Review: Big Bruin
_______________
A few years ago, people were proud to show off their 500W power supply as some type of status symbol. Eventually those became common place as systems actually began to need that kind of power. Today, if you are into showing off through your power supply, you need something around 1000W. This is more than enough power to run a system with quad core processors, quad video cards, and multiple hard drives. While you might not presently need 1000W of power, having more is better than not having enough, and purchasing a 1000W unit may be more practical than for just bragging rights.
