14 DAY TRIAL // I'd say that Chinese PSU OEM Great Wall invented a power supply capable of fueling two different systems, if there actually were more than one 24-pin ATX plug on it.
Alas, there is not, so buyers of the thing will have to get creative if they wish to actually use all that electrical energy.
Fortunately, Great Wall is helping its customers along, mostly through the inclusion of four 8-pin EPS connectors, all of which can be split to two 4-pin connectors.
That way they can power two high-end central processing units at once (in the case of dual-socket motherboards).
In addition to those four, the GW-EPS2000DA 2000W PSU boasts eight 6+2 PCI Express power plugs, for graphics cards.
Customers will know that high-end video boards sometimes make do with a single 6+2-pin port, or two 6-pin ports, but the truly strong ones, especially those with two GPUs, each need two.
Thus, with a total of eight, the newcomer is fully equipped to handle four different PCI Express 3.0/2.0 x16 video cards in quad-SLI (NVIDIA) or CrossFire (AMD).
No longer would buyers need to rely on m MOLEX-to-PCIe adapter cables.
Speaking of MOLEX, there are nine of them. That means nine old-school hard disk drives (HDDs), or optical disk drives (ODDs), active liquid coolers, etc.
On that note, there are twelve SATA power connectors as well, for more contemporary (HDDs), solid-state drives (SSDs), hybrid hard drives / solid-state hybrid drives (HHDs/SSHDs) and ODDs.
Needless to say, the low-power C-states on Core "Haswell" processors are supported as well. Finally, Great Wall gave the GW-EPS2000DA a 140 mm temperature-controlled fan.
Sales will start in China first, soon, for 3,998 RMB (US $654 / €489). Keep in mind that the power output will reach 2000W only on 210 – 265VAC lines (EMEAI, Greater China, etc.). On 90 – 120VAC lines (US, Japan, Canada, etc.), the limit is 1600W.
