Hi guys,
A little help please :)

Now I know how many amps my PSU's are listed at, I all so know that most are listed at there max ratings and I've got my head around efficiency and what not.

But how do I work out how many amps each part of my rig needs when benching.

I'll list what speeds and volts I'm using, as well as what I'd like to hit at some point.
QX9650, 1.94volts and pushing 6Ghz
IP35Pro, All but maxed out,
2Gb PC8500 2.6volts
8800 Ultra 837/2500, will volt modd it at some point and I'm looking for 1.6v & 1000 on the core (or as near as I can get)
SATA HDD X 4
5 X 100+ CFM 120 Fans
DVD Drive

From time to time I'll use a 2nd Ultra (another board used)

Any ideas on what kind of amps I'm using, other than lots ?

About 35A on the 12V at least, with those kinds of crazy clocks. Good to see the Zippy holding up. :)

However, if you are adding another Ultra, I'd step it up to the 850W Zippy. :)
