So the basic question is : what PSU to get for the following config....i got lost between hooking up 2 480W NC watercooled PSUs...or getting one big PSU, and putting less disco lights.

here it goes:

Basic:
A8nN-Sli
Fx 55 (cooled by the vapochill)
2x 6800Ultra PCIe
2x Seagate Ultra320 (via adaptec ultra320)
1x Audigy 2zs
2gigs twinmos

Cooling:
Vapochill!
7x120Fans
1xBlackIceExtreme III
1xInnovatek Ehiem 12v pump
Cooling pattern:
pump>Chipset>SLi>""PSUs"">HDD cooling box>Water meter (approx: 30cm high)>Radiator>pump

Extras:
1xDVD/CD etc...
1xDVD Rom
1xCrystalfontz #634
1xInnovatek Fan-o-matic

Lights: Depending, considering the PSU

If you have any othther suggestions pls advise !!

Thanks

I got this one for my ASUS SLI RIG and it works great. However your SLI rig is a little bigger than mine, but it should have no problem with it.

I love the sleeved cables, the queit 120mm fan, and that the PSU is blue (adding to the pimp factor just a little)

You think its going to deliver enough power to all the components?, the Vapochill is a serious amp/watts eater it eats approx 180W by it self... but maybe found like the Zippy 700W ..

to be continued...

There are less expensive PSU but PC Power & Cooling is my personal choice. Fast shipping and excellent quality.

LOL I had a vaopochill ls with a fat as# system on a Antec Modular 550w and it ran it out the as#. So I think if you went with the ocz POWERSTREAM 600w you are going to be fine. Even with a 550w you will be fine.
