There's already a topic asking that kind of question in this section.

Some Lian Li case allow you to put in two PSU(s) and it also include a special cable to allow you start up 2 PSU at the same time.

I think the 2nd PSU is needed for powering the high end (very power demanding) graphic card, extra hard disk and etc ...

I couldn't think any suitable keyword to use for this matter, not in this board at least. Google may showed a result with multiple keywords instead. Give me a hint or suggestion for the best keyword.

lian li also package a dual psu on molex or something when u purchase it...........

btw dual PSU was not that useful unless u plan to use one of them for bling bling purpose....... otherwise does make much sense since 2 good PSU cause u arm and legs as 1 big good 1 too............

Looks like a way to remove SPOF (single point of failure) having two PSU's.

same here....

i really wish there was a case with a removable mobo tray and 120mm fan.... the only ones ive found to my liking would be the Akasa Eclipse and the Chenbro Gaming Bomb II. but both are expensive and cant get here.

i wish lianli would make a case like the A10 WITHOUT doors.. and the PSU placements at the top. having them at the bottom would be a cable management nightmare...especially if u have cables like the 20/24 pin, 4/8 pin ATX cables in the centre of the mobo or the top left even.

Dual PSUs make perfect sense actually. It's for the ppl who already have a good 500 or 600W PSU. Then decide to add SLi or more power hungry components which need more juice so all they need is buy another good 400W PSU is enuf. A good solid 400W will cost oni about rm200-300. If u were to buy a 1000W PSU it'll cost 1 arm n leg. Not to mention u will then haf a very good 500-600W PSU sitting in the cupboard doing nothing then.
