Could someone please help me!!!!

I bought this power supply http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00H33SFJU/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (EVGA 500W 80 PLUS Certified)
To power (1) Antminer S3 and possibly overclock it.

I've been hearing that the PCI-E connections are daisy chained and It can't handle the antminer.. could someone please confirm this?

I want to buy another Antminer s3... Should I

A) Buy another 500-600W PSU?

B) Return the EVGA 500W and buy a EVGA 1000W G2?

Please help me as I have no idea wtf is going on.

My 6 Batch 5s all have that same firmware. DOn't know why they don't put it on their website. I'd like to flash it to by Batch 1s.

Can't you just backup the firmware from the B5 and restore it on a B1.
 
I'm Curious to see if it would help them, like many i have a unit that won't break the long term avg over ~400Gh
no matter what i tried, i even took the think all apart and replace the termal paste on the back and front  of the boards.
Put heat sink on the dc-dc chip and also on the R7 Chips. still didn't help.

Let us know.

Pretty big plans for a poor student girl without money...

Free electricity in a dorm apparently.

What I don't get is what's the point to keep parading the forums with a bright red scammer flag... is it like a badge of honor or something.
