| The time has come for Revenge of the Nerds!
| ![]() If you have never heard of BFG technologies, you have probably been living under a rock (which is good, we all need to get outdoors more often). BFG is a privately held US based company best known for their NVIDIA and Ageia based graphics cards. As one might expect, they are a gamer focused company (their slogan is “The Gamer’s Choice!”). Graphic cards are not their only product however, and BFG carries a product line ranging from mousepads to motherboards, and in a place in between, they also carry power supplies. Today we get a chance to check out one of BFG’s PSUs in the form of an 800 watt unit. BFG technologies touts its 800 watt power supply as perfect for a “…gamer running dual PCI Express graphics cards, or a PC enthusiast building a killer system with tons of power-hungry components." They back that with a lifetime 24/7 warranty. Among the features of the BFG 800 watt PSU are quad 12V rails and “Silent Control Technology” for quiet operation. Does this 800 watt monster represent? Let’s find out! Chris Adcock BFG Tech 800 Watt Power Supply DIGG It!!! | ||||||||||||||

| Yeah. I like modular too. But Ultra has the patent on the whole modular interface idea and I'm just waiting for them to pounce out of the wings and start suing people. :( It happens, Topower did it with the whole 20+4 connector, they sued Asus and now everyone pays them $1 per unit to use the idea. :( | ||||||||||||||
