same question as above!

does it work with other dpsxx00bb psu's?

do the load balance between them? or do you make some electronic modifications to the psu's
from what i know there is always a imbalance or something like that

What would a full kit look like on price?   One with board, PSU's, all PCI-e cables, etc.

And congratz that is one heck of a PSU, nicely done.

What happens if one of the power supplies dies, will the entire thing gracefully shut down?  Is the DPS-2000BB platinum rated also?

I'd be in for at least 10...

nice!
are the right and left part corresponding to the psu's or how do i know i don't power same blade from 2psu's?

This board acts like a single 4000w PSU, no need to worry about which plug to connect here ot there

We were working on an idea like that earlier this year too; never got to prototype but the idea is sound.

very interested. id likely take 1-2 of them.

dps2000 is nice because you can use any fans you like to control noise levels

I've been working on something since april or may, it evolved with the S5+, and another time with the announcement of the S7.

Since pictures may speak better than words, here are some first shots of the prototype:





http://imgur.com/a/nZIA7

Tech specifications:

4 layers of copper, 2oz on each layer
4000w output with 2x DPS-2000 BB.
30x PCI-E connectors
On/off switch
Optional adjustable output voltage from 12v to 13.7v on the older DPS-2000 BB PSUs
Optional voltmeter if you want to adjust the output.

Sideplates with M3 threads (nutserts or similar) to attach both PSUs together and make the 120mm fans installation easier: 2 screws to remove from the PSUs, attach the plate, screw the fans, "et voila".

Expected price: $55.
Maximum size of first batch will be 150 boards.

Here are the pricelist and options:

Standard board without voltage adjustment:
1-25 boards total ordered -> 57$
26-50 boards total ordered -> 54$
51-100 boards total ordered -> 50$
over 100 boards total ordered -> 47$

Options:
Sideplate: $6
Adjustable voltage option: $5.5
Voltmeter with pin header matching the boards: $5.5

No volume discount available on options for now, my buy price is quite high.
