@dogie so it's monday in cn correct? and they were working on our orders all weekend so maybe we will get a shipping update very late tonight or very very early tomm (monday)  morning? :D:D

[dsheaffer]

Syscooling asked me to take more pictures at different angles of the pump that failed.  I have sent them four and am posting the most relevant one (in my opinion) for the forum. To be clear the leak is more like it is "weeping" between the plates that make up the body of the pump.

As I said, they will ship orders in order order throughout the next week.

Copy and paste your order number in track by reference at www.ups.com, ordered with cooling kit.

dang thats crazy. i ordered 3 days ahead of you (17th) and only my label has been created.

wait when you said ready for pickup you mean as in has been delivered or ups is about to pick it up and ship it?

what country are you rec. in?

@ dogie. would a 1600w psu cover a c-1 and two s3's or is it just cutting it too close?
Thanks

Should be fine, C1s are more around 800W rather than 1000W. How many PCI-Es does it have, and on how many cable strands?

hey i was looking at this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817159158 16x pcis... should only need 8 to run 1x c1 and 2x s3's

this will essentially be the max load setup on a common 15w circut that you would be able to setup easily.

I just want to verify with you dogie.

c-1 = 800 watts

s3 = 340 watts x2 = 680 watts

800w + 680w = 1480 watts..

so only a mere 120watts leftover will cover and surges etc etc?

what about a 1500watt psu? or is that cutting it way to close?

also 1600w/120v = 13.3amps. will this be fine on a 15w standard breaker?

but also additional each s3 runs @340watts so x2 = 680 + 800 w for c1 = 1480w my psu will be drawing divide by 120v thats 12.3 amps... is this correct? Or does a 1600w psu always draw max amps even if it has nothing hooked up? Or is what you connect directly proportion to the draw on the circut? Thanks

update just got my bitmain ship email at 230 am pst 11/24

Only EVGA Supernova G2 1600W will be able to do it.

Do not buy it. You  need single rail PSU.

[ChineseSavior]

shit i already ordered it

edit

thankfully i was able to cancel before they billed my card (at least it appears so :/ ) looks like ill be going with sticking with the raid max series.

rm1k for this c1 and rm1200 for 3 s3's

or will the rm 850 be enough for the c1? with only having 50 more watts?

[tarmi]

@ChineseSavior

you need a supply that can deliver 70 A on 12 V, so that psu is good.


...

I received 2 tracking numbers from bitmain, I guess the second number and package is the cooling solution?

850 is cutting it to close with cooling gear.  I would go with the rm 1000 instead of the rm 850.

Update:  Syscooling sent an email asking if the pump was running or not.  I explained that it does run for approximately 2 minutes and then stops.  I believe the cause is the leak creating a short.  It will only run again after it has been turned off for a number of hours and it will only run for a few minutes at a time.

I ordered last night at 4 pm Mountain time and have my UPS tracking number this morning.  Crazy fast.

That's fast!  I was happy that the C1 batch 2 w/cooling kit I ordered late on the 21st was shipped.  If Bitmain ships in 'order' order, they must have busted some serious butt getting these things out...

Yeah I ordered the full cooling kit too.  But there seem to have been complaints about some parts being shoddy.

The kits were only like $50. So they are pretty cheap components.

i beilieve either dogie or bitmain or both had said that the harness is no longer an issue and to basically not be scared about just plugging it in. When i asked what to look for to make sure it was okay i was told not to worry.

so my delivery day is wed and im stoked.
