Another PSU...

Postby Hai Perso Coyone? » Thu Aug 31, 2006 12:02 pm

Okay, seeing that another CoolerMaster PSU is better (and cheaper) than the one I was looking for, I am now asking this question...This PSU is SLi Ready...I only have a 6800GT AGP which is not SLi compatible because AFAIK, AGP does not support SLi...it's only PCIe that does...Also, it says "Compliance with the newest Intel

Yes, the PSU will be compatable. Don't talk to HP, as they will talk you out of it.

Basically it having all those features means that the PSU can adapt to certain hardware formats, something we look for when building a system so that we don't have to go buy a new PSU every time we want to upgrade. SLi capable just means that is can put out enough power to do two cards, and it has the SLi power plugs.

Yes the Typr R is still the best that I have found. However $100 from newegg isn't a bad price. Esp for what you get.
