You can't really add up the amps on the 12v Rails because no PSU is 100% efficient, but its close enough estimate
You don't add the amps up....
I got in here late. But I can tell its gonna be a flame war. Go with the 650TX. I have the 550vx and corsairs psus rock. Watts don't mean ****. Its amps on the 12v rail. A 500w psu should not have 2 12v rails. That forces you to balance the load and if you get it wrong you will over work one rail and can crash your machine.
DBD...you are one stubborn guy. You should really Listen to Bongwizard, Nos, Vern and Puddlejumper. They know their stuff and have been doing this for awhile. I wouldn't talk trash over a Rosewill, but I would take a corsair over it any day.
I know, I was agreeing with you..
I was quoting 2 different people.Learn to use the edit button. Double posts are bad form.
If you say so...And I'm not daft
I know how power supplied work. My point is, I don't have much to say in this debate its just that they know a lot about psus and arguing against them about it is futile.

I'm not arguing against them.
What do you think we disagree on?
