Please help me, my Antminer is always shutting down after like 2-3 minutes. after that i cant access the website. :(
I follow the Antminer S3+ Manual on Bitmain's website.
Is it defective?

Anyone, please?

Did the PSU only supplying S3+  or it's supplying other devices?

Hi!!!!!
Nope. It only supplying the S3+

Thank you very much for your reply!

Did the PSU shutdown too?
If yes, maybe you need to put some load on +5V rail. Try to find some devices that use +5V supply like old cdrom and plug it to your PSU.

Yep, my PSU will shutdown. wait, im gonna find my old CD-ROM.

Thank you again very much!
God Bless!!!!!

Haha, i want to reply that you don't need the sata cable  :D

Nice, gratz dude. Happy mining  ;D

Thank you very much, i will unplug the sata now.
By the way, what is the best pool for the Antminer S3+?

Sorry dude, i can't answer that since i don't own Antminer S3+  :D

Ohhhh, its ok.
By the way is it normal that the wire turns warm?

Use 1 plug per connection. There is 4 pciex power plug right, so use 4 connection.

do you mean the 6pin? my PSU have 2 6pin only.

Yes. The two 6 pin already used on S3+ ?
Theoretical, two 6 pin is already enough.

But the warm wires are normal?
can i put like 2 fans to cool down the wires?

It's shouldn't warm in my opinion.
Did all 6 pin warm or only one 6 pin? If the 2 6pin had same warm temperature then, the connection is fine.
Just make sure it don't move to hot  :)

Thank you very much!
God Bless!!!!!

No wonder the wire getting warm.
I just find out that corsair VS550 only had one 6 pin from PSU. You need at least 2 separate connection from PSU.

Sorry dude, i didn't check the 6 pin availability. From power aspect, VS550 can work. But you need at least 2 6pin from psu, not 2 6pin on one wire.

It's like this right? This count as one, not two  :)

Hi!

Is it not recommended?
It survive 1 night non-stop :)
should i turn off the miner?

Thanks for your reply!
God Bless!!!!!

Yes, not recommended for long run. But i guess not problem until your Corsair CX750M arrive.
Just monitor the wire temperature not to hot  :)

Im cooling the wires using 4 120mm fans  :D
and now its like normal. :)

Thanks Zich for your help :3   ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
God Bless!!!!!

Nice, fan cooling is good idea.
Or you can find EPS to 6pin converter (http://www.amazon.com/Cable-CB-E8-P68F-Connector-sleeved-length-connector/dp/B005H3KH9E)

nope i dont need that anymore, i have a fan that powered by a 1 molex connector that can be series each other  ;)  :)

Thanks!  :-*

God Bless!!!!!

You are welcome dude. Just monitor the temperature.
Happy mining  :)
