That was a great review to read.  Wow, what a power supply too!  Looks like you're all setup for that 14900k + 4090 SLI / NVLink, right?  No excuses.

Hahaha. Just $$$

Great review bro! If I ever get a 40 series card that requires a 12VHPWR connector, this might be the PSU I'll get.

Great Review! Any questions I would've had were answered which is how I judge it as good.

Another great review. That's one serious unit. Dual 12VHPWR connectors... Sounds like you're ready to pick up a couple 4000 series cards and fire up Folding@home
