How do you recommend setting it up?


Should I just use one psu for mobo/cpu etc and the other for graphics or are there other ways to set it up?

ATI 6870 1gb
Q8400 cpu
4Gb DDR2
You can try different things. But I would for sure have the GPU and CPU on different PSU's.
I put 1 PSU on P1 and jumped the other P1 on the other PSU.

1 PSU's 12v male plug-in on the MOBO then the other male plug-in from the other PSU on the MOBO.

Your HD you connect to the PSU that you think will preform the best.
Then your CD/DVD player connect to your other PSU.

You can try different things to see what works the best with your HD and CD/DVD player.

After you set this up can turn up your setting on your Video card.

And your PC will be much faster. Mine is anyway.

Hope this helps.


Let us know how it works.
