I just recently ordered and received this power supply:
Topower TOP-1000WG 1000W:

and im confused about why they would make a power supply that can produce a 1000 watts but only allow 19a for peripheral devices.
According to this review from tweaktown:

It states: "12V1 handles the 20+4 pin Main connector and all of the peripheral connectors." So basically from what i can gather, my video card and any other devices i hook up will be drawing off the same 19a rail. So the video card i have now requires 24a or above, so theres no way i could do sli with this power supply let alone power what i have now from what i understand. Why would they split it up like that? I will never use the other connectors that are allocated to the other rails, so essentially is it a waste of capabilities?
Should i return this one and find a power supply that has all the amps on one rail instead of split up so pointlessly?
