I hope no one takes these people claiming they use 1200w as if it's some common thing seriously, I doubt they've actually tested their draw from the wall. Even if it were true that one of you does peak 1200w D/C, there are plenty of reasons for the majority to not invest in this, hence why there's 5-ish people pledged.
That Linus comment makes me laugh, don't fool yourself into thinking you know something more than someone else out of jealousy and spite. It's unwise to support your premises with ad hominem fallacies. There are a number of reasons so many people watch Linus, he's not completely inept just because he gets excited about the privileges he now has.

EvanWins1450 from the wall.. Never said its normal, but i am in circles where they are common You ever do research before opening your mouth? 780ti kpe cards are approx 600watts with peak use on water. Then a 6 or 8core chip with hyper threading at 4.5-5ghz? Yeah... Do you even bench?

sturokKey word, common. - occurring, found, or done often; prevalent.
Common - Synonym: Typical - Synonym: 'Normal'
You are not the general public, nor is your circle a sample size that matches up with the entire population of the world. That's nice that its common in your circle, whatever that is...
I do research before I type things, and no I don't bench, most of the world doesn't have the money to invest in builds with the purpose of achieving benchmarks.
Again, "hence why there's 5-ish people pledged."

EvanWinsget off your high horse. All I did was offer better solutions for people that would be interested in this. I know people who game, and people who do neither that use these power supplies... They are just solid power supplies. If you don't need that many watts and never will, don't get it, I dont care, I sure as hell didnt commit to this drop...

sturokThat's all you did? "And if you are listening to what linus says you need your head checked. hes a pompous douche he did a review of 2 decaocta cores recently and his doucheyness just pours out of the screen As far as PSUs that are currently the best. I think Antec High Current Pro 1300W would edge this out. and its 250 on amazon with free shipping..."
Sounds to me like you're the one on a high horse, it's pretty clear that it's unecessary whether you know people who use them or not. If you don't care then why are you posting nonsense about how much you apparently dislike Linus? Sounds like by your conclusion no one should listen to you either.
