Ive currently got a set of wire shelving (but contemplating building a frame) and hanging gpus from that and its ok but not easy to run cables and keep it neat. Now im only a hobby miner earning a few extra ££ considering the price of electricity here in the UK, but Im intrigued to see how many of you guys run only server psu’s and have everything mounted to a frame with all the cables neat and tidy. So if you've got pictures post them up  Angry

Yes, it's possible to run from one server PSU motherboards and all your psu's.  But you need to add 12V Pico Switch:
to your, server PSU be able to power the motherboard.


Yes my rig is running from a pico and its all connected to ONE seever psu. I’m asking if anyone has managed to mount it all to an aluminium frame. Im not asking how to set up a rig with a server psu.  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

I use just a server psu and breakout board for few of my rigs, works out great especially since there 240v psu's, ya only need a pico psu that's 150watts and a custom cable to power the pico

Thanks for the repy ive already got a pico and custom cable running the 8pin EPS aswell  Wink. Just curious about people server only setups.

Well I'm afraid I will not be qualified for the pic you asking for.
Cause while I have server psu it is working together with simple bronze psu for risers and rig power.
Server PSU for gtx power. and my wires are really not neat and tidy - it a nightmare))
