power supply for Chenbro RM13704

[rbab]

Hello everyone ,
what type of power supply or alternate power supply is suitable for Chenbro RM13704 or kindly check this link http://www.natex.us/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=RM13704package-64GBBF&CartID=1 ,
i am going to buy this server and from India so i have little doubt if something goes wrong with psu may i get any alternate for that , sorry for asking dump question but i need help here ,thank you !

If you go to the manufacturer's site, they say the PSU Form Factor:

http://www.chenbro.com/en-global/products/RackmountChassis/1U_Chassis/RM13704

"1U Single or Redundant"

Searching for "1U PSU" on most any electronic retailer's site should find you plenty of models to choose from.

Example: http://www.amazon.in/Xeal-TC-1U70PD8-XealUSA-700W-80plus/dp/B008RS3FJA/

(I'm not endorsing that particular one. The price seems high, too.)

One does not "tweak" a power supply unless one wants to set stuff on fire. They are best considered "sealed" units. If one goes bad, you replace it.

The ATX power connector is pretty much universal, so any power supply will work with that motherboard, provided it puts out enough watts.

That page does list a couple recommended power supplies - they are absolutely standard ATX units, same as you'd find in any full size desktop computer.

The restrictions with a power supply usually depends what case you put it in.

That motherboard is an odd form-factor - "SSI EEB" according to the Intel website. So you'd need to find a case that will fit that. A bit of googling suggests that E-ATX cases will more or less work okay, although you might need to move/add a couple additional mounting holes / standoffs.

thanks for the reply Dave,

will this psu support for that motherboard http://www.amazon.in/Enter-E-500B-C...d=1484755230&sr=1-1&keywords=atx+power+supply

That PSU will probably get the motherboard fired up and booted, but it's only a 500w unit - you'll notice that the recommended units were 7500/850 watt models.

Also, frankly, that's too cheap. I'm suspicious. This review reinforces that caution:

What's your budget? http://www.amazon.in/Corsair-CP-902...11?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1484760941&sr=1-11

my budget is $100-150 for psu and i have cm force 500 cabinet already will this work for that , thanks !

That case only lists compatibility with ATX size boards. (305x244mm) whereas the motherboard there is E-ATX size. (305x330mm).

So it's unlikely to work without some (maybe even a lot) of internal modifications.

thanks for reply , how about these smps , I am comfort with all prices shown in this link below

Definitely the 750w one.

you are so nice Dave , does the 750w has dual power output for dual cpu , sorry for asking like this , I am not cpu tech

Probably not - but it has enough wattage, which is the important part. (Most power supplies just run everythng off of a single 12v rail, so the number and type of connectors is almost incidental. Just wire up what you need with the appropriate adapters. There are caveats here with amperage loads on individual wires, but you are unlikely to run into those limits.)

You'll just need an 8-pin splitter cable, and possibly some extensions.

http://www.amazon.in/Motherboard-Supply-Y-Splitter-Adapter-Sleeved/dp/B0094PBKN8/

Most PSU manufacturers wouldn't bother with multiple 8-pin CPU outputs since most users wouldn't ever need them. They do often have multiple GPU 8-pin outputs, but the pinout is different. (So be careful!)

hello Dave ,

I ordered two items of this https://www.natex.us/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=S2600CP-SR0H8-128GB-12800

for cooling heat sink http://www.amazon.in/Cooler-Master-...UTF8&qid=1485183950&sr=1-5&keywords=heat+sink

and how about this
https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-SuperNO...5176467&sr=1-4&keywords=750+power+supply&th=1

https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-SuperNO...r=1-2-catcorr&keywords=evga+power+supply&th=1

does the 8-pin splitter cable will burn in heavy usage ?

Should work.

The 8-pin splitter should be good to supply 12v power to two CPUs, as long as whoever made it didn't use substandard wires or too thin a guage. I'd actually worry more about the PSU's wiring, since it's gotta carry 2x the load.

Wire has a certain amperage/wattage load that it can handle, relating roughly to the gauge of the wire. (Thicker wire carries more current.) Multiply the TDP of the CPUs you choose by two, divide by 12, that's roughly peak amperage. If you have, say, a pair of 115w CPUs, the PSU's wiring (and the PSU itself) will need to handle 20A at 12v, minimum. Using lower-TDP CPUs may work to your benefit here, if you want to engineer in a lot of room for error.

The amperage ratings are usually stamped on the wiring itself, although sometimes it's a bit hard to read.

And yes, if the wires are overloaded, they will get hot, burn through their insulation, and short. You will see smoke and probably damage your hardware. So don't turn something on unless you're darned sure it's going to work!

Some power supplies do have dual CPU outputs, like the Corsair AX750.
