It's OK puting 2-3 PC SMPS in series? Someone tried that? Any educated guess?
 
If it's got a chassis ground, it's probably not such a hot idea (Might actually be a smoking idea - but you'll want a fire extinguisher handy). Hooking together "2 pin" power supplies might work, but I can think of all sorts of grief that might happen.

It's a post on this site https://www.electro-tech-online.com/threads/smps-request.23937/
But I'm curious about PC PS. I can get some 200W+ PS for under 5$/piece
