The Baby Jet is using the Seasonic X-1000 - that PSU is 91.0% efficient with 1 module. See the glowing review here:

What are the chances it would be the one that I bought?
So has knc stated not to use the hx850 or just bitcoinorama? I have heard rumours that he hasn't been getting his required amount of sleep and is under some stress, I would prefer to hear about this in a news announcement.

So is newegg easy going about returns of opened but unused merchandise?
Couldn't knc just put in some form of protection?

I originally bought the Enermax Platimax 1350W, but then I realize it has multiple rails, so I ended up getting the Seasonic AX860i instead.  I was able to connect the Corsair link to my laptop using the following USB header to USB-A adapter.  I can see how many Amps each of the PCIe connectors are consuming and the PSU efficency in real-time.

Adapter Cable, USB 2.0, IDC 5 Male (single row) to USB A Male (Used to connect devices designed to plug into USB motherboard header pins to an external USB 2.0 connector)

    

BTW, the AX860i is made by Seasonic based on the UL # E307858 on the label.

Nice gadget for monitoring but if were to spend the same $200 as the AX860i
i would just invest for the long term for the same amount of cash and get EVGA SuperNOVA 1300G2

with 108amps on the 12v rail. The unit has good reviews and the price is right for the capacity. Hate spending $200 and then its not good enough in a year for the next 10 T/H miner  Cheesy
