No i have read it in there set up guide I have since found out what it does and it distrbutes power evenly over equipment I just dont know why I would need one with 1000 watt power supply in a personal home computerWelcome to the forums, newcomer!
Did you ask them what the PDU is and what it does? Were they stating that you use a surge protector?
Its A Dell Xps with a intel I9 13th Gen and Nvidia 4070 GPUWhat brand and model CPU and GPU are you planning in the new computer?
So when they say it should be used with a PDU because it is 1000 watt I should do this I just have never heard of anybody using a PDU with a home personal computerAh, it's a Dell with proprietary 12v only stuff all over the place. 750w should be fine but if Dell says 1000w you get 1000w.
Probably a typo. The D is next to the S on the keyboard.I just have never heard of anybody using a PDU with a home personal computer
Maybe, but you would think OP would have heard of PSUs being used in home personal computers like they said.Probably a typo. The D is next to the S on the keyboard.
You are right I should have provided this linkIt would be useful if the poster simply provided a link to an image of the text in question in their manual.
There's something absolutely bizarre about asking people to interpret something you read in a manual, but then leaving people to have to completely guess what the manual actually says.
Its not a typoProbably a typo. The D is next to the S on the keyboard.
Here is the link that recommends by Dell to use a PDUMaybe, but you would think OP would have heard of PSUs being used in home personal computers like they said.
Okay, but what exactly is a PDU?Yeah, you don't need a PDU. Their PCs that are configured to that much power are intended for having a high likelihood of use in workplace/server environments. It has no consumer purpose.
Is your google malfunctioning?Okay, but what exactly is a PDU?
