This is a fairly standard mainstream desktop power supply and it should be able to take anything reasonable that you throw at it. This power supply is also claims to be "SLI & CrossFire Ready" but it is not certified by nVidia or ATI. This is the case for many smaller companies that specialize in power and case products even though their PSUs can hold up to the Antec and PC Power and Cooling's products in most cases.
