For the Psu-s

I have a question. If you have a machine what eats about 700w and you have a 850w Psu, what will you do if somhow we can overclock them and need some margin?

I have a 1500w psu and a lot of big fans to answer this.

But it's only a theory......

A 850W quality PSU will most probably be enough even for some overclocking if possible, granted a Jupiter uses less than 600W DC power.

And you'll have a psu at 100% load.

Personally I don't like it. (It's my fault)

For a KNC Jupiter it could well end up drawing 750 Watts (perhaps a bit more) -- I would recommend a 1000 Watt supply as the minimum.

It would be better with a 1200 Watt capable supply. (Safety margin)

My first idea was 1200W too...

But there was only a little pirce difference between 1200 or 1500W so margin upon margin. Just for sure. (My simple logic: a bit too much is better than a bit less)
