(of course it probably isn't recommended to run it that high)
It powers my rig, and I never had it shut-down because of too much consumption, and I did overclock both my graphics card and my cpu. I might be pushing it, but it doesn't seem to complain at all. Although I did change the fan as it was becoming intrusive at higher loads, now it is quiet and cool.

Does it give you any issues? From the first day of getting mine it has been making a electronic buzzing noise when under any amount of load.
If I'm on the desktop with nothing open, it makes no sounds but if I open a window it starts with the noises..
I've been using headphones so I cant hear it usually, but its not normal... I don't think.. I've read that other people with this PSU have had problems like that.. Should I RMA this sucker? I still have a year left on warranty.

I have a Phenom II X4 and a 460W PSU, and wondering if it's enough for a 6850 / 6870 as well.
