Title: Secured my first S3, getting yet another one shortly.
Post by: jmintuck02 on October 03, 2015, 12:45:53 AM
Can't wait. Now for some money to come in to get the power supply and the connector cord. Now I saw where I insert an ethernet cable in

and I have an ethernet cable plugged into the S3 now. Should I go ahead and get the WiFi card now or get it next month when I can get two of them and plug the ethernet cord into my computer's Ethernet plug for now before everything else gets here.

Also looking for the adapter for the power supply. I know to get an ATX power supply for the current one before I pick up the next power supply for the other one coming later.

Congratz I think

Dont buy wifi adapters you will lose some hash rate stay hardwired. Also it should be plugged into your router not your computer. Go with a server PSU instead of a computer power supply way cheaper and just as easy to setup.

Here is one for 28 bucks http://www.amazon.com/HP-441830-001-POWESUPPLY-1200W-12V/dp/B002S4LUTQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1443833523&sr=8-1&keywords=1200+watt+server+power+supply&refinements=p_n_condition-type%3A6461718011 (http://www.amazon.com/HP-441830-001-POWESUPPLY-1200W-12V/dp/B002S4LUTQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1443833523&sr=8-1&keywords=1200+watt+server+power+supply&refinements=p_n_condition-type%3A6461718011)

I really feel this is also in the wrong section and or just a random post for your signature campaign.

Thank you for pointing me out to better power supply for a better price than earlier. THANK YOU!

Just take apart an old laptop that you are no longer using and use the wifi antennas (there should be 2) on the S3.

You can use any laptop as long as it has wifi.
