1kW for a desktop? What on earth do you have in there?

1000 watts isn’t even a huge gamer pc...

I had to use a i9 cpu... a i7 didnt have enough traffic lanes to run 3 video cards...
i9 alone was $1000 ;(

I haven’t built a pc since the i7 was king... I built a few ryzen systems for customers... I have looked at the i9’s specs... wow.
My system needs an upgrade... I may build something along those lines, but I mostly use an iPad nowadays... I just started tinkering with a Pi4... cool little machines.

A PI is nice .... I started using a PI for KODI, but then moved that to a CHROMEBOX, now I got a NVIDIA Shield....

But the PI, im running what is called PiHole....(google it)... If you need I made a TXT File on EXACTLY What you do and type etc.... BLOCKS ADS,it does it at the DNS Level so when a browser (aka webpage.. wants a url from a ad server... it gets pi-holed) ahah and all other kinds of nasties... on my WHOLE NETWORK... including cell... (same wifi network)...

Size the main leads fairly large in relation to your current and fusing. But in general a 12V system will use 2/0 or 4/0 wiring. For the short wiring of components, I almost always use bus bars. Very neat, clean and handles more power than you can throw at them.
