Title: AntMiner S3 PSU question Post by: JennaK on August 08, 2014, 11:03:26 PM Hello!
I'm going to have two antminer s3s I will never upgrade and I just want a PSU that can handle both Antminer's overclocked. I heard my EVGA 500W 80 PLUS psu won't work as the 2 pci-e cables are daisy chained? I can't even see if they are or not. I may return that PSU and try to get either.. EVGA 1000W or EVGA 1300W The cheaper the better. I was also thinking of getting two CX600 or CX750 Please help Title: Re: AntMiner S3 PSU question Post by: daddyfatsax on August 08, 2014, 11:17:18 PM EVGA 1000 W for 2 or the 1300 W for 3.

I can't over clock 3 antminers s3 with the evga 1300 can I?

I can't over clock 3 antminers s3 with the evga 1300 can I? you can oc 3 s3's i did 3 s-1's pulled 1215 watts for 45 days in a row 24/7 i then moved them and down clocked them Title: Re: AntMiner S3 PSU question Post by: cassimares on August 09, 2014, 11:58:03 AM I'm thinking the 1000w evga as I'm never going to have 3 AntMiners and if I do I'd want them all to be over clocked.
