Pros: uses less energy to allow more cool stuff inside the land of my computer.

Cons: There were not a whole lot available when I got here. saw this gigabyte and dicided to get. before there gone in a blink.

Other Thoughts: Have not recieved it yet still waiting. These things are becoming more and more reliable which is good. Gigabyte has good support. The product no matter which on chooses will be good seeing how these are references...huh huh mum...I should just say when I getting another whatever there Im getting at this point....sli rules.

Pros: I give um a big number 5eggs. I bought two of these when they first came out and I have not had more carefree fun in all of my computing experiences. So I guess that makes them 3 years old or so.

Cons: Not really a con. More my own doing over the years they have some what merged together. As I was running together using a bridge much like a raid setup for hard drive with exact power supplies but with latest tech inside of these things and the tech in the bridge that merged them together. They are slightly warped and don't produce as strong a signal in the 24pin connections. Again my fault. But they work flawless for any power demand I might need.

Other Thoughts: I really did not think about all that three years ago with the duel setup. but it advantages out weighed everything. Being able to put power to the mainboard without regaurd or in a manner that was more tailored.
They were worth it to this day they work I owe alot of that to the idea that I SAW the sata cables and they were much different and I thought I should never mess with them....like changing them out for sleeved cables and whatnot. Was disappointed about the cables at first because of that. Soon I left the power supplies alone to do there job. And they did flawless over the years ran them through maybe 10 thunderstorms and they have always come out on top. Just a good power supply that will tandem with another one but does not favor going back to single after. And most of all A power supply that will never ever support the idea of changing cables. Even if the aftermarkets they sell in other places are for the 1200watt counterpart the cables need to say that famous 1050HX for me to trust so why mess with a good thing.
