Guys

get a voltmeter, see whats coming out of the outlet
if its not 120v AC, dont use it

some older houses have 110v connections

>End up having to pay more when you lose your power supply/potentially your whole system because AMD has no idea what the fuck PPW is

Its almost like you get what you pay for. Whoa.

is this a nvidia fanboy fest thread?

Yeah.

With a 1k the two 290x in 3d clocks would dim the fucking lights in my apartment until the box rebooted.

ffs

Those psu have a 10 year warrenty, I would not worry.

Sure.

>outlet in my house is not giving enough power

In that case, you would either trigger the breakers/fuse, or you'd have an electrical house fire on your hands.

Don't be fucking stupid.

I had a Titan Black, even a 2KW HP 80+titanium server PSU wasn't enough to power it.

In the end it just caught fire.

Always just get Intel.

Could just be luck. Do you use an actual surge protector and not just some power strip? If you don't use a surge protector, then you only have yourself to blame.

You're doing it wrong.
