| Not on a Armour +, but on a Modular PSU. Dont know if you have ever heard of Kingwin, but they make very good products. Ive had a couple of their cases, hsfans, and so on and they have always been top notch. The PSU I purchased currently has a 94% 5egg rating on the egg while most "great" psu's have a 83% or so. Anyway, here she is........and yes, shes got 4 rails Kyle. Newegg Link | |

| Kingwins a good brand as far as psu's go. The guy in Day class has one in his armour+MX but I think he said his was 1000 watts and had 6 rails, regardless... good buy. | |

| Yeah, I had to ask what he needed 1000w for... his response was something along the lines of "to jump start my car".  | |

| Honestly, the standard user, 300w is more than enough. For a power user, 700w is more than enough. 1000w? What does he have? Three GTX 295's? | |

| Nope, just a single 260. Say's he got it for possible future upgrades and if he's going with SLI, then I can excuse him for it. | |

| Even so 750w is more than enough for two cards, unless you have several hard drives installed, drive bay panels (lcd fan controllers) and things like that. | |

| Exactly, its not about the watts so much as the amps on the +12v when it comes to vid cards. I feel fairly comfortable with my new psu's 74A on the +12v when my current one running one hd4830 has 29A. | |
