Yes it is simply a matter of having enough amperage and possibly cleaner power as well.

What is "enough" is really hard to calculate, because manufacturers are shady about power requirments. And ripple is even more important to contend with, the cleaner the power the better the OC. I had thought about build ing a case that included a power conditioning system INSIDE the case before so that one would not need a $200 dollar (or more) PSU to power the latest and greatest components. But I let myself get talked out of it. I think I may take another gander at it though.

I cant see it costing more than $50-$100 in parts. And that money would be saved in the first couple of PSUs bought
