Post by: deslok on August 24, 2011, 02:24:46 PM Powering a psu with a psu will never allow more than the primary psu. A y pass through or power strip will allow more than one per wall socket however.

but actually does datacenter allow this imagine with that 450w at the 5.25 bay and a 1500w main psu we can power 4 x 6990 lol Title: Re: power 2 pc psu with just 1 socket?

Post by: bitlane on August 25, 2011, 01:59:14 AM You should inquire to see how many AMPS your socket will be. 10W is standard for most, 15+W sockets are sometimes a premium depending on the datacenter....then do your math accordingly.
