i want to buy server psu 1200 watt or more


I'd get a backplane for 2 to slide in (that has the usual psu power protection stuff) and plug 2 1280 watts in  for a total of 2560 watts

mod the wires with 15 awg vs 16 awg and you don't need the Y adapters

ask on the stuff if it 15awg wires (if they come that way) also again ....no power protection on surges etc unless slid into the backplate arrangement

wit such...breakout boards if it fries it may take you Titan out with it

works good above 94% eff and platinum and 5 15 awg wires thru the dual backplate and 2 units at 1280 watts each for combined 2560 watt unit

have 5 leads on this at 15awg wire ..thus NO NEED FOR Y adapters...

NOT sure if that would be the case on only a 1200 watt server unit and the usual 16 awg wire

works good for me (if you can find the stuff above reasonably priced) whole thing in a gutted KNC Jupiter Metal case cost me 300 bucks ..much better then
300 bucks for just a corsair 1200i with 16 awg wires platinum at 91% eff on a newegg sale once a month for 300 bucks Smiley

anyway might be tough to find the stuff reasonably priced thou

anyway I'd try to get a set (2) of whatever server psu's you decide with the backplate and usual burn out and surge protection of a regular PSU in the backplate

pretty slick if you can find them at a good price easy hack

I can do a 1200W server PSU with breakout board and 10 18" PCIe cables (16AWG wire) for $90 shipped within the US.
