So do you think a single 1200 will work for these units. I also plan on adding a knob that I can control the fan manually. Let me know what you think I already have a design that I might try to create tomorrow.

I do not think a single 1200 would work for this, just on power alone.  Then there's the complication of both sides needing the 24-pin PSU connector (though you could get a splitter for that).  I'm thinking a good, solid 1350 could do it.  But these are just guesses.  If you're like me and have a MicroCenter in the area, they have a great return policy both for unneeded and nonworking results.  So far I've given them back 2 CoolMax 1000ZUs and 2 SolidGear 750 Neutrons.  Wink

I was thinking that you just need a splitter. To run so you can power the 2 blades. Would just need one side. The signals are done by the avalon control unit. If there is enough juice to go around you would just use that. Split the lines that is powering the two blades. That's all you really need right? What does the CPU pins really do for the miner other then send it power?
