now i have  cpu with motherboard FM 2 + A4 6300 (for mining)
and im use asrock fatality K4/D3 + i5 6400 for daily usage,
my power supply seasonic X1250 gold + FSP hexa Arum

i want to use FSP hexa aurum for 2motherboard then i can use seasonic only vor vga

any special cable ? or any trick ?

I have to say that I've never thought of this. Two PSUs for one motherboard is more common. You trick would be to find an ATX x24 splitter, and if you can't, you won't be able to do what you want to achieve.

My first concern is the amperage draw.  If you're considering this, I'd strongly suggest researching the amps provided on each line for your PSU (3.3v, 5v, 12v).  You need to make sure that PSU supplies enough amps to supply both boards without being overtaxed.

Also, not sure how powering on would work...pushing power button on one mobo would turn PSU on, which would send power to both PCs...yeah, more I think about this, the riskier it sounds.

Tread carefully bro.

If you can afford the GPUs to fill the Seasonic you can afford a third PSU. You're just asking for trouble trying
to power 2 mobos with one PSU.

I did this once a long time ago to a bunch of computers, there are some unique issues , powering on once you turn on on the other one gets power and some stuff comes on but it doesn't turn on until you press it's power button. I think I bought a bunch of ATX extenders and hacked them together, it is not worth the effort really ATX power supplies are so cheap.

if you live in the usa I will send you a psu at a good price.

HM i wouldn't do that you might burn something up sharing PSU's  that way .  you can probable do it using a switch but not one PSU with two Mother boards at the same time . if that's the plan .
