I've run PC PS's for quite some time now, no problems at all detected.
A problem is that they selldom actually give the stated 12V, but a silly way seem to work... (No, I wont tell, because it's not a way to do it that is "safe").
Anyhow, get a few not to old PS's and use the one giving the highest voltage.
And at 5A it's plenty of amperage to use.
Personally I'm going to abondon this set-up that I've used for some five years by now.
In favour of a power supply that will give each lane the same net effect available. Yes, a set amount of volts and a set amount of amperé.
What I hope to gain from this is an end to endless trouble with getting engines different profile to work together in an aimable and competetive way.
And a PS my fianchée built during classes seem to have the needed set-up...
More to come, for sure, on this...
