The MOST POWERFULL 12V PSU EVER...

[hipro5]

Good idea George!
Plus, this way you won't need to build a bigger one for a couple years

Indeed.....

Phase cooled maybe ?

Not a bad idea...!....

If this will be just for the cards, won't the PC fry if there's a voltage differwence between the cards and the mobo? or will it be for the wole system? But then you'd have to do thr 5 and 3.3 V too. I'm a bit lost here.

Nowadays VGAs have another design and they are not burned down if you feed them with external Voltage

Hipro Like How Mach Is Be Cost

Don't know yet.......
Toroidal transformer has cost me 115 Euros, Heatsink another 50 Euros, Now I'll cost the Mos-Fets and all the other parts (box, etc.).....


EDIT: Now that I'm thinking some things, I wonder if it would be convinient to build in AND the 3.3V, 5V, -12V rails so as to be a "full" computer PSU......About a 2KW one...!.......

lol, go for it Hipro. If a job's worth doing it's worth doing well.

2KW would be seriously cool

"...About a 2KW one..."


Better get a dedicated line from the power company , no ?

The neighbors will start seeing their power like this -->

And then they realize: "It's the damm hipro5 that turned on that PSU"



Good luck !

HAHAH GOOD one

[Origin_Unknown]

Wow... looking forward to seeing this completed.

any chance of some pics hipro5?

[Zzzz]

2KW

What for? Kentsfield-Quad 88GTX-DDR3-50HD's System?

[CraptacularOne]

Dud, you just HAVE to go and make a 2kw PSU now! That would seriously be sick!

Raisng the bar before you've even begun, I like it. If your gonna go for a full blown PSU then it would probably be best to go modular on the big ones you have already mentioned -

12V
+5V
3.3V

But there are other ones to consider too:

-5V
+5VSB
-12V

To the best of my knowledge these arn't high current lines, the +5VSB is designed to draw about an amp (depending on how may things you have on standby on your PC, not many I think George ). The other two are the same, -5V is nothing at all and -12V is again 1-2amps. These supplies could be made on one singular board as the power requirements are not too high.


Finally the logic of the PSU

PWR-ON
PWR-OK

Those these arn't so tough, PWR-ON is just a internal switch and PWR-OK is a signal sent to the mobo when the PSU has checked all the rails are in spec.

It is achievable more so because you don't have to work within the constraints of a ATX PSU box dimensions. In many ways it reminds me of a good A class linear amp design and how important the PSU side of that was. Could be a good place to look for ideas on circuit design.

[prosk8]

wow but bad for the you cant cell

where you live the all and you fhins tell me i breake to your house and styel some things like the mobo tthe all and the psu ha ya and your brine
and i be the hipro gen 26 year
sorry for the english

[eva2000]

George you're insane... in a nice way!

I can imagine huge and beefy heatsinks used or just hook up 3/8" ID water cooling blocks to the heat sources

[Revv23]

Are you sure 85A will be enough for the video cards?

[Pipi]

Hm... Thanks for the info about newer cards. i've seen many warnings not to use multiple PSUs because you could fry something. But on the other note, DO IT! Make the whole PSU YOu're a legen hipro, you're known to do extreme and sick stuff and this... Dunno, is it normal or is it extreme for you?

I love that psu Too bad i don't live in Athens...

Their power is already like that Good luck HiPro

[MaSell]

Peak load 100A = 1200W for 12v

You are sick man

[LittleDevil]

Want to see that monster

hipro5, I know you are professional and maybe you don't need any help, but this page may help you.

man why the hell didnt I listen the teacher in the physical science courses in college. Damn cheerleaders..... i knew one day i would feel the bad side of those.

ahah no but seriously the lack of knowlege electronics and electricity pisses me off, i dont even know what a Amp and a Watt is, just know it needs alot.

Verry good hipro, 2KW modular and ownage power supplie feed, would sure make a Ownage Mass produstion unit to go along with your DDR maximizer

Starting your own line of components sounds like your calling bro..

I wanna see this beast in action ... Subscribed

[hipro5]

Thank you for your kind words guys and for the hands up.....

YOU persuate me to do it "all in one"......

SO: 12V/84A , 5V/75A , 3,3V/113A, 5Vstby/5A, -12V/5A = 1850Watts RMS* (24/7) and about 2360Watts Peak power....
How does this shound?.....

This just CAN'T be in mass production.....It will be hude, heavy and TOO much expencive.....It's just for my "hobby".....


*RMS > idiomatism(here) so as to be understood by everyone that means REAL output power and NOT "MAX" or "PEAK" power.

Uhh, overkill? I like it Not sure for what you'd need 75A on the 5v and 113A on the 3.3v though. Remember the PSU still needs to run cool, maybe it's better to makes the 3.3v and 5v rails a little less beefy? Ohh well, some deltas can take care of that problem

dont do it to be practical, do it cause you can.

when one builds a hot rod, they dont think about going to the store to get groceries in it... they do it, cause it's crazy and there to be done.

dont build something anyone can just go out and buy... theres nothing interesting if its just a variant of a 1000 watt PSU, when theres 20 others already out there.

do something we wont see again for years.
that is when its fun to see something happen...

a 2000 watt PSU?
haha...

like I always say...

"only Hipro..."

Important thing to remember Alexio is that these specs are for with the PSU will be capable of not what they'll be running 24/7. Of course there's not going to be an occasion that the many of these lines will ever draw the current George is designing it for. But, if you can do it, then do it! Overspecing will in fact allow for a cooler design as the power circuits will be under less "stress" to provide power requirements that are closer to their maximum, so will produce less waste heat.
