From what I picked up in my testing, the OCZ GameXstream is one powerful PSU, and is extremely efficient. It can put up with excessive loads on the 12v rails and still maintain very little fluctuation on the rails. The only drawback that I can see is with next generation hardware being possibly held back; an Intel Kentsfield, combined with an X1950XTX in crossfire would certainly give this PSU a run for its money during excessive overclocking.
Most users probably would never demand more than the OCZ could provide. It certainly offers itself to a large market of users, and performs amazingly well. Any user in the market should take a look at the GameXstream.
The OCZ GameXstream certainly offers more than enough power for the current generation of hardware and provides great stability for your computer system. Any user who plans to power thousands of dollars worth of computer components must surely be able to afford the newest power supply OCZ offers, the 1000W ProXstream. I'm sure that one will contain all of the quality performance and attention to detail for which OCZ is known.
