PC Power & Cooling 1KW PSU Review

Many of you read last month's review of the Antec True Control II 550W power supply. And last month we saw that the Antec PSU could not keep my system up when running F.E.A.R. on my power-hungry system. I have searched the web and found many end users running SLI complaining that their systems are shutting down when running F.E.A.R. NVIDIA has stated that the game makes the video cards pull as much power as they can with all the detail and effects in the game.

So I ended that review telling you that I would tell you what I did to solve the problem. Well, the solution was getting a PC Power and Cooling Turbo-Cool 1KW power supply (yeah, you read that right; 1KW = 1,000 watts). When the shipping box arrived, I was amazed at the size and weight of the box. Opening the box, I found a power supply that was very long and has a lot of weight to it. My next worry was whether or not it would fit in my Lian-Li V1200 case. Well, it did fit, but it was tight.
