One of the features of the OCZ PowerStream that really stands out is the ability to adjust your rails into spec.  In my opinion, this is nothing more than a gimmick.  It's good in the sense that everyone's idle load is different, so you can get the voltage dead on for your particular build, but a well made power supply shouldn't fluctuate to the point where you would NEED to adjust the rails if there's a 10 or even 20A load difference from one PC to the next.

I had fun with them.  They're touchy as hell, though!  Bareley move the screw one millimeter and you're off by .2V!
