It tends to over shoot a little, but it's still a good reference.

You should just buy Splave's Antec in the F/S section, you'll be covered with enough juice for a long long time.

I ordered this one: Antec 1200 PSU <clicky

Free shipping and should be here tomorrow.

This should be more than enough for some LN2/Dice action. All aux stuff will run off my HX620w PSU and Motherboard/GPU will run off the Antec.
