I don't know that this one is by Seasonic for a fact, but that is the information I was given.
If the reviews hold up on this baby, then linderman and I need to take a look at including it in our power supply information thread as a recommended supply when we revise to keep up-to-date with the sticky..
Keep us posted if you hear any more about it whether it might be good or bad reviews, because..........Inquiring minds want to know.
Thanks for your good information...have a great day.

It is rated top class, I mean top 3, as far as I've seen! The TruePower Trio series is very well developed and a recommendation for Oc'rs.
Its by Seasonic, yes. Apart from the fact that the three 12V rails only support 624W, its held up well in tests with upto 85% efficiency. Its supposed to have slightly increased in voltage rather than drop in loadup passing. I'll see if I can find something later on tonight.
IIRC its non-modular and Antec backs the TruePower Trio 650 with a 5 year warranty. I have come across a review somewhere on a forum with an Fx series AMD, where Prime95 and Real-Time High-Dynamic Range Image-Based Lighting (RTHDRIBL) demo v1.2 was used for stress testing; 30 minutes before the voltages were sampled under load. The Intel used was also overclocked to 265FSB aswell. It ran very solid all the way.
The stamped back grill design, the strong Al heatsinks and the 120mm fan are very cooling effective and overall seriously quiet. With 20A being the max permitted for an Intel ATX12V design to make the 240V (12x20), I think this is as close to it you can get at the top.
On a side note I couldn't help but post this:
Enermax Galaxy 1KW, 5 12V rails!!! 
And also, has anyone some info on the
Antec Phantom 500. Its obviously a silent runner, but in testing it achieved 85-88% eff. below 200W and @ 90% efficiency for 250W, 89% @ 300W, 88% @ 350W and it stays the same all way above! Its pricey though, as the cheapest I found a few days back was @ $140.
Anyway, thanks.
