You can't compare the efficiency if you don't take the total wattage of the PSU into account.
If you test each unit at approximately 70% load then you can compare them.
1300 watt test @ ~ 900 load
2000 watt test @ ~1400 load
2880 watt test @ ~2000 load
I'm sorry to bother you that much but I do believe many customers would like to know anyway.
Moreover I thought MOST server PSUs delivery platinum or even titanium efficiency yet the numbers you provide are hardly even gold efficiency.
I heard of 94-96% efficiency server units, which are they?
In the end, you have a load which needs to be powered. It doesn't matter if you do that with a 2880w PSU or a bunch of 900w PSU's.
This week I'll extend the measurements up to 6x S1.
I will add a 1100w ATX PSU to the test.
To be honest, I expected higher efficiency as well If you have a suggestion, let me know so I can test them the same way...
