Title: Can a PSU be "shared" between two systems Post by: joenova on January 07, 2018, 02:39:33 AM See pic for a schematic, is there any reason I shouldent use the same power supply to power a motherboard when that power supply is powering GPUs that are attached to another motherboard via pcie risers. The other motherboard in question is on a separate ps

I dont recommend use this scheme. Better using 2 low end psu for rig mobos and one high end for gpu's, and connect all 3 psu black (GND) + Green (PS-ON) wire mixed |
