I just recently ordered my A8N on Thursday night and it should most likely be here by this Monday or Tuesday. Now I ordered this board before reading about the issues people seem to be having with Dual 12v Rail PSU's. Now I am worried because I have a Coolermaster Real Power 450W PSU and it has dual 12v rails. I am worried that this PSU won't run the new mobo stable, and that I'm gonna have to go and shell out more money on a new PSU after I just finish buying this one about a month ago. And I also spent a pretty long time sleeving the thing also.

Can you guys with A8N SLI's please post your setups, especially which PSU you are using. I want to see if anyone with dual 12v rail PSU's isn't having any stability problems.

Someone is running fine with a 600W Noisetaker (last I heard) with dual 6800GTs & VoodooPC uses that same PSU for their custom configured SLI rigs.

I have two systems running sli with PC Power and Coolings 510 Turbo Deluxe SLI model and they are rock solid. May not be the supply, do a search on author squonk in the main thread for the board and read some of the things i discovered while building two systems.

I have a dual rail Enermax 475W and no power problems at all. I suspect that people are blaming other problems on the PSU because they can't solve them and it's easier to jump on a bandwagon.
