    I think what linux is saying is that having 2 psu's is not going to polish a turd.....if a card is doing 1150 it probably sucks and 1 PSU is enough.

    As far as SF3D using 2 PSU, its preety simple, thats a multi rail PSU with XX amp limit per rail. Maybe he wanted to dedicate each PSU's rail to one power connector on a card.

    Seems it would make more sense on a single rail PSU though if you wanted to increase amperage though.

    I've got no strings to hold me down.
    To make me fret, or make me frown.
    I had strings but now I'm free.
    There are no strings on me
