Could someone please recommend a very high quality 1,000 platinum power supply that has a single 12v rail?

I've been looking for a particular PSU for my new build (seasonic P1000) but can't find it anywhere and I think it may have been discontinued.

Not sure which SeaSonic you'd be referring to as the "P1000"? I assume the SS-1000XP from 2011(ish)?
this one? http://www.jonnyguru.com/modules.php?name=NDReviews&op=Story&reid=264

The 1050W is the SS-1050XP3

It seems to be the replacement for, opposed to "better than" the SS-1000XP

It's a toss-up between the SeaSonic and the LEadex-made SuperNOVA P2. You cant really go wrong with either.

As I asked though.....why the 1000W & Platinum?

So, about 550W absolute max load? A quality 750W would be sufficient and give you OCing headroom. Doesn't have to be platinum either.

Are all quality options with either Bronze or Gold ratings, and more than capable for your setup...... without breaking the bank (although with a new 7700K and SLI 1080s, whether that's an issue is debatable :lol:)
