Title: Avalon 741 PS Post by: overcon on October 16, 2017, 07:55:04 PM I just put in my order for my first Avalon 741. I did some searching around the forums but wanted to confirm. If I get one of the 1200 Platinum Server PS's from Ebay that it will power the Miner fine?

At 0, there's a chance it'll try to pull more than 1200w. Title: Re: Avalon 741 PS Post by: overcon on October 16, 2017, 08:14:41 PM Yes, as long as you run it at -1 or -2 offset. At 0, there's a chance it'll try to pull more than 1200w. Does that slow the hash rate down some? Title: Re: Avalon 741 PS Post by: NotFuzzyWarm on October 16, 2017, 10:07:23 PM Not much. I usually see >7.2THs using -2
Do be aware that the HP supplies like you linked to are only rated for 900W when ran on 110V. Line in needs to be at least 208V for full 1200W rating.

this may be better if you are a 120 volt guy. use the code slush for 5% off I have an affiliate link which makes me a little money you can pm me to use it. or just go above and order without it. if you go above you pay the same and still get to use the 5% off code. if you order this I will show you how to wire the gear correctly |
