Wow how much have you spend on power supplies so far testing them? Thanks for doing this. Also if you love the 2500's and feel like dumping the 2000's let me know.

my out of pocket to run this thread
From finksy/j4bberwock
I was sent 1x 30 pin board for dual 2000/4000
I was sent 1x 20 pin board for ibm 2880 maybe it is 24 pin
I was sent 1 ibm 2880
I was sent 20 15awg pcie cables
I was sent 20 16awg pcie cables
All at no cost.
My purchases 3 ibm 2980 total of 310 = 150 + 80 + 80 and I turned on people to the good ebay price on this.
Two dps 2000 psu's total of 50
Two scythe fans total of 35
two nuctua fans total of 50
two 180mm silverstone fans total of 60
A few power cables total of 30
A few power plugs total of 20
A rack total of 20
Grand total 575
While that seems like a lot I returned an Evga 1600T2
and a Seasonc platinum 1200
They were close to 700 at amazon for the two of them
So I am 125 ahead and I can run over 6900 watts vs 2800 watts.
When I get the rest of the boards I can run 2880 + 2980 +2980 = 8840
GRAND TOTAL OF 15820 WATTS.
I am supposed to go partners with another forum member on a 60k solar array.
He does the solar I add the rest.
Hi Phil,
That's the one. I have one too many DPS2500BB and I was looking to get rid of it. I'd happily sell it to you instead of listing it. I'll beat that price on eBay by a bit, and you get a known good PSU. I ran it loaded at 2200W DC for a week and a half to stress test it when I received it. Could have it shipped out to you as soon as tomorrow. Let me know.

Do you know that the dual boards work with it?
