I am designing a power supply for a computer, the 12V rail needs to be capable of supplying 12v@40A continuous power. I will be using an iron core transformer to step down the current, and a full wave rectifier consisting of 4 diodes and a capacitor to get 12vDC. I can't count on the input for the power supply to be completely consistent, so I will need a voltage regulator on the 12v power rail, or an AC voltage regulator on the mains. The regulator should be capable of compensating for small voltage drops as well if possible.
If you have any suggestions on how to build a regulator to those specifications, I will greatly appreciate any help.
PS. change the title to: "12v 40A voltage regulated power supply", I got a black screen every time I used a long title, so I shortened it.
