Hey gamersglory,

thanks for your input.
I did see that on ebay and the guy selling it states that it runs great for 2 non oc'd ants. I just wanna make sure that I find something that is capable of running both of em oc'd...
Also, the noise is supposedly a bit high on them...

If you're on a budget, I'd just go with 2 500 or 600 W PSU's.  Much cheaper.

If budget doesn't matter, and you like to just connect 2 Ants to a single PSU, something like this would do:

Found this:

Would this be capable of powering 1 oc'd ant safely??
The price on these is just unbeatable. 2 of them are still less than the 1000w one and have some change left to buy smokes Smiley. So yes, budget does matter a lil bit.
Also would this be super easy to just plug n play? As in connect the pci-e cables, jump the psu and be done with it?
Or does it still require soldering/cutting wires etc...?

Is there a guide on how to jumper this specific unit? Corsair cx600? or do you just connect the green with any black?

again, thanks for your patience and for your quick replies


Pay a little more for modular so you don't have a wiry mess:

Modular is as easy as it gets.  Paper clip trick the PSU, plug in the ethernet, power on PSU, and configure your Ant.
