Is there some trick to getting these Pico PSUs to power on the motherboard that I'm just not seeing? I have plugged the Pico PSU into the 24 pin connector on the mobo. Plugged the EPS pigtail into the CPU EPS connector on the mobo. Then plugged the 6 pin cable and barrel adapters together and plugged that into my server PSU's breakout board. I get a blue light on the Pico PSU so it appears to be getting power properly... but when I hit the power button on my rig, nothing happens. If I unplug the barrel adapter and plug it back in, I see the CPU fan spin for a second. This is the same behavior you will see if you are using a regular ATX PSU and you pull and re-plug the power cable on it. So it seems like everything should be connected properly... but it just won't power on. If I remove the Pico PSU, and plug in a spare ATX PSU to the same 24 pin/EPS connectors, everything powers up just fine. So, I know there is nothing else configured incorrectly. My server PSU powers my GPUS just fine, so I know the server PSU and breakout board works fine.
Also, Finsky... I sent you a couple of PMs about my previous order a few weeks ago. I know you have been recovering from your disaster, so I've been patiently waiting, but if you could at least acknowledge that you got the PMs and what the plan is for fulfilling that order, I'd be grateful.

i had a similar problem, but this was because of my impatience, i was still trying to power my main gpu, the one on the pcie16x (usb riser part ) from a different psu and it didn't like that at all. and was causing the same symptoms you have now.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I've tried running nothing but the mobo with the Pico PSU that is directly connected to the server PSU and breakout adapter. I've connected no GPUs or risers to the server PSU and the Pico PSU still will not allow me to turn on the mobo.

guys,
still trying to sort out these server PSU's. I see on eBay that there are a bunch of used, "server pulls," aka seller refurbished. There are some that are listed as DPS-1200fb-1, I suspect that's the one that we want? What about the DPS-1200SB-A?
thank

The way i did it was make my own cable till the 30” PCIe to EPS adapter assembly with barrel jack pig-tailed for powering Pico PSU (shown WITH Pico PSU connected, not included) - $6 are in stock ... is take one of these https://centrix-intl.com/details.asp?Parent2ID=1&productid=13186 and found a cheap in stock 10 pack of these on sell on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01G0Q4422/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and it worked but i see the 30” PCIe to EPS adapter assembly with barrel jack pig-tailed for powering Pico PSU are in stock now, but I see he not taking orders yet . so i have to wait and do what I came up with till then and can use my 1200 and 2400 watt server PSU, while i /we wait ....

Is there something I can wire so that if I have to power cycle my mining rig that has a standard atx evga psu for the motherbboard as well as an hp1200 server psu to turn on the server psu with the atx? Right now if i power cycle, the server psu doesn't turn on and the system won't boot properly. I have to shut it down and manually push the button on the breakout board to turn the server psu on. I know their are pico adapters. My question is, is there something that allows me to use both and turn on both at the same time.

one of these break out boards does but I'm still trying to figure out how to power off everything when i do remote shut downs, i know you can some do it but they won't tell me how i have asked even offered to pay for the tip , sooner or later I'll get it . http://www.ebay.com/itm/DPS1200FB-power-supply-breakout-board-adapter-GPU-miner-remote-on-12V-Ethereum-/302387593983? I don't know what wire i need to run it from the four pin header on the break out board to the Pico's powering the motherboard that will tell it to shut down everything. I think Finksy makes that cable but right now, like he said hes not able to do any orders ..

Same here, looking for all connectors required for an IBM 2880W PSU to power a few GPU rigs with motherboard, 12v CPU, fans, and Solid state drive. I have the PSU and the PCIe breakout boards. Any suggestions where to buy in US?

1. You get an adaptor cable made to suit. I used a 6pin to 8pin eps cable with a pigtail coming out of the 6pin end to power the pico. 2. Buy a 6pin to molex adaptor/splitter and run the fans directly from the psu, not the pico.

Unfortunately i cant find both of these cables online so i guess im searching for the wrong keywords. Could you please share some ebay/amazon/aliexpress links? Tyvm

Has anyone seen these ready made cables with 4/8 pin EPS, PCIe 6pin, and barrel connector for pico ATX anywhere? Is Finksy still selling these? I don't see anything anywhere saying how to order this stuff from Finksy.

I have just had the same issue. I uplugged working rig to add some new cards, plugged it all back in and fan spun on MB for a second then nothing. So after pulling my hair out I realized the Pico had gone! It’s outputting the 3v, but no 12v. Hours wasted. These Pico’s do not seem very robust.
