hey there
just wondering, silly question but perhaps might make a difference.
i have a 400 wat psu, and another brand new 400 watt psu.. i was wondering if it would be any benefit to my system if i was to use both of them. for example, one psu for mobo and another for [COLOR=green ! important][COLOR=green ! important]graphics [COLOR=green ! important]card[/color][/color][/color], hdd, cd rom etc.
because i will be having to upgrade to a much better psu soon wen i get new mobo and [COLOR=green ! important][COLOR=green ! important]cpu[/color][/color], but would this be just as good as getting a new 600 wat psu or just a stupid idea? and would it work?
i ask because i think my gpu needs more power
cheers

It will work, but it's a bit of a drastic action and it's extremely messy.

If you follow the link in my signiture (PSU Calculator) and enter in what your computer is, it will tell you how much power you need.

Wouldn't it be kinda hard? Since each PSU is configured to connect and receive power/reset orders straight from the mobo (that big power connector) and also is connected to the CPU 12v rail, without the 12v rail the PSU doesn't stay running, and without the mobo connector it doesn't start.
