Is double PSU ok

[RevoDSG]

Hello,can I connect double PSU?Actually I have GTS 250 GPU and 24A +12v PSU.As it wanted 32A +12v so think I should connect one more PSU.Is it alright?

What type of computer do you have?

Usually you only connect one PSU. I would get at least a 600W PSU

It won't work, not in the proper way, unless you decide to modify the PSUs.

For a GTS 250, all you'll really need is around 400W or so, 500W to make sure.

Yes you can, but it would looks bad...
Just get a single quality PSU with minimum 500W.
Don't cheap out on PSU, it's the most important thing on your system...

Honestly, but the thing in there and turn it on. If it runs, it runs.

If you really want to do this then just buy a modular psu that let's you detatch the motherboard connectors or to disable them somehow. I don't think most PSUs start unless they're plugged into the motherboard.

As others have said, you should just get a good quality PSU instead of two crap ones. But you can do dual psu's with this http://www.frozencpu.com/products/5637/cpa-167/Lian_Li_Dual_Power_Supply_Adapter_Cable.html

Actually I am having BSOD when playing games some times 20-30min & sometimes for 3-4hours.So one says that it is happening b'coz of ur SMPS.It could not give the card(GTS 250),the right power!Is it true?do I need minimum of 500w and 32A(+12v)capable PSU to resolve it?

Was this graphic card an upgrade? If so, did you completely remove your old GTS 250 drivers with Driver Sweeper or a similar program before installing newer GTS 250 drivers?
