I dont understand why many buy 1000Watt PSU's, Im assuming even a 650-750w 80plus PSU can handle SLI and Crossfire will full specs and peripherals is it just marketing or just future proofing? Because it seems that PCs, SSD's, HDD's, and GPUs are becoming power efficient thus negating the fact that we need to INCREASE in PSU wattage..... its going inversely now isnt it? Tech is becoming more efficient and the smaller nm chips use less power in CPU's and GPU's but why do we see newer 1000w PSU's and more?
I can understand for quad and tri SLI/Xfire but other than that most just use 2 GPU's and still get 1000watts of power supply, is it just overkill or just coz they think its needed??
