Check out the CoolerMaster iGreen 600. 85% efficient, ATX 12V V 2.2,
RoHS compliant. MTBF > 400,000 Hrs, dual ball bearing 120 mm fan. 600
W continuous, 700 W max.
Continuous ratings:
3.3V 20 A
5V 20 A
total 166 W
12V 1 16 A
12V 2 14 A
12V 3 8 A
total 456 W
-12V 0.5 A
5Vsb 3 A
All the drives are powered by 12V 1. Two PCI-E 6-pin connectors, one
from 12V 1, the other from 12V 3. 12V 2 goes to the 4 and 8 pin 12V MB
connectors. So if you only have one GPU that needs a PCI-e connector,
use the one that is powered by 12V 3 and save 12V 1 for the drives.
If one PSU doesn't do it for your drives, add a second PSU. My
CM-Stacker case has two bays and comes with the harness that connects
the two.
