In order of "trustworthyness"...
Seasonic (all), Corsair (all), XFX (Core/ProSeries), Antec (Earthpower/Truepower/Neo Eco), OCZ (mostly all models), CoolerMaster (Silent Pro Gold series).

That's all off the top of my head, there's a few others but they're closer to specific models than entire brands. There was an extensive list somewhere on the web of all "good" PSU's but I can't find it >_<

For crossfire 6950's a decent 650-750w will be more than enough (OC headroom, extensions, etc included).

Just to provide something useful to the thread, came across a site listing the OEM for most every power supply.
http://www.realhardtechx.com/index_archivos/Page541.htm


Also, here's a pretty substantial list of Power Supplies

Tier Breakdown:


Tier 1 provides the best quality power, great for overclocking, super high-end systems, and bragging rights.  The best of the best. Very good longevity.  
Tier 2 offers very good quality power output, and great reliability.  Highly recommended for use in new systems. 
Tier 2b contains units that almost made Tier 2, but may not have quite as good quality output(still very good), or may not last as long.  Recommended for systems not expected to run 24/7 for several years. 
Tier 3 power supplies fully meet all ATX requirements for power output quality, but don't have as good of power output quality as above tiers. No reason to replace one if you have one, and they're still good choices for most systems.  
Tier 4 units may have some problems, such as being unable to deliver rated power at higher temperatures, or being slightly out of ATX spec on power output quality.  Not recommended to buy except in situations where you will not be stressing it, or expecting it to last for more than a few years.  If you have one, you can probably keep using it unless you're experiencing problems. 
Tier 5 power supplies are NOT RECOMMENDED.  If you have one, you should strongly consider replacing it ASAP.  These can damage your computer, and often cannot put out the power that they're rated for. If a brand name is listed here, then all models from that brand name are considered to be Tier 5, except for those specific models listed above.

Is it just me or does that keyboard look tiny? Perhaps I've grown far too used to giant keyboards? Hmmm... Nice, Insane title! ^_^ Should've gotten it back in good ol' Wrath. But nice job anyways, looks like you just got it pretty recently, grats!!

And yeah, for PCs I've built that didn't have modular PSUs, I just zip-tied the remaining cables up and usually stick them in the bottom HDD cages.

Nope you are indeed right, it is rather small (60%)
I did inded get the insane recently(thanks :3) got so bored I thought i'd go for it... and still, bored with the game ... having a case of GW2WS(GW2 Withdrawl Syndrome).

I guess i'll just leave the cables like that for now then

Here's a recent picture..(about 10 mins ago) WITH a close up of the keyboard just for you Deltrus

D'oh, imgur is down, time to use an inferior host

[DeltrusDisc]

omg now the keys are mismatched colors! O_O

[Adt]

Yeah.. i has 2 colours and i couldn't decide... think i may go back to the blue though, this lavender is awful to look at *only got them because i ordered "hot pink" but apparently it got lost in translation or something... ah well.
But yeah, everything is done via modifiers you cant see,
e.g;
delete = Fn+/
PgUp = Fn+[
PgDwn = Fn+'
PrntScrn = Fn+H

I recently built a new gaming PC to play BF3 and WoW I retired my old gaming PC to am workable file and media server/HTPC (intel i7 920, evga gtx260, evga x58 motherboard, 12gigs of ram, Corsair HX1000w PSU). my new system is in my Sig

[Rennadrel]

Mine is in my signature, so I shall just drop this post here to save myself reposting the pictures

Note to self: in the future, buy a modular PSU
Anyone have any ideas what to do with said unused cables? other than leaving them tied up down there.

Buy a SeaSonic if you do, they are absolutely fantastic. I love mine to bits, it's silent as a lamb even under load, actually my whole case is pretty quiet with the fans all at maximum speed. I love the fully modular capability of the SeaSonic PSU's, well worth 140 bucks for a 650 watt in my opinion. One of the biggest things about the SeaSonic PSU's is that below 20% power draw, the fans stop spinning, which is great and you never hear it while gaming anyway.

Iphone picture quality FTW!

I'm guessing you like Razer?

Anyway, I request a close-up on your rig as well as a full system specification list!

I tired to do a close up but the quality was so bad you couldn't see anything but the specs are:
i5 2500k @ 4.5GHz
COOLER MASTER Hyper 212 CPU fan
crossfire 6870s
16GB 1600MHz RAM
2TB HDD
120GB SSD
Asrock z68 extreme3 gen3 MOBO
SeaSonic 750W PSU
Elite 430 cooler master case

[DeltrusDisc]

Got specifications regarding your peripherals? :P

[Charecters]

Keyboard is a Razer anansi mouse is a Razer naga and the headset is a Razer carcharias I think the monitor is an HP 1080p 23" LED

Here is the fruit of my labour over the weekend.

Looks awesome, that will be a sick gaming setup! Nice choices on parts! Also your size is perfect!

Yeah already enjoying the massive increase in fps - no more 10 fps on heroic spine!

[Xuvial]

Hm. Are those the Slipstream Slims or the regular Slipstreams? Seriously considering doing one final fan revamp (again sigh) and this time airflow+quietness > looks. Gentle Typhoons vs Slipstreams (I has fan controller).

They're the regular ones, the noise is a bit noticeable when they're running at the full 1900 rpm, but when they're not going flat out they are pretty quiet.

[Prag]

With dual 7970's? I'd hope not! Great rig, looks like a really great setup. Super jealous!

Look into the Xigmatek Silent Series fans, they are fantastic. I tossed 3 of those in my new case and am contemplating getting 4 more 140mm fans for my case for exhaust and intake as well as a couple of 120mm for my H80 (though I might go with Bitfenix fans as they have better air flow).

How it used to be this summer

I'm looking for a new desk and I must say that desk is win. Is it available online, or is it custom? Links appreciated!
