Using a PSU to power up a computer and 1 Antminer S1

[valkir]

Hi guys

I got a small rig with 2 HD 6850 and I just receive my Antminer S1.

I will like to know if I can power up de S1 while the PSU is plug to a motherboard?

I will let 1 cards on the computer and power up the S1 with the otehr pcie cable.

Is it possbile?

Thank

Apart from needing two PCI-E cables for the S1, there's no reason why you can't do what you're proposing, assuming your PSU can manage to power both.
