| Silverstone SST-ST75ZF 750W Power Supply Review While Intel and AMD and frantically working to keep power usage down of their recent and upcoming CPUs, we see video card taking the top power gobbling spot, two high end ATI X1900 cards in Crossfire will bring most modest power supplies to their knees. You need a sufficiently powerful unit if you plan to overclock your system, this Silverstone 750W PSU is silent and powerful, but is it enough? Let's find out http://www.madshrimps.be/gotoartik.php?articID=468

| i'm kinda curious is this beast doesn't rapidly overheat when under heavy load in summer LAN conditions. the 80mm fan & the cramped contents doesn't really fill me with a lot of confidence under extreme conditions. |

| 33°C room temp != case temp, which will be higher, and not by a small amount if you know there are 2x1900 ATI cards in there
