    I followed a few threads concerning the above, but it seems as though those topics have come to an abrupt halt. I know there is the option to run 2 x 240s in parallel for more headroom, but I was wondering if anyone who has compared the 2 PSUs is finding any obstacles to displacing and replacing the PSU IDs so the 330W PSU will work with the R2?

    Thank you in advance.
