ok, i am planning to put 8 sunon 80mm fans to work cooling my main rig, it is a full tower case, it also has a space for a 2nd powersupply, not this is what i am planning......
right now the system is being powered by a 300W Sparkle powersupply, works fine, but i don't want to create a stability problem by hooking up all thoose fans to it
so, i have another 300W antec power supply that i want to use for the fan power, but it is an old ATX, the old school ones with the physical switch
i want to set something up, some redundancy system that would shut both of the powersupplies down, if one of them failed, IE: if my fan powersupply dies, i don't want the rest of the rig gettin crispy
any ideas on how this could be done??
i would also like it if i could switch them both on at the same time, with one switch
*EDIT* sorry to the mods, i ment to post this in the GH forum, delete this thread, sorry
