Hi all,
Since we have received word that the Corsair HX850 is not recommend for use on the knc miner, can those who are currently hashing away with a knc miner that have not had any issues with blown caps post which psu they are using?
I think this would be helpful for those who are still searching for the right psu to use as this would certainly be reassuring knowing that someone else is successfully using a certain model/brand.

Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

I went with Coolermaster V850....I saw that was the product line they were using and decided to go with what they were doing.
Seems like a good decision....I think after googling Corsair problems that you guys using anything from them with a KNCMiner are crazy.

I WAS using an HX850 but luckily enough I had a TX850 on my gaming rig that I'm now using on my Jupiter.

What is wrong with the Corsair HX850? I contacted the KnCMiner support team, they told me I can use that.

So can this model power 2 Jupiter? In theory yes but I think you'll want (or need) more headroom in practice. I wouldn't go with less than 850 for each Jupiter.

I have a Corsair AX860 waiting for my Mercury. It's made by Flextronics so I'll feel safe using it.
I have always thought that the AX860 was made by Seasonic and the AX860i by Flextronics.

I also have this waiting (also got it from amazon) *bonus* paid for it with bitcoin via Gyft Does anyone know or have link explaining what was the problem with that Corsair? Might it be a problem that also affects other power supplies?

Hopefully the HX850 and the AX860 are completely different PSUs. I might not take my chances and just return mine and upgrade to the 860i. DAMN!
