If you look at the specification of my PSU, you'll notice that my +12V1 is only 22A (red circle) and my +12V2 is also 22A. So, how can I run my 8800GT (requiring 26A on the 12v rail) with this PSU??

Well, the answer is that the rating on the 12v rail is the COMBINED amperage. For my Enermax, the combined rating on the 12v rail is actually 32A (blue circle), which would run the 8800GT just fine. Note that this PSU would not be recommended to run the GTX260 or GTX280 as their amperage rating is far higher.

Update lang ko naay 1000watts na PSU. possible ba makaya ang 500watts na AVR ? or you have to buy another AVR na 1000watts.

So far sa akong natestingan... AVR 500watts pwede cya sa 550w & 600w PSU. Mao ni mga componets below naka taod sa mga psu's

4 Sata HDD
1 Optical Drive
4 chassis fans
1 SLI vid card.

KAmo naka sulay namo ani sila? please post this thread thanks.

If your AVR is rated 500watts, then it cant supply anymore than that.. chances are mo kaboom ang fuse or mo kick in ang protection sa AVR.. got a 1k watt AVR for my 750PSU.
