    Cheers! Cools really well but it is a big sucker as you can see. I need 1.31V for 4GHz LinX stable and with ambients of about 28deg it never went over 74deg.

    This is actually a bit messy. Going to get some longet ATX power cables and re do the cabling. :)

    SilverSilence, I'm surprised your HX-620 can power all that :confused:

    Do you reckon my HX-620 can power a Core i7 860, 2x 5850's, 2x 1TB Samsung F1's, Optical, 4Gb G.Skill Ripjaws Ram?
    Mobo is: Asus P7P55D Deluxe

    It runs fine, the 9800GT is a 'Green Edition' so it doesn't require a connection to the PSU, runs from the power supplied by the PCI-E slot.

    I've got my i7 920 @ 4Ghz, a 1TB Spinpoint + 1.5TB Seagate, Optical, 2x5770s, EX58-UD4P Mobo and 6GB Ram running from it without issues.. It can get a bit warm when under load but other then that it's great :thumbup:

    I'd say you'd be fine, my system probably only pulls 450-500Watts, plus the P55 platform is more power efficient then X58.
