Specifications and Packaging
The Antec High Current Pro Platinum 850W power supply is rated for a combined, continuous output power of up to 850 watts at 50°C operating temperature (internal case air temperature). The PSU includes universal AC line input (automatically adjusts to the AC line voltage) and active PFC, which makes the unit more environmentally friendly to the local power grid. The HCP-850 Platinum PSU incorporates four, high current +12V outputs (up to 40A each) that can deliver the full output capacity of 850 watts.

Packaging and Parts
The Antec High Current Pro Platinum 850W power supply arrived securely packed inside a large retail box that highlights the PSU's main features and specifications. In addition to the power supply the package includes a heavy duty power cord, mounting screws, eleven modular cables, OC Link cable, Velcro cable-wraps, and a brief Product Overview sheet. More detailed technical information can be found on the Antec website.
Modular causes more
Modular causes more resistance…I look for a PSU with as few interconnects as possible.
Which does not make
Which does not make appreciable difference and top of the line modular PSUs can achieve as little as 0,5% deviation on main rails between idle and full load.
Also non-modular is too impractical above certain power level, with too many cables to hide.
Why doesn`t the US switch
Why doesn`t the US switch over to 240V ?
It is more efficient.
I’m guesing costs of adapting
I’m guesing costs of adapting infrastructure will be pretty enormous.
It is (was?) the biggest
It is (was?) the biggest market for consumer electronics and appliances designed for 120 V since 1945. About half the current homes were built before 1970 and were not designed for the higher voltages (look up knob and tube wiring on wikipedia). Those all have to be upgraded along with the electrical grid and connections to the homes. Then you need some sort of 99.9% foolproof way for the current wave of people starting to suffer from Old-heimers to plug in all of the devices they have owned for 60 years.
I have 240 in the garage…I
I have 240 in the garage…I guess I meant to say on newer houses they could have a 240 option in the bedroom/living room…we could run more high-powered video cards easier !
240v standard in man-caves.
Is 240v a lot more dangerous ? I know the amps you can pull is at least double.
Why did Europe get to go 240 and not us ? Excepting most US garages. Welding/washers/dryers.
I got my answer…answer.com
I got my answer…answer.com LOL
The US system theoretically could be made as good or better than the European system with no infrastructure change, except appliances and consumer structures themselves (collectively costing home owners billions). US houses get 240 volts at the panel. If wall outlets all were fed with 240V you’d have the lower current and higher power advantage of the European system and it would be safer too, since each “hot” would still be only 120V from ground (not 240V) which keeps the reduced shock hazard advantage. Of course it is still possible to touch the two hots.
(So in a way our system allows for more flexibility)
Weve got 240v over here its
Weve got 240v over here its fucking sweet if america was to switch to 240v from 120v i think the costs would be extreme plus all your electrical appliances would need to be replaced or you could use a coverter best of just getting solar or a beefy generator that supplies 240v 15amps
