    ABS 1100W enough?

    Interesting stuff guys thanks! I've owned the ABS for about a year now and what's funny is these two PSU's were the two I came to. I guess It's fine cuz... I'm running my setup fine with 6990+6970 OC running a WEI of 7.9. I bet the WEI isn't that good of a benchmark though. lol

    ABS 1100W enough?

    @Profumo: I'm not trying to challenge you I'm really curious... why is the $179.00 1000w PSU with lower review ratings better than the $179.00 1100W with better reviews?

    ABS 1100W enough?

    Thanks for the response! So does Newegg just way overshoot on their psu calculator to be safe cuz this is what they recommend for me... "Our recommended PSU Wattage: 1387W"

    Eyefinity and 6990+6970

    So I just upgraded my mobo and cpu to MSI x79A-GD65 (8D) and i7 3930k... When I booted my 3 monitor setup with my old AMD Phenom II 965 and 6990 there were no problems. When I booted and restarted with my new mobo and cpu everything loads really slow and I get screen tearing flickering...
