Joining the Rosewill power supply family such as Tachyon, FORTRESS, CAPSTONE, HIVE and SilentNight, Rosewill is proud to present, HERCULES, 1600 W of raw power. The most powerful power supply Rosewill has released and it's built ready to power the biggest, toughest, and most Extreme Ultimate PC Gaming Enthusiast machine.

They are getting so big they are almost gonna need a case of their own soon. I know my 1200W is "oversized" and because the way my case is laid out(PSU at the top but on its side)The extra length blocks me using my top exhaust fan. This thing may cause even more interference.

Not only is it huge, but it also almost has the capability of overloading a 15A 120V circuit. Better be a hell of a computer or server if it needs 16 PCIe power connectors.

Maybe America is full of stupid because 120v receptacles are safer to be electrocuted by than 230v.
![]() In all seriousness though, I would absolutely love to run my DC farm on 230v and gain a few percent efficiency.

![]() Gee wonder if it might be the US version of a certain scythe powersupply. It does however (assuming reviews are good) looks like it will be a good purchase for me and my shenanigans. Would be great for my 3 GPU's, watercooling and possibly a few tec's

I have one of those fancy doo-dads. It's Winter though so I just have to open the window. Either way, having plenty of inefficient electronics doesn't help too much.
