I can see GATT HQ's electricity bill doubling as a result.

Not to mention that of all the other GLs.

    Its a 350w True power though , 350 off the 2 12v rails alone , 1 12 amp 12v rail and a 16 amp 12v .
  my last ''450 watt' had only 16 amps x 12 volts = 192 watts true power and couldn't feed my 6600gt + athlon 3200 , once i got 2 hds, dvd burner etc.( i got system messages from the nvidia driver reporting that my card has been underclocked due to insufficient power , PSU was probably going too, but still powers my brother's duron fine ) 
   .. .. In all the psu can be rated probably ''600 watt'' by normal standards

Things just keep getting better and better (note the synical sarcastic tone) for all those out there saying "why buy now DX10 cards will be out soon" think about this:

Direct X 10 will be Vista only

Windows XP can't handle it


By Fuad Abazovic: Thursday 15 June 2006, 13:36

WE FINALLY got the official word that Direct X 10 won't find its way to Windows XP.
So anyone who plans to buy Direct X 10 hardware and plans to use its full potential will have to buy Vista as well.

The current driver model on the Windows XP is the limitation. One of the key points of Direct X 10 is to be the ability to have more independent objects and the current driver model on Windows XP simply won't be able to deal with it.

Direct X 10 hardware will of course run Direct X 9 games and it is also supposed to do so fast.

The Vole, ATI, Nvidia and the other creators of the Direct X 10 specification wanted to make sure that you will be offered the toppest-notch gaming experience.

We still have to hold our breath and wait and see real hardware running real games on the final Vista Direct X 10 API but give it some time.

What was that Trini? a DX9 card not sounding too bad now? On the other hand you'll be future proofing your machine at least for 4 yrs seeing as vista doh come out til 2007 and the games will follow:

Direct X 10 games to come in Q1 2007

Earlier than we expected


By Fuad Abazovic: Thursday 15 June 2006, 11:59

THE HEAVY delay of Vista might actually have a good side as well.
Game developers have been working with the Software Development Kit for Direct X 10 for some time since it became publicly available. And, since Vista was planed for earlier than this Yule or Q1 2007, games developers have already started beavering away at their first DX10 titles and might finish them before anyone expects.

It won't be the same story as when the developers had to change from DX 8 to Direct X 9. This time around, the Vole has put up some serious money to make the transition faster.

Souces we spike to said the first DirectX 10 titles will be ready at the same time s Vista and, if we are lucky, we might be able to buy both Vista and DX 10 titles in early 2007.

I am just glad that DirectX 10 won't be called WGF 2.0 - Windows Graphics Foundation. It is also not hard to port Xbox 360 games to DirectX 10 due to the similar hardware capabilities. µ
