I bought two. Can the modules be run in parallel for high curent output?

Hi, the output is limited to whatever the input power is. Example: 12 volts @ 20 amps is 240watts total available power. If you convert it to 24 volts, you only have 10 amp outpue minus whatever the conversion draws. You can't get power out of things air. Make sure to use additional heatsinks as these are rated 150 watts max. Good luck!!

Don't know, i have not used mine yet.I don't see why you couldn't.You may have to put a diode on the output of each one, i had to do that on 2 Astron 12 v power supplies years ago to get them to play nice together.Hope this helps.Mike

I have a setup with 4 in parallel.However if you wish to modify the voltage on all units at once from one source (and prevent the devices from drawing more current over another in the same string) read below.1. Remove the adjustable blue potentiometer on all but one unit2. In a parallel fashion, tie the feedback and the output (the two holes on the board that the potentiometer was sitting in) between each module.3. ProfitI did this as I needed a 400watt step-up for my 200 wall led light bar (difference between 14v and 26v is huge).

Yes. Each module output voltage and current. Connect two in series gives you double voltage. Cunnect two in parallel gives you double the current.

Yes, but make sure both PSU's are plugged in to some sort of Battery Back Up + Surge Protection. Otherwise you'll fry both during an electrical surge.

You may not even need a bigger power supply. It would be worth it to try without changing your power supply first. I'm running an i7 3930k, 32 gb ram, and two of these cards on only a 750 watt... Depending on the wattage if your stock power supply you should be okay!

Yes you can run 2-3s lipos in parallel for longer run time. 3s max tho on that system.

This can run 2 of them, just make sure your power supply is up to the task. The official manual for the MSI MPOWER MAX states: "Supports 2-Way NVIDIA SLI Technology" Link for manual download: http://us.msi.com/service/download/manual-20911.html

yes, you must install a 1500w psu for both graphics card, then youll have a quadfire installation, so it requires more power, greetings and hace a nice day

Yes. I am currently running nearly twice that on it, concurrently, with no issues.

The timing/speed data from only one fan is passed to the motherboard; the pulse width modulation (PWM) from the motherboard is delivered the same to both fans. It would probably be a good idea to use identical fans.

It is possible I think to run one card on a 460 supply, I have 1250 power supply and am running 2 cards.

I was running an Antec 850W and it was fine. But, when I bought another card to run in Sli, I had to bump it up to over 1000W. I think it will all depend on what else you are running.

If you have more than one or two internal hard-drives you might want to go with the bigger wattage. I have a home server that I loaded up too many drives and the overloaded the power supply to the point it wouldn't boot.

You aren't going to get twice the power from two cards. You'll get roughly 1.5 times the power, more graphics give diminished returns. It will double the power consumption and heat though.

Hello, You would need to remove 4GB Module and install 2 Modules 8GB each. Best regards, Amuras

You can't purchase two kits and make them work as one.. The memory modules must be made at exact same time in exact conditions.. If the kits says it's dual core then it's dual core if the kit says it's for quad core it's for quad core you can't mix-and-match or combine

I have a single unit (not overclocked because I don't wan't to void the manufacturer's warranty) powered by a Corsair RM750. It's a well-built, gold certified modular psu with a massive heat sink. I've had it running 24/7 and have had exactly zero issues with it.

I use a 750w psu for 2 of them in a crossfire configuration, works like a dream.
