cable in either, can't see a problem adding one

    Seasonic: OEM vs Retail QUALITY?

    Yes Can find a review of the 400w here http://www.anandtech.com/show/2697/30 No little "warranty void if removed sticker" on these, so I figured I'd give a look Seeing all Teapos wasn't to pleasing, but hey it is supposed to be the "entry level" line
