Antminer D3 & PSU from 51Asic.com - Possible ?

[BossmanPL]

Hi, does anyone has been using (51Asic.com PSU 10x PCI-E 1600W) from AsicMinerMarket.com to power up Antminer D3 ?

I have situation that Bitmain PSU are delayed and on hand i got only above PSU, i am wondering if i can power up D3 with that.

Are there any differences D3 to L3+ in regards to power and cords wiring ?, those PSU initially was used to power L3+. But since D3 has additional PCI-E for board i am wondering if that PSU will be okay to power up D3.

Thanks in advance

I dont know about that specific power supply but bitmain only claims 1200w at the wall so a 1600w PSU will do the trick as long as it has enough PCIe plugs to run everything.

I see. But wiring connection used in PCI-E is always same ?, there are no different standards ?,
On D3 10'th PCI-E which is for logic board has same wiring connection like in other x9 PCI-E ?

I would say  yes  but you could buy a cheap meter and test each socket to be 12 volts

yes good point to test volts, are there any characteristics as to D3 power demands, ect... in more detail ?
thanks

Why not? As long as the output meets the specs and the connections are what you need. Power supplies are pretty much homogeneous and the important part is the amount of power coming out. I would even go a little over the top if I were you. If everything is the way ti should be then you could even cancel the order for the other supply and stick with the one you have.
