The fans coming on for a sec and the green light on the PSU indicate it's not the PSU. If you had a short, the light on the PSU would go out, this is a new one but no fans would mean problem even if you got it running as it would overheat.Title: Re: Butterly bitforce asics went down Post by: ManeBjorn on February 24, 2014, 01:46:40 AM When that happened to my Jalapeno it was just the PSU.

The 6-pin PCIe lead should fit.
Title: Re: Butterly bitforce asics went down Post by: ayayay on February 24, 2014, 01:59:52 AM how many watts do I need
Title: Re: Butterly bitforce asics went down Post by: Unacceptable on February 24, 2014, 02:29:15 AM how many watts do I need 25-30GH uses about 130-150 watts,use a decent 500 watt PSU with at least one 6pin vid card connector ;) Same as most low-middle range vid cards. Don't use the dual 4pin molex to 6pin adapters,thos 4pin molex things may not handle the wattage very well,IE=MAY overheat & catch fire :o |
