Found this at Frozencpu.com and thought it might be something some people could use

The Bitspower X-Station Multi PSU Module lets you run up to 4 power supplies simultaneously by connecting them to the connectors on the X-Station and jumping one of the X-Station's connectors with the included ATX Power Supply Jumper. This module is a must for enthusiasts that want to ensure clean power for their video cards by providing them with their own power supply.
so wait a minute......could you simply plug in two power supplys into this and then run one cable from it to the motherboard.....can you combine power supplies this way? would like to see this unit tested in one of the PSU reviews to see what it can handle! maybe it would be better to run two decent 500W PSU's than one 1000W PSU?
as for the device for sale, save yourself the $20 and just put a paperclip from the green pin to any of the black pins lol
The trouble with just useing the paper clip trick is that you do need a slight load on the 5v rail, as that helps to stablize the 12v rail.
If I'm running a supply with a paper clip for any lenght of time, I tend to connect a molex to a CD drive or hard drive just to give it a load on the 5v rail.
Luck ...........
Yes indeed you can.do you think it would be possible to run 2 systems from 1 psu on that if you obtained another 24pin cable
Agreed, especially when decent PSUs can actually be found for a good price these days.yup, splitting one PSU between 2 systems, i recall hearing the problems is more the 3 and 5v rails just dont have the juice for 2 systems, pending on specs really. but your asking for more trouble then it is worth
