    Combine 12V rail on DPS 750CB-A

    Hi. Found this PSU from HP XW9300. Along with its case. I plan to put my 6700k and GA-Z170X-Designare into it's case.. and swap 12V-C rail pin to 12V-CPU_0 and 12V-CPU_1. 12V-C 12.5A would be CPU rail, and 12V-CPU_0 and 12V-CPU_1 12.6A as 6+2 pin x 2 repectedly. Hopes it's enough to power my Windforce R9 290.

    This is the specs of said PSU


    As you can see 12VCPU-0 and 12VCPU-1 got 25.2Amp Combined while 12V-C got only 12.5Amp.

    My question is how can I Draw more amp onto 12V-C without trip OCP in said FakeRail.. (I called it Fake Rail because it is not quitely Seperate rail lol) I need 20Amp minimum the more the better (Damn those single 6 pin power VGA)

    Total combined power of 12V is 55 amp. Wich is quite Impresive for old PSU.



    The source of 12V Is the one that has 8 parallel solder joint near R155, R158, R159.

    12v-C is besides R945

    12vCPU-1 is below R157

    12vCPU-0 is the one that has C162 and R156

    Any pointer will help. Thank you.

    Take a look at Datasheets of some Protection ICs.
    There are some Resistors you need to change - but not the Shunt Resistors. That's also the worst thing to do, due to the enormous heat capacity of the PCB in that area - you want to avoid soldering in that area at all cost!

      I plan to make heatsink for resistor that below R159. Is that help? And wich resistor that I need to change?

        Arent those joints of current shunts?

            I am still not sure, better take an image of the upper side as well.

                This is upside section of said psu. The white cable is the ones that I want to combine. Each is 12.6 amps.
