Just finished installing this, cable routing needs more work, I will get to that later. This will fuel my 2 way GTX 980 or 3 way GTX 970 SLI which will depend on price/performance ratio.

Congrats bro................. UPS par kese chalao ge Load shedding bht hai lahore mae :p
Haha well ups load depends on max power consumption not on PSU's actual max capacity. If anything this psu reduces the power draw from the main wall socket being 80 plus platinum. In anycase I don't think I would be using more then 700-800W max at any given time which my ups can handle pretty easily :D

agreed!! but there is a thing called inrush current and in that period psu will take more then 1200watts but luckly its under 32ms for this psu(i guess), so opening your PC from OFF state on a UPS could be risky but if it was already ON and in case of power outage you will be just fine.... 1200i is the most stable psu ever been made, OEM vendor flextronics made it possible ;)

I actually got looking into inrush current and find out that my current PSU AX1200i has almost half the inrush current then my previous PSU Corsair TX750W. 35A for AX1200i as comparted to 68A for TX750.
