Exactly, i would like to power 2 gpu that have 2 pci-e connector with sf600.

Globally i found cerberus-x more suited for front sfx psu, as i will have more choices to cool cpu area, and setup will look better.

However, study on atx psu made me realized that i can recycle my watercooling stuff..:) definitely i will try it with my spare parts..:)

Definitely, after lots of analysis and thoughts, it will be sfx psu.

My choice will be between corsair sf600 and silverstone sx800-lti, depending of the final setup, mainly if i truly want to go for multi gpu or not.

To sum up :
  • Corsair sf600 : one gpu setup
  • Silverstone sx800-lti : multi gpu setup

SX700-LPT is coming back to competition also as it seems that all available psu are based on revision with improved fan controller.

Now question is more SFX-L or SFX, as it seems SFX-L could be a tight fit with longer GPU..:)


after if on X99, it's feasible to use whatever pci e 16x slot (electrically also 16x) for GPU, it could bring back to use ATX bracket...but maybe with an SFX psu....

What do you think of silverstone sx500-lg v2?

I just realize it's cheaper than sf600 and also could handle sli of gtx 1080 setup with core i7 7700k
