You cant add more than 1 PSU in a computer. I don't know where you heard this from but it's incorrect. You simply have to switch out your 1 old PSU and put in a new powerful PSU that has enough power to supply your parts.

[sixsamuraisoldier]

[RyanTH98]

oh yeah....
and my mom designs graphics and i have to do my homewok...

You only need one of these do do all of that.....
ONE GTX 780 can already run crysis 3 on ultra on a 2560X1440. I don't think you need more than one.....

...... when the stuff gets old your just gonna replace them anyway..... technology is always advancing soon that stuff is gonna get out dated and your gonna have to trash them. And besides there isnt really a point to getting 4 if you only need one.

You can have more than PSU in a PC, there are supplementary GPU PSU's and if you have a look on google you can find switcher boxes that allow two or more PSU's to be started at the same time so they can all run in the same PC at the same time.

 

[sixsamuraisoldier]

so, will i need a double circuit?
if so, how to get one?
i need about 2360 watts out of the wall

I am not sure about add2psu but I have used connectpsu (http://connectpsu.com/shop/psu-adapter/) which works like an adapter. You plug the hard disk power cable on the one side and the power connector of the second psu on the other side.
