Pros: Looks nice, modular, has many cables for what you need...read on!!
Cons: Can't even power a single 8800GTX even with it's 4 12V rails. There is something wrong with the design, I don't know how an 850W power supply with 4 12V rails can't power a single 8800GTX??! Makes no sense. I looked up the amperage, everything, it should work (theoretically). I called the Customer support and that was a bad experience alone. I returned it right away after getting error messages as you boot up from the video card not getting sufficient power.
Other Thoughts: I am not the only one who has had problems with this power supply, many others are unable to power a single GTX, some have completely dead PS...look for yourself. I looked into the rails, and used different combinations, everything. This power supply should not have passed through quality control. I am very disappointed in this product.
Manufacturer Response:In fact, the TPQ-850 has more than enough power to run an 8800GTX and is SLI certified (posting on slizone.com coming soon). Unfortunately there is what amounts to a recently identified communications problem between some units of the power supply and the firmware on NVIDIA's card that causes an error message to be generated. Antec apologizes for any inconvenience, and is working with NVIDIA to isolate the precise cause and identify the solution as quickly as possible.
Please note that this does not affect the 8800 Ultra or any NVIDIA card besides the 8800GTX, and neither is every Quattro affected. We will shortly have revised units that solve the problem for those who have encountered it, and will gladly swap units for those customers. If you have further questions or need help with any Antec product, please contact Antec Customer Support. Antec is one of the few industry companies to offer toll-free live customer support, which can be reached at 1-800-22-ANTEC.
