Man videocards are becoming INSANE. Soon we will have to have 2 PSU's for a pc. One for the GPU, anf the other for everything else... I mean seriously, they need to work on the whole power consumtion thing... I really dont wanna have to buy another PSU for atleast 2-3 yrs. But at this rate, i dont think it will last.

To keep up to date it seems we will need a new psu every other month if we keep up with everything else...and just think of the cost just to run the rig, especially if your gonna fold, it's going to be awe inspiring with the latest rigs.
