I will be reviewing a new server psu+ breakout board. Results and photos

[philipma1957]

Thank you philipma1957 for this great review.

I hope you make a review for 2880 server PSU, with some guide on how to soldering the PCI to the PSU with out the need for breakout board if this available.

Thank you.

I don't have 240 volt setup in house to do one of those psu's
I also think you really need that breakout board.

I will say this intel 1000/120 1200/240 server unit is really nice.

I am waiting for pete to post a link for a kit with the breakout board the psu and some pcie wires.

It appears to be perfect psu for the sp20e . This one is the platinum rated one. and at the numbers it is doing it appears to be a platinum psu.

it gives me 775 watts at 120 volts -----------------------------------

my  1200 watt plat seasonic gives me  758 watts  at 120 volts--  this is under .4 kwatts a day or at 10 cents it is 4 cents a day difference in power.

 the sp20e is doing 1327 gh  and 758 watts = 0.571213  watts a gh with the platinum 1200 watts seasonic

and intel was doing 1348  and 775 watts      = 0.574925  watts a gh with the platinum 1000-1200 watts server intel.

Based on this testing I recommend the intel server psu and break out board if the price is good. it will push a sp20e to 1350gh very easy and give nice  watts per gh basically = to the watts per gh the seasonic 1200 plat does.    plus it is queiter then the hp 850 was.

Yes it is within specs. of a platinum rating.  Thanks for doing this.... next up is the setup of the pi as a controller and how to log into it from away.
If you are up to it that is.

doing the new rasp pi  for the avalon 4.1's will be for later in the week.

 remote logging and wi fi  are both possible in theory.  but that is a future review.



Hey pete what is the link for the intel server psu and the breakout board with some pcie cords.  they are a very nice kit!

Ok so smaller and a lot cheaper but louder.
Good for server room or not in livingroom miner.

the intel is not that loud the dell and hp are pretty loud.  but actually the intel he shipped to me is the first server psu I would consider using  in my home.

Down the road after all my testing I will keep it and use it.

It is pretty quiet and  it does do plat numbers.

[valkir]

Since I know you had a lot of miners.
Could you tell me if the intel is louder than a SP20 or more like a Avalon4.1?

That will give me a idea.

Thanks

now it is just the psu.  It matches closer to the sp20 then the avalon 4.1

Nice to hear.  They are very nice for running a sp20 at about 1250gh.

I sent a pm about the plat intel kit.

[philipma1957]

Now  as a reminder I was given my kits to run the review so my cost was 0.00  for the dell the hp the intel.
I sold off the dell and the hp to go with 2 sp20e's.
I kept the Intel and order more wires for it since I gave the test wires with the sale.


Having had both of these kits in my home and 20 or 30 other psu's in my home.

The intel kit is better quality and is more efficient.  The better Quality is at a higher price.


The hp kit at 55 bucks is a screaming good deal,  I was able to get it to do over 850 watts on a 120 volt line. I do not of any better psu for this price point and wattage.

If you run it on 120 volt and draw 700 watts (think s-5)  it won't be very loud and  it is  a really nice psu .
It can also run an under clocked sp20 very well.

The kit has:

4   pcie cables
1   psu
1   breakout board
1   14 gauge power cord

At pete's price point of 54.76 for a kit it is a good deal

   Yeah I was not sure about the shipping ,but with free shipping and paypal  payments available the HP is really good for more then one application of miner.

It did more then 850 watts with a 120volt power source.

 It did 700 watts quietly (relative say 53db and not  a vicious sounding pitch).
