no, notably because why would you need such a thing? not even servers use two mobos in one machine, unless we start talking racks.

How so? You could get 120-160w mini itx power supplies from China/HK/Taiwan on ebay for $21 each.

Honestly, I wouldn't want 2 Chinese PSUs running 24/7 in my house...

That's because everything is made in China.

Chinese products aren't bad..

Unfortunately I am pretty sure you will not find a PSU that supports two 24 pin mobo connectors. You would also need two 8 pin connectors, which even now a lot of PSU's don't come with. I know on my AMD boards, they each require two 8 pin connectors, so would need 4 of them, if similar like that. I think you will need to look at your options as you will most likely need to get two PSU units.

2 modest psu's would be cheaper and safer than any single unit option. I'm struggling to imagine though how there is room for 2 boards yet not enough for 2 psu's i'm sure I have seen a similar topic before and the resounding response was the same.
