Working with 2 systems one case

[gelolololo]

Hi I'm new here. I dont know where to put this post but here it goes.

 

I bought a Phanteks Enthoo 719 case which had a dual system mounts foe Atx and itx. The problem is, here in my country (Philippines) doesnt have any listings or sellers for a power splitter or the Revolt X 1000/1200w. Browsing other source's like ebay, newegg, and amazon. The power supply costs are doubled, even with the power splitter (and also that rma/doa issues). So I'm looking for other alternative options.

 

Is it safe to have splitters on 24 pin cables or cpu cables? Or better , does anyone had tried mounting a SFX power supply on the 120mm areas?

Just get 2 psu's? It has the space for 2 psu's so don't use a splitter just get a psu for each build.

Phanteks's page for the 719 makes this sort of confusing, but I don't think it supports dual systems with dual PSU's. It supports either dual systems using one of their Revolt PSU's that have cabling for two systems at once, or it supports one system with two PSU's for... reasons.

Yes that's what i wanted to do. I dont want to buy a corsair or thermaltake's dual system case as it is more expensive. Since the Phanteks 719 are spacey enough. I also just wanted to know if someone modded the case tray/120mm fan areas by screwing or having a special bracket of some sort to the SFX or TFX

Kinda suck that they only let you prefer buying the revolt x and it is always out of stock nowadays. And with reviews of frying their systems. Single PSU per system is much safer than that.

The case literally has space for 2 psu's like it has the mounting holes for it in the back. You don't need to do anything to it for them to fit.
