I am adding a video card ( PowerColor RX 480 - 8GB) to a 2U server (don't ask : ) The server PSUs do not have any spare power outputs. They have a 12-wire connection to the motherboard and not the regular 24-wire one.
I plan to get SeaSonic SS-520FL2 520W fanless PSU and power it on with the jumper trick which means it will be always on.
Would this create an electrical problem if the computer is turned off (no power to the card from the pcie slot) while the card still receives power from the power connector on top?
Thanks!
