With 600 Watts the PSU falls into the mid-range to lower segment of the high-end category. Although not exactly Kilowatt material, it most certainly is capable enough of running a dedicated mid-range to high-end PC. The product is NOT a certified SLI/Crossfire ready product but can support up one card with its default connectors, one PCIe PEG leads will offer a 6/8-pin (DXX) connector and one 6-pin header can be spotted for graphics cards. That is more than sufficient for a single GPU GPU setup. The OCZ StealthXStream 2 power supplies come backed with a nice three year OCZ PowerSwap Warranty.
