They're going after the stupid rich I guess.
The specs are very limited. What is the efficiency if the draw is only 150W?
Dual Xeon, Quad GPU? I always considered the 1200W big enough that I simply didn't have to worry about doing the math.
We now have a good reason for DD to buy this power supply.
295X2 Quadfire. Crysis 3, 3840x2160, cranked settings, avg 82 fps.

Hehe. No time for gaming lately, though CivV looks awesome @ 4k. Prison Architect fails with an error that says (I'm not making this up) "Unreasonable Resolution".
That's a bummer. I just bought the game today for $10. I guess this is why it's in alpha.
I love the game, and the new Alpha 20 (released today) looks to help gameplay a lot. I just run it in a 2160x1600 window

I like how they describe it!
Fixed in Beta 20! Looks awesome.
Who has 100V other than Japan?
Seems legit. It succeeded at 1kW+ despite being under-served. I'd totally call that a pass.
Nobody really. If you are in an older home with aluminum wire or if you neighborhood is under served by your utility your voltage may dip to 100v.
DD don't you have that PSU. Any wild chance you still have the box and/or manual? Is there anything that says wattage will be lower if voltage drops? Just curious.
Yeah, the PSU passed and got the [H]ardOCP green checkmark even though it did fail 100v testing @ 1500 watts. And again you shouldn't have a 1500w PSU plugged into a 15A circuit.
I do have one of them driving a dual-Xeon, Dual-GPU rig. I chose the 1500w over the (more common for me) 1200w because I thought the total demand might hit 1kW. I did hang that machine on its own 20A circuit.
Sorry, I don't keep anything. I'd imagine the manual is on their website if you'd like to see it. IMHO, calling it a 'fail at 100v' is like saying the airbag failed to protect the driver at 155mph. Not surprising, and not marking the product in any way unfit for proper use.
