How could this PSU plug into a 24pin?

[Gustinc]

I bought a server power supply for mining purposes, which has the following cables:

12x 6+ 2pin

12x 6pin

12x6pin

Molex for fans

Didn't notice that it doesn't have a 24pin cable for a motherboard and also no cable for the SSD.
Is there a way to connect the 24pin and SSD through adapters or should I refund the PSU?

The website says that the 12x 6pins are for the motherboard. Can I just plug in 4x 6pins in the 24pin?

Also, the motherboard has 2 24pin slots. Do both of them need to be filled?

post the make and models(mb/psu) so people know wat youre trying to work with.

Are you using an HP/DELL server psu with breakout board? I ran this setup for a while using 6x RX 570 8GBs and one 900w/1200w HP server PSU without any issues.

1. Use a Pico ATX PSU to power the 24-pin/8-pin CPU and SATA drive
2. Connect molex from Pico PSU to server PSU's breakout board to jump both PSUs on power button press
3. This works best assuming you're powering all your cards with powered pcie risers

Cards are powered by risers. Mine does not have a breakout board therefore I'm just limited to the cables that come out of it.

Where do I put the molex and other cables if I only have 1 psu?

Hmmm looks like that PSU was made for this motherboard:

You might just have to start the PSU manually to power the cards first then use a regular ATX PSU to turn on the board w/ a 24-pin if you're going to be using your board or that specific 2500w PSU.

And the 2500W psu can connect to the cpu, insdeat of the pico having to do that. Does that change anything?

I noticed that too late and I'd like to make this work as is. How can I manuay start the PSU?

 

[pendragon1]

dont think you can, its meant for a certain board. its also not a server psu, its a mining psu.

 

[legcramp]

Yeah what pendragon1 said or you can find the pinout similar to a 24-pin ATX connector and use the paperclip method to jump it. You might need to ask mineshop for help on that.
