When using a high efficiency PSU (90%), It is a good idea to use one PSU to power two motherboards. Because those high efficiency PSU are very expensive and also high power ( > 800 Watts). A normal Intel I5 or I7 plus MB consume only about 200Watts, or maybe 300watts(with a high end graphics card). An article about one PSU power two MBs: http://www.overclock.net/t/112866/how-to-use-one-power-supply-to-power-two-motherboards-safely |

Hey Hal, Doh! I had left the ending slash off when I pasted the link. I guess http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/Components,1/Power-Supplies,6 is not the same as http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/Components,1/Power-Supplies,6/.
