Is there any way to power 4 of these with a single 1600W Gold/Platinum PSU, or am I just asking for a fire hazard? What PSU is everyone using for 2-4?
In my opinion it's always better to have two smaller PSUs than one big, because even if everything will work great, you still have some chance that a PSU will break, and if it does, your second PSU will be still powering two boards. Also you should expect, that after some time a PSU that is running on full load will start to supply less power. |

Yay ! The latest batch of Antminers come with 6 Pin PCIE female slots provided and wired up !!!  sorry i havent really looked at a power supply connectors for a while, does that mean any standard power supply will have the right wire i can just plug directly into the antminer? thanks |

There's not many options past 1600W anyways, doesn't seem to be worth the trouble. |

Yes. These plugs mean they easily connect to any modern PSU. The first few batches of Antminers required us to roll-our-own power connections. Dogie has a great thread on setting up Antminers here : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=355387.0 |

My 2 miners are running thanks to sushi who had a long teamviewer session with me to fix my problem. During this buy hes been nothing but amazing, communacation with the guy couldnt be any better.
If you appreciate how he is doing this group buy do what I did and sent him a little something , he deserves it.

+1 I am going to concur with that. So far SUSHI has been extremely helpful. I have ordered and received 5 units and of this one unit had a faulty board, which I am now working with SUSHI to get it replaced. He has been nothing but helpful and responsive so far. I just hope he does not "burn" himself out  |
