Want to improve the performance of your PC without spending a lot of money for a big power supply….?

Advantages
More power supplied = more performance….
No need to switch on/off second power supply manually….

What u need
1. Spare Power Supply
2. A relay ( 10A DC 12V )
3. Wires for connections

For a better connection of wires, you can use a soldering iron.

Step 1
As shown in the diagram, connect green & black wires of the 24 pin connector(from the spare power supply) to the switching part of the relay. Be sure the connections to the relay is done properly to the Normally-open (NO) contacts. (connect the circuit when the relay is activated; the circuit is disconnected when the relay is inactive. )

Step 2
Connect Yellow & black wires of a pheripheral connector ( from the primary power supply) to the Relay.
This will switch on the relay when the primary power supply switched on.

Step 3
Connect the primary power supply to Main board. And the spare power supply to the pheripherals….

And you are done…
