Title: how to use server psu without breakout board ? Post by: totti10it on May 07, 2018, 09:43:07 PM hi in my place here server psu's are available but the breakout boards are rare and expensive
so can i connect the 8 pin cables directly to the psu ?? Title: Re: how to use server psu without breakout board ? Post by: Pono on May 08, 2018, 09:29:51 AM No, you cannot connect 6pin directly to the PSU. I mean, technically yes as on the output you get +12 and GND but you really need a breakout board (you don't want to solder the wires, don't you?). They are not rare and definitely not expensive. I used to pay $4 per one board (15 x 6pin ports).
