Just got this fresh from RMA and it is a brand new unit. All cables are included + a free Bitmain PSU jumper.

Asking $125 shipped via priority in the USA.

I will add a picture later this evening.

Already the lowest price by $40 here on forums. I am open to offers on this beast of a PSU.

This is so tempting, but then I read some of the reviews on amazon and it didn't leave me a warm and fuzzy, but still sounds like a great deal.

i used to have this psu... theres nothing wrong with it, its a pretty standard one and runs well. it died however, when i tried to plug in a new miner while it was on.. so obviously quite dumb on my part, but it was toast after that... i had someone inspect it, and the cost to repair was not really worth it

if your not a dumbass like myself theres no good reason not to use this psu for miners.. i dont know if i'd trust it to run my pc tho

I'll agree with tarzan2 they are good psu's but unlike better manufacturers if you hook them up wrong or over exceed power requirements they can shut down.  I currently have one and was able to resurrect mine.  Again for $125 that's a steal for a solid 1600w psu.

They are solid, but with 6 rails you need to pay attention to how it is hooked up. I bought 20 of these for GPU mining after doing a lot of research. A couple of rails have multiple PCi-e so keep that in mind and split the load. The PSU does not show you what rails are what so this diagram is needed.

Yeah $125 shipped priority is the best deal on the forums! Also this is my last LEPA left since I recently sold off my farm  :-\

the main point - you should to make a cpu-8pin(v2-line)-to-pci-e power adapter to prevent v3/v4/v5/v6 line overload.

Well when I ran GPU from it I split the loads by using some of the molex to make pci-e....worked like a champ.
