Maybe I missed the boat, or is it I am trying to read two things at once...
WTF is a RAIL...does EVERY cord coming from the power supply called a RAIL?? Does each cord coming down contain a 12v rail??
The 12v RAIL stuff if throwing me off...
HERE IS AN EXAMPLE TO HELP ME WALK THROUGH THAT WILL MAKE ME UNDERSTAND
I have a Antec True Blue 480...with a max 22A on the 12V. I recently purchased a 1950pro, might return it due to my CPU being old "Bottleneck", BUT...people have suggested that I at least have a 30 AMPS on a single 12v rail to push it, or TWO 22 amps on a 12V rails.
WTF.....WHATS A RAIL!!!
I have two different 4-pin connectors going to it....(The Sapphire Card Does This) and they are different separate cords. Does this mean these are two different rails? Or sames? WHAT IN THE WORLD!!
I am reading more and more...but SOMEBODY PLEASE explain this to me...I AM A NOOB in this section.
