That's incorrect, the sustained load limit for a 120v 15a circuit is only 1,300 watts, you cannot pull 15a continuously. 80% of the circuit limit is your maximum continuous. Don't forget about power conversion losses as well, that further increases the load at the outlet. This 2,200 watt can't...

What you neglected to reason out is that 50-60mm radiators need push/pull to work best. Thick radiators also require higher airflow to get the benefit as they are 2 pass and without elevated airflow the 2nd pass nets you little.

The unusual design is there to accommodate the flow-through cooler, and it would be a shame to pay the Nvidia premium for this card if you could simply opt for a more regular-design card from one of Nvidia's AIBs and ditch a cheaper cooler. I'm sorry but is @niels even familiar with this...

$69 on Amazon gets you a higher end battery with DOUBLE this capacity. So I agree with posters saying this is exorbitantly priced.

Great Review guys. Just one thing, you need to remove the reference to being a Predator monitor, this monitor has absolutely no tie to the Predator line-up of products, it is a XR Series monitor. Only the G-Sync version falls under the Predator series.

@CaedenV Did you pull that power consumption out of thin air? Dead Wrong. Let's take even 1 easy example. WD 1TB Caviar Black 7.8w Idle/ 8.4w seek. Samsung 840 Pro (since you said high end) 4.37w under random write. Thats also 1/2 the consumption genius.

I just got done with alot of comparisons with 7zip vs Winzip 15.5 vs. Winzip 17...in every compression test I can do Winzip is considerably faster than 7zip. Folder containing 713 files totaling 717MB files ranging from a few KB to 150MB. Best of 3 runs (i7-3840QM CPU 4c/8t 2.8ghz 3.8ghz...
