96 amps on the 12v
I don't see why you would need it though. What do you intend on powering?

edit: or you can save a few bucks
Newegg.com - PC Power & Cooling S75QB 750W EPS12V Power Supply 100 - 240 V UL, ULC, CE, CB, RoHS - Power Supplies
Please don't tell people it;s 96 amperage on the rail when it's really not becuase of efficiency loss...i sometimes tell people that their system needs X amount of amps on the 12's to run. If i tell a person their system needs 35 amps to run and you or sometime else tell them that a PSU with two 18A rails combined is 36amps and they buy it....in actuality the amps are probably lower more like 32 or 33 which puts them under. So make sure you watch how you say things.

If you want an 850W PSU then get this one
Newegg.com - XCLIO GREATPOWER X14S8P4 850W ATX12V / EPS12V Power Supply 100 - 240 V CE, TUV, cUL - Power Supplies

The PCP&C is an amazing psu i'm sure though
