I can confirm that these
http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/51762-10802400ABLF/609-4020-ND/1492063

are the correct connector for the dps-2000bb power supplies. I'm currently building them into harnesses for the 12 supplies I have here. Can't wait, running these should drop my power supply costs tremendously. I'll be testing current draw on them with a variety of cards, but if other sources are correct, I think 2000+ watts worth of cards can run from each. Imagine 6-7 r9-280x or 10-12 r9-270x per $40 supply!! (plus harness stuff, which I'm making)

 

Could you help me locate the ones for these power supplies.

Definitely test the load-balancing on those if you can.

Got my first 5 protoypes of these today, they are working perfect so far. Going to conduct some tested with the dell 750w, will report back.

Can you make one for supermicro power supplies too? I'd be willing to buy a ton of them if they were supermicro compatible.
Something like this  http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-SuperMicro-CSE-PT823-PD5i2-2U-Power-Supply-Backplane-/220979395258 except made with PCI-E connectors in mind.

Ok, yeah, the 51761 and 51762 series work well for stuff with a 0.250" pitch on the power connectors, and they're generally in stock...  we're still chasing down the 0.200" version.  We've got part numbers now (51915 series); it's just a matter of finding something that actually exists, instead of phantom active status parts with no stock anywhere in the world and not insignificant minimum buys.  One of my suppliers responded this morning, and they're looking into it for me, but it's still an 'everyone is on vacation until next week' sort of deal.

It sounds like we've got quite a few power supplies that people want to support, all with different interfaces.  We should probably put together a list of the most popular ones so we don't miss anything.

I'm in the same boat, except with PCB manufacturers. Everyone's gone for the holidays, hoping it gets better soon....

I'll keep an eye out on this thread and add info I think will be helpful  Grin

Good call, I was thinking about saying the same thing.

Yeah, I was just going to stack them up and cover one side in fans. I'm just going to make bulk leads, soldered directly to the terminals of the blocks I've got coming in. Cheap and dirty, I need to set up four of these now and four more in a week or two. I'm just happy to get major power supplies working on my 240 circuits.

That is the same P# I ordered as well. Works good, but needs a custom pcb due to the different pin pitches. I was able to cram it into a regular proto board with some tweaking  Grin

The 6 pin mini-fit jr connectors I bought are not pci-e, one pin is square, but the female socket on the gpu is rounded. These came from a batch of GPUs. Once I realized the mistake in connectors I ordered I cannibalized the 4 pin molex adapter cables, using new pins from digi. Most cards I've ordered come with them. The +2 P/N is wm7263-nd, it fits properly but is missing the little ridges that make it mate on the proper end of the 6 pin connector.  

Frozencpu.com sells the proper 6 pin, but I haven't found the right one on digi. You can see the two types, check to make sure you get the right one. I've never seen a supplier for the proper 8 pin pci-e plug. I lucked out and my dual-x gpus came with dual 8 pin gpu power adapters.

Due to the design of the server/tower/whatever these PSUs came from they never came with internal fans. The entire chassis had engineered cooling to run on one huge fan or something. I took one apart to check out the heatsinks and figure out the best orientation for a fan, pretty sure I'm going to go with two nice delta fans while running pairs of these stacked so air flows through horizontally. If all my gpu's come with pci-e power adapters this will be a super cheap power supply!

I think I found those card edge connectors at digi, maybe? Not sure what you are after?





The part number I ordered is
http://www.digikey.com/product-search/en?WT.z_header=search_go&lang=en&site=us&keywords=609-4020-ND%09&x=-1708&y=-51&formaction=on

For the DPS-2000BB that is. I'm pretty sure it will work.

Pontiac, where did you get those lovely pci-e power connectors?

The 2000W power supply is not cooling fan?

Yeah the best I can do right now is a 51761 modified, that's what the current prototype is using. The standard spacing for those is 0.25" on the power sockets, so I gotta basically hollow out all the pastic and mount the blade sockets to the PCB on 0.20" without any support.

Correct connector for which?

I'm pretty sure I found the correct connector for those at digikey, I'm ordering them and I'll let you know when they arrive.
Would you mind sharing the part numbers?

I snatched up a few of the dps-2000bb power supplies, I'd like to get a few of these boards from you if they are compatible, or at least know where you get the main connector from, I can make my own boards on protoboard.
Thanks!

I was going to make this same post.

The best I've been able to find on my own is the 1010613X family.

These look to be the closest equivalents, but I haven't checked every single measurements on the datasheet yet.  I also can't find any stock on them anywhere.

I also had some false leads on the 51761 family, but the power connector spacing was incorrect. Still looking.

From FCI I've gotten a fairly stamped response "I'm talking to a product engineer, hopefully I can update you before Dec 31st". Molex says they don't see anything in distributor inventory and tech support might be able to help me find a compatible replacement.
