Default Re: New Build GA-EP45-DS3 + Q9550

The gigabyte Odin is by all accounts a sweet PSU. I would use it in your Quad, at least while trying to find its limits. I'm sceptical on the value of being able to adjust the rail voltages, but from the look of the modular connectors and the tell tale sign of the hard wired cables not being sleeved all the way into the PSU I think it's a CWT unit, which is an excellent sign if that's the case. I'm about to read the AnandTech review of it. My curiosity was peaked when I read it in your sig earlier. Hopefully AnandTech have pulled the unit apart, and taken some photo's. The boards inside are usually silk printed with the OEM.
