Title: Asus B250 mining with 4 PSU
Post by: Eneen on January 26, 2018, 06:57:25 PM
I need more power :) so I though it might be possible to stack PSUs using such adapter:

It would be like this:
- two "main" PSUs to section A and B
- two "remote" PSUs to main PSUs and corresponding GPUs in sections A and B. Those remote PSU would then only power GPUs, nothing more, adapter doesn't send power to "main" PSU at all.
Has someone done this? I've made such things before but here I've got additional atx24 connectors...

use server PSUs. they come in 2400w and 2880w flavors on ebay. instant on, doesn't need to be connected to your motherboard

Thank you. Server PSUs are not an option here because of noise.
Any clues about my config proposal?

Server PSUs are silent if you only use them at 50% load.
