eXtreme Power Supply Calculator

Extreme Outer Vision has cobbled a database of various hardware bits into a power usage calculator that you can use to make a pretty decent estimate of how much power a given system will take.

Something like this is long overdue, in my less than humble opinion, and according to friends and other journalists, the results obtainable from this are much more accurate than one might think, which probably means they've done their homework. With systems taking more and more power as time goes by, a tool like this will tell you how big a power supply you will need on that new 32 core system.

Enjoy,
Jack

    Awesome tool! The results are prety accurate and they have a Pro version available with Amperes per +3.3V, +5V and +12V and up to 4 video cards option. And Pro version is cheap IMHO. Nice.

    Thanks Jack!
