http://www.sentey.com/en/erp-750-watts Must be POS PSU ::) Or it may need a fan or something on one of the other 4 pin connectors or 5 volt/3 volt lines to work ???

Buy a gold or platinum seasonic power supply instead. Title: Re: sentey ERP 750 PS OVERLOAD WITH S1 ANTMINER? Post by: old nice guy on July 24, 2014, 03:12:26 AM well i have two XPLUS 625W sentey working more than 60 days perfect with S1 on overlock, maybe it has to do with PCIE 6+2 PIN CONECTORS THEY COME WITH 2 CONECTORS ON EACH LINE , IN OTHER WORDS FOR CONECTORS TOTAL? ???

Post by: old nice guy on August 02, 2014, 08:44:18 PM Well i guess i solved my problem with these ERP 750 WATT? , WELL IT TURNS OUT WE SENT AN EMAIL TO SENTEY AND THEY ARE SENDING US 6 UNITS OF A different model MBP750-HS becuase they claim thier web page is not explicit enough and might lead to some misunderstanding, :D bottom line- these socalled ERP 750 WATT units are only capable of 150 watt per line maximum 300 watt total , we consumers cannot read specifications or maybe i just passed thru life gaizing at the stars ::)

Post by: MrTeal on August 02, 2014, 10:40:10 PM It's a single rail, so while they might rate each cable at 150W that will not be the cause of it shutting down. Much more likely is that since it's an old crappy group regulated design, when you put a big draw on the 12V rail with no draw on the 5V rail both rails go out of voltage spec and the PSU shuts down.
I have a Corsair VX450w that's a great little supply and was highly rated in the budget segment in its day, but it does the same thing. It's one of the issues of a lot of cheaper 400-700W Bronze and lower PSUs. |
