NO ! NO ! NO ! NO !!! Please know exactly what you're doing before bricking your miner. You need either a 1600W power supply on a 220V circuit or a 2000W+ power supply on a 110V to run the miner. You can theoretically power each board witt a single 600W P/S that has 3 PCIE 6 pin connectors, but them you'll need 4 power supplies (for 3 hashing boards + one for controller) no matter what you do , you can not connect multiple different power supplies to same board ! Preferably , you should run on a 208/220/240V circuit. unless you know what you're doing, you may also have the risk of blowing your electrical circuits as well as getting your house on fire !! you must be careful and know what youre doing !  ? I don't have a 220 volt... Why wouldn't 1 power supply APW3++ (1200 watts) with 3 pins-->1st board, 3 pins--> 2nd board, and 1 --> control + a second psu plugged into the same wall outlet or another at 120 volts with 600 watts do 3 pins--> 3rd board?? |

I dont see a problem with that, just make sure you use the same psu for each board |

Do I use both or do I plug it into another outlet with 2 plug options 5 feet away along with the first? |

You need a dedicated line with the correct gauge wire. This is a lot of wattage to be pulling through an unknown wire size. You can easily start a fire. |

I'm using 3 power supplies to power a A3 using 120v power. The miner takes almost 1500 watts using a watt meter.

Plus how do I know I have different circuits? |

plug some appliance like a hair dryer or hair clipper into each outlet
and turn them on.
now go flip your breakers one by one if they are not labled until one or both appliances turn off
if both turn off on the same breaker you know they are on the same circuit.
also rember household 110 or 120v are not rates for CONTINUOUS draw of 1500 watts, you should try to split the 1500 watts across two circuits, which should be easy for you anyways using dual power supplies

Originally, UPS tracking had a scheduled delivery date as 1/25 (I am in US). Now it got changed to "Scheduled delivery information is not available at this time. Please check back later."  Last activity was the below. I guess this might be the case for many here? Shenzhen, China 01/24/2018 2:13 P.M. Pkg shipped; delivery being scheduled |

You'll get an SMS with URL to pay for import duties (400-something euro). After that 4 to 5 days to your front door. |

Vosk did a Youtube video on his that he received yesterday and said $480USD. I'm curious to see a daily breakdown of profit over the next week or two. |
Ok, I want you to walk back in there and very calmly, very politely tell the risk assessors to fuck off! -Mark Baum

Calculators are just general yardsticks but the calculators are showing around $380.00 PD current. Should be much less by sundown.... |
