I could just imagine plugging this thing into an outlet made for an electric oven.]]>Jan 5th 2007 2:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/05/ultra-products-unveils-2000-watt-x3-atx-power-supply/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/05/ultra-products-unveils-2000-watt-x3-atx-power-supply/Jan 5th 2007 5:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/05/ultra-products-unveils-2000-watt-x3-atx-power-supply/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/05/ultra-products-unveils-2000-watt-x3-atx-power-supply/
Note that these figures apply to the Input side of the power supply. Since power supplies are generally not 100% efficient, a supply that delivers 2000W at the Output must necessarily draw more than that for the input.

It remains to be seen whether this Ultra supply can provide 2000W continuously, or if that is just a peak rating for a short period of time (through the magic of capacitors).]]>Jan 5th 2007 5:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/05/ultra-products-unveils-2000-watt-x3-atx-power-supply/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/05/ultra-products-unveils-2000-watt-x3-atx-power-supply/
I suspect exceeding a 1200 watt sustained load on one of these would be asking for trouble, but darn few buyers of this item would actually put such a load on the supply. Most buyers shelling out for this will primarily be looking for bragging rights.

When Antec, Fortron, or another company that puts a more "real world operation" rating on their power supplies puts out a 2KW power supply, then I'll believe it. You can also bet it will require something other than a standard 15A outlet for power.]]>Jan 6th 2007 1:02AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/05/ultra-products-unveils-2000-watt-x3-atx-power-supply/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/05/ultra-products-unveils-2000-watt-x3-atx-power-supply/Jan 10th 2007 5:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/05/ultra-products-unveils-2000-watt-x3-atx-power-supply/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/05/ultra-products-unveils-2000-watt-x3-atx-power-supply/Jan 15th 2007 8:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/05/ultra-products-unveils-2000-watt-x3-atx-power-supply/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/05/ultra-products-unveils-2000-watt-x3-atx-power-supply/Feb 16th 2007 4:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/05/ultra-products-unveils-2000-watt-x3-atx-power-supply/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/05/ultra-products-unveils-2000-watt-x3-atx-power-supply/http://www.batteryfast.com , which would shipping to you fast and the quality is satisfy satisfied.:) from http://www.batteryfast.com/tool-battery/dewalt/]]>Nov 20th 2007 9:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/05/ultra-products-unveils-2000-watt-x3-atx-power-supply/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/05/ultra-products-unveils-2000-watt-x3-atx-power-supply/Dec 18th 2007 9:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/05/ultra-products-unveils-2000-watt-x3-atx-power-supply/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/05/ultra-products-unveils-2000-watt-x3-atx-power-supply/3x 8800ultra, 8gb ram, 2x WD Raptor 150gb, Seagate 750gb barracuda, 780i mobo, dvd drive, and qx7770 cpu. thats without the airforce worth of fans and liquid cooling system going in this beast, added in to the total.
