If you need more power, simply buy a bigger PSU. In general, though, you should avoid overpowering your PSU for two reasons: it'll shorten its lifetime and efficiency will take a big hit under taxing loads. We should also note that, thanks to its capable platform, this PSU can easily deliver more than 1kW of power.

This means that you can power a server motherboard and four high-end graphics cards with this PSU, though the GPUs probably shouldn't exceed 200W each. Far better than most other complex addons I use regularly.As expected, there are plenty of cables and available connectors, including eight PCIe and two EPS, all of which are available at the same time.
FLIGHT1 SUPER 80 PRO REVIEW UPDATE
If the Super 80 Pro developers were to update the VC textures, it would be a near-perfect addon.Oddly, the Cub performs extremely well on my machine. In the meantime, I enjoy the Super 80 Pro.

It is really a shame that the Maddog developers will not make a FSX model. Therefore FS9 is the thing that best improves the Maddog's performance.So we don't really disagree on anything. But the fact remains that the Maddog is a FS9 model and performs best in FS9. I cannot stand FS9 anymore, and most people here know that by now, LOL ). The only plane I use in FS9 is the VRS F-18 as it won't work in FSX, period. The Maddog VC on my system - is perfectly fluid. And also - please - don't tell me I should fly 2D cockpit: I fly VC only. FSX SP2 is what I fly: there is nothing that FS9 has that would make me go back - so please - don't tell me I need FS9: for me - FS9 is dead. Between you and me - the only aircraft that really does slow my beast down - is the A2A Cub with Accusim: great aircraft, but load up Heidi at Renton, and I start thinking of "i7, P6T, 6gig and a GTX 285 o/c'd."Everyone is different, have different ideas about what we want in an addon aircraft, but don't degenerate it into a p*****g match over two different devs versions of the same aircraft. I don't know what hardware you two guys are using, maybe 386's or something. But I sure don't need to go backward to FS9, and there's a ton of LH Maddog folks that will agree. It's getting a bit long in the tooth I know, and I've no doubt I can get better performance with newer hardware, but it ain't gonna happen just yet. I've posted lots of screenshots at 3840 x 1024 (Th2G /TrackIR) on Photobucket, and I'm fully happy with the system as it is. Flight plan is from FSBuild, weather is ASA/REX.

It's a C2D at 3.2 gig and I lock FSX at 21 fps: I get moderate to good detail on the ground with a fair cloud cover I see three or four other aircraft around when I start C & D at SEA, plus I turn on some airport traffic 'till after pushback. I think they're gone.Maddog perfomance : listen - I set up the machine per Nick Needham's tuning guide using nHancer and the notes in my other post here. The LH devs don't answer any posts: the site often gets hit with spam their purchase authentication server is often down they ignore almost every request for help that being said - there is an good supply of very knowledgeable users who are there daily, so one isn't totally abandoned, but I don't see any FSX model produced by this group any time in the future. perfectly fluid"What everyone here REALLY needs to do is contact the maddog developers" - Yup - here we can fully agree, KK, however I honestly think that they have absolutely lost interest in the project, as did Vauchez with FZ01 and 02 and the Fly Tampa guys almost did the same thing. Yes I have the CoolSky MD-80, but its' systems don't compare to the LH Maddog. With FS Genesis, UT_USA, & GEX there is no jerkiness, stutters or hesitation, and - apart from water at 1 high, autogen scaled back to 75%, road traffic to 10 and 19% for airline (no other traffic) I'm pretty happy.

Also that's sometimes in full overcast with rain.

I now use ASA with REX graphics - so there's a few more frames: Generally I fly (FSX SP2) FS Passengers out of Seattle, down to Portland twice - three times a week, with frames locked at 21, and she stays there. , plus you can change a number of settings in the Maddog Performance Manager which will make a huge difference to the VC (I only fly VC). I'm now running Win7/32-bit in the Performance mode - which picks up a few frames. It's using Voice Command Control and regular FS2Crew style control for those who don't want to "talk" to their computer.This is great news, Bryan! You will have another customer here!Yeah, you need a pretty good system to manage the Maddog, and I think mine's at the bottom end now.
