Hello,
If a power supply has two 12V lines, are they additive?
For example, let's say I'm comparing two brands, Brand A and Brand B. Brand A and Brand B are identical, except:
Brand A
12V1= 8A
12V2 = 14A
Brand B
12V = 22A
Would there be any difference?
Is there any advantage to getting a dual rail psu over a single rail psu?
My motherboard requires 18A on the 12V line. If I get a PSU with 8A on 12V1 and 14A on 12V2, would that satisfy the 18A requirement?
Thanks,
James
