ThermalTake 1500W PC Power-Supply
Posted on Nov 16, 07 03:26 PM PDT
This is probably the most interesting example that shows how ridiculous electric consumption is getting in high-end gaming computers. This Thermaltake Toughpower power-supply is certified for 1500W, which can come in handy if you happen to build a multi-GPU system (up to Quad GPU + Quad-core CPU according to ThermalTake). I have to admit that it is very well built with detachable cables and a nice 140mm fan (the bigger, the quieter). The price is unknown but I suppose that if you can buy a quad-GPU and quad-core system, you won’t mind “investing” in a nice power-supply…

Hi Mad Mod Mike, long time no see :) When my computer uses as much Watts as my micro-wave oven, I have to admit that it bugs me.

guys not silly for any high end considering a quad gpu set up can consume well over 950W not over clocking

GREAT! I can use it to heat my living room, too!

Totally ridiculous and completely unnecessary for any high end rig.
