I'd say no it cannot for two reasons. 1) Each cube needs 2 PCIe power adapters. Your power supply only comes with 2. So you can only power 1 cube with this, not 2 cubes. You'd need 4 PCIe power adapters coming from the PSU. 2) Each cube uses 400W at baseline. Overclocking will require about 450. Your power supply is only 650. I purchased two Corsair AX850's refurb from local electronics store for $108 each. Both come with 4 PCIe cables so I am powering 4 cubes with 2 PSUs. Non-overclocked, getting about 32GHs each.

I'm not an electronics engineer so don't have tools to measure stuff, but i'd say it's being pretty efficient. I'd recommend, get the biggest 80+platinum you can afford.

Hello, how to use "Pools" button in the web panel?
the pools button swaps between the first pool and second pool you have specified. unless you are using a cloud proxy, your pool address will be your own network proxy in both instances. clicking pools, will switch from 1st pool to 2nd pool.

I've got 2 cubes running off a Corsair tx850, both work in high clock without issue. Then I have another cube running on a Corsair CX600, and on this one high clock seems to result in x's after a while, which is then resolved by power cycling.
Any thoughts?

How come my Cooler Master PSU (gxii-650w), when start the power up, the cube will have the 'click' sound and my PSU & cube are shutdown. need to redo the step few times then working.
any solution to fix?
my PSU is using the 'paper clip trick' to power up the PSU.
Another Question: How come i Overclock the cube to HIGH CLOCK, my router connection become lagging and my other computer can't surf internet already. i'm using the PSU(Cooler Master PSU (gxii-650w)).

I just purchased one of these units today. It has not even shipped yet but I am working on getting the right equipment to power it. I have a 10ghs blade running now with a power supply not used for a computer. I am using this http://www.ebay.com/itm/181284109670?var=480306974548 I am using the dc 12v 10a 120w unit. It is working great and dont look as funny as having a huge pc psu sitting there powering it. here is a pic: http://s11.postimg.org/r9iexpmwz/IMG_20140126_222504.jpgimage shareMy questing is can I use the same kinda of unit with 12v 30a 360w to power the cube? Is that over kill? Is it not enough? Thank you for your time and the info you have here

Do you have separate subnets for your PC vs the Cube?

The Subnet for my pc and the cube are same. My Comp is 192.168.1.2 and my Cube is 192.168.1.254, the router IP is 192.168.1.1

My cubes have been running okay. The five of them were running well, then one of the cubes started doing the reset problem. In addition to that, one of my cubes that has been running flawlessly just up and randomly died today. Everything was 00000000000000s but today I came home to all XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX. I unplugged it, reseated everything, and had 0000000000000000s again. However after being plugged in and hashing for about 2 minutes, it just went right back to XXXXXXXXXXXXX. I'm running http://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Professional-Series-Modular-HX850/dp/B0090I9W66/ for two cubes. It hasn't been a problem at all and that seems like a pretty high quality PSU. When the cube turns on, it clicks correctly, the two green lights are on, and the red light is on as well. What is my problem?

What do you mean "clicks correctly"? They're not supposed to click when coming on - if they do that, it's usually a sign that there's not enough power on the 12V rail. I had an 850 that couldn't run two cubes at once without clicking and resetting. I switched to a better 750 that could run two at once and no clicking or resetting. I've had seven different cubes, all ran at high clock, and none clicked unless power was not up to snuff.

And then if it clicks again it turns itself off.

Hi guys, I'm newbie struggling to setup my cube on my MacBook Pro, I decided to download MacMiner instead of the windows based software. I want the cube to run when my MacBook is offline ideally, but can't even get the thing running in the first instance. Are there any specific setup actions I should be doing that are different to Dogie's initial setup guide? Also when I try to change the IP address of the Cube on my router, the router doesn't see the Cube so I can't work out what the MAC code is to assign it it's own IP address?

Well nothing I could do with the PSU to get it hashing on High again. Switched out to a 1000W PSU for my single cube, and exactly the same issue. So now I'm wondering if it's network related. What can I check there? Unfortunately my router is the other end of my house so I'm running all my computers through a switch. I've now put the cube and the computer running the proxy on a separate switch, but it still goes through the original switch to reach the router. Still won't hash on High, but runs fine on Low. Edit: I've seen references to WiFi and Android devices causing issues. Is this a recognized problem, i.e. more than a couple of users? I can try disabling WiFi on the two Andorids that we have tonight and see if that helps, but is there an explanation behind why this might be an issue? If it is the cause then I'd have to say that it's somthing about the traffic from the Android which I may be able to eliminate with a firewall or separate routed network. Thoughts? Edit #2: No dice with switching off the Android WiFi. No luck using BFGMiner, (which is slower than Slush's proxy anyway). Someone tried a different switch, so I'll look at replacing the Linksys with a Netgear and seeing if that helps. I might still set up a second network behind another router to segment the traffic, although it will still all go through the same DSL router in the end. Tried to setup proxy on a Linux machine, but it's missing the stratum module, so I need to go look in to that some more. All very frustrating.
