Default Hiper 730W!

I found this PSU online, would it be suitable to replace the GameXtream in my Sig for Tsunami? would this be able to support SLI 7950's if i went that route in 8-12 months? what about the 8xxx series? and SLI?
it seems pretty good and the rails look nice, but does anyone know bout it?
here's the link
I have always really like the look of modular ones... i know ppl don't like em cuz of quality could this end that age old debate?

I know i really like it, and the way it has dedicated PCI-E rails and that they all come out the bottom... thats cool too and you can run them along the back of thecase so they're hidden!

Thos connectors sticking down might get in the way with a CPU cooler... and definately with airflow.

very nice design, and unlike the 580W Hiper, this one actually packs a good punch (56A total max load on the 12V rails).

Like the looks, power, and designt

Dislike the location of the connectors, since I think they might interfere with an aircooled system. Probably ideal for a watercooled rig.

well mabye i could spring for the H2o cooler sooner rather than later, and giv'r on both at once. I could save up for it, and wait a few weeks till i can get both!
put those in the Tsunami they'd look effin awesome!

I would still get the GameXtreme over it anyday. Plus I dont think the Hiper is for sale yet.

Depends also on the price. I personally still prefer the GameXStream, esp. the 700W version. This might well be a $200 unit, in which case the PC Power & Cooling Silencer PSUs are to be preferred (Single rail!! The good stuff!)

^^From the specs it would seem an Armor. Well they do have marketing on these sorta things. This PSU would not be marketed towards Armor users who use the rear HDD cage.
