Yep -it is crazy. I did a double take when I read that, and it explained my circuit breaker popping - and the need to reset it. I thought it had a short at first.

This is the PSU in question:

It is on page 1 of the manual - http://www.silverstonetek.com/downloads/st60fmanual.pdf

Looks like I was wrong! Only 50 Amps! (only)

PS. A thought just occured to me - the inrush voltage of the video board is going to be high as well - the reason the protection of the PSU kicks in and the reason for the lack of power to the whole system for it.
