Power supply for 6x R9 390

[querulous]

Hey man, Ive just order 2 antec HCP 1000W platinum for a similar rig. Good thing is you can connect these two together without a psu adapter. They do 850, 1000 and 1300s

Do you mean there is built in configuration for that specific power supply unit? That is quite handy for miners.

From my mining experience, a 290 (and a 390) can easily push 250w+ if you're @stock volts/clocks.

Put 6 of them into a rig with minimal voltage / clock tuning and you'll be looking at a 1500w pull real fast.

The 2x Antec HCP 1000w suggestion is a good one.  I went with Silverstone 1500w units, which performed very well given the environment.

at it's price not worth it. used server PSU 2.45Kw is 50USD (or less) + cables is much better deal

Yes. Can supply 14 x AMD RX 480 .

No, it can't. Only 9.

For the server PSU do you need a 220v outlet?

Also everyone, if I use two PSUs do I have to connect them together?

[Subw]

Usually yes, they are 230V but some are multirange 120-230V.

You need to connect only grounds. But they already are connected via mains ground.
