Title: Running different PSU on single mobo Post by: revvv on December 22, 2013, 10:45:58 AM Hey guys,
I have some PSU to use and I would like to use them to power my GPUs on a single mobo. How do I make them work together?

With one PSU I connected 3 GPU and Mobo etc, another PSU I power other 3 GPU. When I turn on the PSUs should I be careful to turn them on at the same time? If I delay for a second?? Title: Re: Running different PSU on single mobo Post by: sidehack on December 23, 2013, 09:39:10 AM I'd either wire them together so they both turn on at the same time automatically, or turn on the GPU-only supply first (but with as short a delay between the two as possible). I've never had a bad boot on a jerryrigged system using these methods.

I've never had a bad boot on a jerryrigged system using these methods. I am thinking this is motherboard dependent...i couldn't get this to work on mine. I would suggest that if you want the least amount of headaches stick to one psu. |
