hipro is actually building the psu for his own needs and benching... teh saying goes, do watever it takes to get to the top" hes a legend for a reason, teh 5kw psu is made coz he doesnt believe in psu that are retails.. he uses three ziipys psu iirc and stil is disapointed, and tehse are self modded zippys that carry 13v on the 12v rail.... imagine

hipro5 u are legend... :respect

Euww..
Four +12V Rails with so little amps on each rails.
I wouldn't buy this PSU if i were you.

bro 20 amps on each rails is plenty for a quad rail... its actually a good number.... the sinlge rails 1kilowats psus are around 70amps to 80 amps, and teh hinger ends wans at 90 amps... u soplit it by four u still get around 17.5 amps to 20amps to 22 amps respectiely... so it is weel within the range... although i do like single rails psus... i find it not much of a performance gain as i will never use teh full potential of this psu anyway...
p/s teh price is u guys want to knw for the fsp pls pm me...

A 1KW psu nowadays is more than enough infact is still excessive for two 8800 Ultra in SLi or two 2900XT in crossfire.
Even if you run those cards in SLi @ Crossfire, they will only use not more than 700Watts of power.
Seriously, that 5KW psu is not going to be used at all.
Why?
Because technology nowadays are more into lower voltage consumption, not higher voltage consumption.

yes this is true but u need to consider that these guys are hardore benchers , to tehm ln2 is not even extreme... and when they bench their rigs , lets say 2 x 8800 ultras, with a quad , will easily consume 800+ wats of power... so a 1kilowats psu is not enough for these guys... read hipros work log n u will understand y he is making htis psu, he answers this question many times....
