Hey all I have a psu downstairs in my house I need to power up when my main pc turns on and shut down when it turns off Would the best way to achieve this be something like eBay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/291765128777 Then I just write a little script and have it load when windows starts and shut down when windows shuts down? Or would a standard 12v relay wired directly to the psu on the main computer be better? Or if anyone can think of a better way Thanks in advance Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk
Asuras solution will work, but wont give any isolation. 12/5V relay on appropriate rail is easiest solution, and will give you isolation (if you stick the cable in inappropriate place, you wont fry your main rig PSU/MB). The module from ebay will give your option to toggle the remote PSU easily without turning your PC or messing with wires/switches. You could also use something like this and do without any wires.
