Hi guys why is there still quibbery going on? Mine will be arriving in the morning so If everybody likes I'll post pictures of how they are..

BUT i need to know right now if I should grab 1000W or 1200W supplies...   I've read on a recent update its minimum 1000W... but I've seen requirements over 900 so is the minimum for slow speeds etc?

Whats the crack! If I get a confident answer within the next 5 hour I'll have the PSU to potentially have them working tomorrow eve.

Cheers!

I would get a 1000, thats what they told me to buy if I get one. Please upload some mining stats when it arrives! Good luck with your miner!

You'll use a lot more energy if you max out a PSU (plus it creates more heat).  You'll consume less energy if you use a PSU at 50% to 60% load.

maybe a APW PSU thats used for the Antminer S7 - can this PSU power this A4?

Each Unit in factory configuration is supposed to use 520w and there are 2 units to make the 280mh miner. So with that math I personally wouldn't use anything less than a single 1300W PSU, 1600W would be my preference though 1300w is around 78% utilized.

ah that explains some things...

would it be better to power them individually with 650+ psus or do they both combine under the same control? Thanks for the answers bud i'm guessing 1200 platinum is also an option to the 1300 too...


IMO
Bare Minimum - EVGA 1300W G2 or equivalent
Recommended - EVGA 1600W P2/T2 or equivalent

2x PSU's is just decreasing your efficiency and increasing your likelihood of problems IMO

When I get my A4, I will be using a 1600W P2 or T2

Ah - in the UK you would have 220 volt lines -- so a single high wattage PSU would be no big deal on your wiring.

While in the US -- putting 13 amps on a single outlet would definitely create a strain (unless you have 20 amp circuits) - since they are designed for 80% continuous loads.

Is it not two identical units that they ship (@ 520 watts each)?  So you could use two 600 watt PSUs?

It's literally oct what is with the people chimming in about scam?
They did it the entire time from July to now.  They've shipped 50 units and expct to ship more next week when they receive "several hundred" units.

Clueless!
I contacted Innsilicon on their main page sales email

I asked if the Group Buy was still on for 3 units at $1,800 bucks with shipping figured out later per unit (I'm still conflicted on if I'm gonna get one of three or will wait)

The email I got back said "Yep .....still good for those mentioning bitcointalk group buy"

Anyway for those interested you may still want to mention group buy ...see if they reply the same. (The email on this was one hour ago as a confirm)

Now to decide or not at my end....sigh ....

Hopefully this helps those less conflicted than myself Sad

 We're still waiting for the first unit to ship.  I'd recommend waiting for the first round of user feedback and learn from preorder user"s experience.

I can confirm that Inno have started shipping. I have a DHL waybill and am tracking the shipment.
Should be here later this week if I can get Customs sorted out. I'll post some pics.

Note: I was not part of the Group Buy.

How many units did you buy?

If 5 units and above then might as well just write directly and make the transaction, since their minimum is 5 to maximise their DHL special rate.

They told me batch 2 is sold out but end of this month, so i will try to join batch 3.

They also said they would ship batch 1 in Aug/Sept.  We're still waiting for the first unit to ship.  I'd recommend waiting for the first round of user feedback and learn from preorder user"s experience.
