Title: Need help with my PSU for Antminer S3 Post by: RobbieRoor on December 22, 2015, 12:21:34 AM I recently purchased an s3 from a seller here on the site. I went out and purchased a Corsair CX850M PSU, but I cant seem to get the PSU to actually turn on? I have tried multiple outlets, all of them have worked for other things but not the PSU. I am doing something wrong or is it just a faulty PSU. I have the four PCI-E cables plugged into the top of the s3 and ran back to the PSU but nothing. Halp halp please!
