Power splits on PSUs

[K404]

Please could I ask a favour of everyone who uses a split/multiple +12V rail PSU?

If anyone knows HOW their +12V rails are split (ie...which connections are on which rail) Please post here with details. There are only a few combinations, but each PSU/PSU company approaches it a different way.

Split/multiple rail PSUs have uses without a doubt, but knowing in advance if all the connections a user needs are on the same rail would be useful. E.G..an SLI user with a 4-disk RAID would not want a PSU where the PCI-E connections are on the same rail as the SATA-power plugs maybe.

Thankyou very much,

Kenny

My 850w PCP&C 4x12v rails are split like this:

34a - CPU

17a - PCI-E x2

17a - for 6xsata and 10x molex

+12V2 - CPU Power 8pin connector (pin 7&8 - only if using full 8 pin, and not just 4 pin cpu connector), PCI-Express 6pins power

+12V3 - Main Board 24Pins

+12V4 - All Molex Peripherals (HDD and FDD)
