    So I got my 2nd 460 SE and went to install it yesterday when I realized, I don't have enough PCI-e power connectors because the 460 SE takes 2 per card. The other PCI-e connectors were 8 pin and I needed 4x 6 pin. I ended up having to run up to frys to get a new PSU and this is what I got:

    After visiting the site and reading a bit I got a laugh over this line

    "Universal AC input from 90~264V

    No more hassle of flipping that tiny red switch to select the voltage input!"

    Thank god no more sleepless nights worrying about that little red switch
