BTW, the EVGA 1300 SuperNova G2 has only 6 PCI-E. If you want to overclock two S3, you need 8 PCI-E. I guess you can buy some adapters to fit the two missing.

I went for a Corsair RM-1000.

No, EVGA1300 G2 has 8 connectors: 4x1 (single) and 2x2(double)=8
I have it, so I checked.

Strange it clearly said 6 on the box. Damm, if a knew i would have bought that one.

not to beat up this topic too much, but on the box it says:
6X6+2 pin PCI-E
and on the next line
2X6pin PCI-E

It's OK since you bought a good supply as well...

Overall, I always consult here for power supplies:

Well i suck, i even asked the "tech guy" and he told me that if i needed 8 PCI-E, i should go with the RM 1000, since the G2 "had only 6". I guess he tough I needed 8 single PCI-E. Anyway whatever. Worst case, i will run the RM 1000 at 90%+.

Thanks guys for the rectification Wink

The 1300W G2 has six PCIe cables, and eight PCIe plugs. Two of the cables have two ends on them, so just keep in mind that if you use both plugs on the one cable all the current for the two plugs is going through that one cable, and more importantly all the current for two plugs is going through the connector on PSU. You shouldn't pull more than ~200W per plug if you're going to use both.

Yeah got it ;-)

thanks

Thx for digging that out.... Bitmain please take note. Do the same for us. At least a reasonable value instead of full value. Usd 50-100 seems a fair value as computer accessories.

$10 is not an unreasonable value for a DEFECTIVE board, but declaring a low value for a NEW product is not exactly apples-to-apples.

Didn't I mentioned reasonable & not 10usd. And also referring to posts above... Bitmain themselves are not declaring the item price correctly. We buy using btc & there is no usd value in their website. Also declaring the item properly such as computer accessories so that custom clearance will be much easier for many other countries.

Many get slapped with taxes ranging 10-30%. Those lucky ones not getting slapped with that please stop trolling & talk crap also miners getting stucked @ customs cos they don't know which category it falls under.

Just a small request not begging. If Bitmain cares about loyal supporters & customers, imo they should at least consider such small request from a buyer who wants to purchase more than 50 units.

You were asking to declare a 50-100 USD value for an item that costs $400+ and you are acting like everyone wants that. I don't. I want the declared value to match my invoice so that it would clear customs without delays. Any time wasted on clearance will likely cost me more than any tax or brokerage fee I might need to pay. If you want different treatment stop trolling (in your own words) the announcement thread and talk to bitmain directly about your specific situation instead of soliciting tax fraud on public forums.

seems many of u dont understand customs can keep your package becouse of wrong declaration in value and even gave u some additional costs for lying about real price Wink

Bitmain had that problems and many packages was returned or held by customs, thats why its no more 120USD but the real price

Are you trying to troll or just cant read?

Did i asked for 120$ on the box or i asked for real value with no bollocks?

Do you understand difference between honest price and honest description and request from any one like me or you?

Im asking bitmain to declare whats in the box the way it should be and the value which should be real; not taken from space.

Seems like bitmain because of issue choose to declare higher price because this way he can pleased customs and units are not returned or seized by them.

Once BTC are in his wallet fuck the customer.
I will repeat that once again: S1 price was going down to level of 0.4btc but i was still paying over 40£ per box. I did paty that when s1 was at level of 1BTC.

Kapisch?

Can you see what i mean? Charge is coming from no one else than UPS and customs but is given thanks to declaration on the box from bitmain.

I'm real fun of bitmain but this game is getting to expensive. Specially for people from UK. Damn you EU.
