nice, would be ideal really for those running 2 580s (or plan to) as the 850w is a bit risky and the 1050w is a bit expensive for some

Only thing that seems to be a problem with the tx950 is the noise at higher loads.

"The Corsair TX950W follows in the tradition of all previous Corsair units as it employs a single large overhead fan, excellent efficiency, and a good fan controller all in an effort to mitigate the unit’s sound profile. However, this unit does vary from others we have seen as it employs a fan from the obscure brand Hong Hua. For the most part during load testing though, the unit was surprisingly quiet given that the previous OK-quality Yate Loon's have been replaced with the Hong Hua unknown. However, once we got into the Torture Test the Hong Hua fan came to life. Like the Corsair HX850W before it, the fan became clearly audible as it spooled up and grew louder when the unit moved into the full power test. However, in all loads below 80% this sound was absent and the unit was unremarkable in our test background."
