Title: Question for PSU for 4x 280x
Post by: vargoneti on January 20, 2014, 12:28:16 PM
hi ,

is it possible to run 4 x 280x on a  Corsair AX1200i Professional Platinum Series paired with a Asrock extreme9 , a ssd drive and a AMD sempron 145 ? it is extremly hard to find a PSU that is on stock here in my country , this being the only one that i can get atm.

Thanks !

I would say no, but it is close.  I am running three 280x on a 1050w at high settings and stock voltage.  With slower hashing and more efficiency, you might be able to squeeze under the 1200, but I don't like to risk equipment failure by cutting it close on the electricity.  Besides, the PSUs have amongst the slowest depreciation of all of the mining hardware, so they are good things to take care of.
