Interesting. This looks similar in specs and form to some other 1600W PSUs showing up out of china like the Canaan Sorcerer and the DragonMint and I've noticed some other similar ones around. I guess they have a return policy so maybe I'll try it and see if it powers some GPUs or a 741 for a while.

It definitely looks like a rebadged or a knock off Sorcerer PSU.  I ordered it so we'll see.  It's definitely 240v only.  I'm in the process of installing a 240v receptacle in my garage.

Easier way to get quieter PSU with high output is to think like a RAID...  Buy 3x750W PSU's, each powers one board plus one also powers the controller.  You'll be closer to the sweet spot efficiency wise, and each PSU will run cooler and need less fan for less noise.  That's why I run 2x750W thermaltake's on my R4.  Quiet as quiet can be for mining, USB sticks notwithstanding!

I don't believe in superstition because it's bad luck: 13thF1oor6CAwyzyxXPNnRvu3nhhYeqZdc
These aren't the Droids you're looking for: S5 & S7 (Sold), R4B2, R4B4 (RIP), 2x S9 obsolete, 2xS15-28, S17-56, S17-70

Good to know you have good luck with thermaltakes. Which model do you use? What is the rated efficiency? If you believe the specs on this one it looks tough to beat for price and efficiency though. Im not particularly concerned about noise at this point. That ship has sailed  Smiley
