Re: single or multiple 12V rail

I've got a new PSU here from Tagan that has a switchable feature that will combine 6 12V rails into a single, high amperage rail. The single-rail mode is called "Turbo".

Could Gizmo or one of the other Illuminati take a look at this and tell me why I'd want to set it one way or the other?

It is my understanding that this single v. multiple rail controversy isn't always what it seems to be, and is often used for marketing purposes. I've done my homework and have my own thoughts but I'd like a little input from someone more knowledgeable than I am.
