Here it is, in all it's glory. It's HUGE glory, that is. At 10.25" long, it'll fit in your case. (if you have a big case. or a dremel.)

"With 1800w available on the +12v rail, that means it can handle an amazing 150A load!"

"...the Ultra X3 2000W PSU will be available to consumers sometime in Q1 2007."


Crazy.

Oh my god! *faints*

I want one!!

[Mitternacht]

I should get a power supply like that, use only the cables you need. That'd be excellent cable management.

[Theorem]

Yea, I like that cable managment settup too.
I Wonder how much that thing weighs...

[Slug Toy]

more importantly, how much does it cost?

[dgrmkrp]

they say it's gonna be "cheap".. considering ...

UPDATE: Ultra doesn't expect this power supply to cost more than US $499!

The heat off that thing must be amazing.


Can you say "External PSU"

[DaJe]

I don't even need a 1000w one yet!

[public_eyesore]

it's sad since all the proc companies are trying to lower power, but the video card industry is like "**** work, as long as it perfoms better, we think it is better". There should be no reason for a 2000w psu. How much is that gonna run up the electric bill?

i was thinking about the uses for a 2000 watt supply... the only thing i can come up with is you can run multiple systems off one supply. my system uses about 400 watts... so i could power 5 of them with that 2000 watt. i suppose it would be useful in render farms and folding clusters... you could probably get away with powering close to 10 bare bones systems for those purposes.
