Dual psu question

[wss_003]

Im doing a build useing a desk as the case. This is not my first build but this is the first time Ive considered useing dual psu. I have a xfx 1050 and a 750 not sure what modle off hand but it is a good psu, im going to have over 10 fans 3 pumps leds and a few other fun parts of that nature for water cooling, also I have an oced 8320 4.7 at 1.47 volts and in top of that I will have 2 290x that will likely turn into three when the 300 seires comes out and the price drops. My issue is do i put the cpu mobo hdds and ssds pumps fans... On the 750 and run the two soon to be three 290x on the 1050 or is there a better way to hook them up

run your pumps harddrives other gadgets off the small PSU I keep your MOBO & video cards on 1 I asum you are using something like this to run your gadgets etc

Yea I will be but the issue is the 1050 isnt enough for three 290x and my oced cpu let alone when i oc the cards if i can get them all stable so those 4 components have to be split in some manner

There are a number of adapters to link 2 psu's so they both power on with the motherboard. Maybe something like this will help?

So long as both psu's are tied together and come on at the same time, split up your components between the two psu's you're using based on amp needs, how many rails they have (if either use more than a single 12v rail setup). You'll still need to be wary of what's connected to what rail on each psu if they both involve multi rail power delivery.

As far as powering on the psu i have that covered just wasnt sure how to split everything for sure
