Hi forumers! Good day!

Hi, My Antminer S3+ arrived today :)

Sorry for my very BAD English!

Thanks advance

ANTMINER S3+ requires 355 Watt power, and your PSU is 550 Watts. That should be fine.

Your PSU is good. The VS550 delivers a guaranteed 550 Watts of continuous power.
So yes, you can run it 24/7 without overclocking.

And considering a 550 Watts of power supply versus 355 Watts required, I believe you should have no problem even with overclocking.
