I would think that anyone buying 4 titans would also be able to buy a very expensive cpu too... But it's not really necessary to have a 3930K. Any CPU will be the bottleneck in this situation but the performance you could still get out of the titans will still be out of this world even with a Core i5 4670K. Although I'm not sure how much the difference would be... I can't afford titans to test and most people testing 4x titans have very fast processors.

I wouldn't go with anything less than a 1200 watt powersupply with that kind of setup. With just a single titan the system power draw is over 500 watts in some games. You have to think the graphics card probably draws about 200 watts more or less. Take into account that the powersupply will be at least 82% power efficient at full load and the you're looking at about 950 watts. Even more from the wall. That's cutting it pretty close for a 1000 watt power supply. And if you don't buy a good brand just forget about it.

Yes. No need to worry as far as the specifications go on that one. The brand isn't exactly known for quality products though. You probably could have gotten a bit better quality power supply for just a little more money. But yeah, it's decent enough. And by the way it has an 80 amp +12 volt rail. What you saw was the overload protection of up to 68 amps. Overloading is when you use more power than your power supply's max advertised power limit. So it has that protection so it will either shut off or keep going for a while rather than just burn out.
