Title: Zeusminer thunder x 3 WTF? Post by: dyland on July 10, 2014, 02:45:10 AM ok so I got my Thunder X3 today direct from zeusminer. I was about to rig the power up and noticed that the power hook ups are male inside the unit. Oh did I mention that they were inside the unit? Totally annoying to deal with besides the fact that they are male! What PSU MANUFACTURES FEMALE OUT??? I don't get it... Anyway no USB either. But rattling around inside was a Pi.
Anyone else have this issue? I guess I have to try and find a female to female bridge for this now, well four of them that is...WTF Zeus? Title: Re: Zeusminer thunder x 3 WTF?

Google thunder x 3 male PSU Anyway, it appears the quick fix is to hook up directly to the chassis of the PSU from the miner. I imagine I can do this with two of the below, which I have on hand, but I have to open it up and then take the LEPA 1200 gold I was going to use for this and switch it out with my two black widows' corsair rm 750s. Don't suppose you could help confirm if that would work, or if I should be wary of any polarity issues? http://www.corsair.com/se-fi/rm-series-rm750-80-plus-gold-certified-power-supply Title: Re: Zeusminer thunder x 3 WTF?
