Ok, Mr Crow and I were surprised because you never mentioned your existing PS sucked!

Fair enough! You call it "sucked". The internet calls that "El Cheapo". Was shocked to discover that recently. After 4 years. :-D :-D

I usually buy sub-$100 video cards - of course I don't play PC games at all. So I've never had a problem with my PS not being good enough.

Yeah. It still matters a little when you upgrade a CPU though. Not much I guess. Here's hoping there's a new trend: Lord Nish makes PC games play at full graphics without a graphic card.

Looks like after 4 years my 8800GT has decided to stop working when I thought about at least a good 3 more years. I've looked at GTX 580 to be...a "worthy" replacement for another 6 years or more. Would like suggestions as to what kind of PSU you guys recommend. I'm looking at probably a Corsair 600W or a 800W.

Hi i wouldnt get a 580 tbh rather get a factory oc'ed 670 youll basically get the same performance as a stock 680, and its new tech. also the 670 should use less power and run cooler than a 580.

When in doubt, go overboard! That's what I did...wasn't sure what I needed, so I bought a 1000W :laugh: (Although, I'm probably close to justifying it by now with everything I've added since.)

Even a 700W PSU wasn't enough? :( You're right about the voltage rails. I'm looking for a good PSU with suggestions on that. Which PSU you have?
