anyone got a system that actually need a 2000W psu?

like http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817101033

if so please post specs, because im very cureous what a pc that would actually need all that is like

post pics too if u got, sexy ones

A quad-socket setup with a GTX 285, several SAS RAID array's, quad RAM riser cards, six individual water-cooling loops (one per CPU, one for the chipset, and one for the graphics card probably uses about half that.RayvinAzn

Or maybe some crazy TEC cooling unit.

I honestly can't think of any system that would need close to a 2000W PSU. You'd need to hook up a ludicrous number of hard-drives, and completely fill your motherboard. And even then you probably wouldn't need 2000W.G013M

i have 16- pcie 2.0 slots, and 20 hdd, six media card readers, 6 gtx 295s, 2 dvd drives, and a bluray drive, and oh it also jumpstarts my helicopter when it wont crank.

lol sorry i couldnt help myself,

lol pretty much

Maybe they wired it to be a PSU for 4 computers :roll:

Or it might be used as a heater during those colder months

well my pc has a built in hairdryer, so yeah 2000W would be handyGigagamer2

I was going to say mine has built in teasmaid.

Like someone said people use bigger psu's than they need most of the time.Plus in the future less power will be needed to run hardware.Astaroth2k

dunno bout that, hardware might become more efficient, but itll also get more powerful which will require more power, dunno for sure because i dont got a time machine, but im guessing the powerfullness of hardware might overrule the efficiencies that are created
