Re: Power supply Advice.
Please, dont hijack threads.
(In case you didnt know)
Hijacking a thread is basically just changing the topic on purpose
Start a new topic asking about which powersupply to get.

Yeah i heard about the 680i having problems, but if i can just update the bios then i guess its ok.
But, just incase i run into problems i wont buy that board until they have it completely fixed. So what board should i buy instead?
The gigabyte one? Is it good, can it overclock decently?

I will be running a e6600, evga 680i mobo, 7900gs, 4 sata hard drives ( 2 raptures 2 caviars ) 1 120mm fan 4 80mm fans 2 gig of 800mhz ,undecided soundcard, after market heat sync OR water cooling, floppy
I know with this build not to much power is needed. But the day Crysis comes out i am putting a 8800 in their, and eventually a a second 8800. Also i have not bought my processor yet and i keep hearing rumors of quad cores dropping dramatically in price. If that happens i will be slappin a quad core in their too. Would 700 w be enough for a qc and duel 8800's plus water cooling, or will i need the 850 w for the extra 100 canadian dollars. Keep in mind i do not want to have to replace a psu anytime in the next 5 years.
