I'm in the process of building a high end gaming system (Quad Core CPU overclocked to 4.0 gigahertz, 790i ultra mobo, Dual SLI 8800 Ultras, etc.) and I'm looking at power supplies.
Why question is: will a 860W PSU always meet my needs? Why might a 1000W PSU ever be necessary, or is that just excessive? Would it be a good idea to get a 1000W PSU just to cover my bases?
For example I'm looking at the Antec TruePower Quattro 850 or 1000 and also the PCP&C Turbo-Cool 860.
Thanks in advance.
