We run all of ours at 393. Exact power with an 80Plus Gold Rosewill 750M is 410W on average. That puts it at about 365W draw from the PSU, which is 30.4A on the 12V rail.

For two Ants, you'd need at LEAST 60A on the 12V rail. I'd say 65-70A would be ideal. That RM850 gives off 70A, so you should be fine with plenty of headroom.

I have a corsair 850 that cant handle two overclocked S1s (393MHz).
What model PSU do you have? If it's not the RM850, can you verify the 12V Amp draw is the same 70A? If it is the RM850, you may have a bad unit.

This bitch: CORSAIR HX Series HX850.

But may be something related to the line, I'm not sure.

I have 3 S1's and one Cube.

I have another Corsair 850PSU (I believe it's a TX).

Currently my setup is the following:

TX850W: One Ant, Half Ant, Half Cube
HX850W: One Ant, Half Ant, Half Cube

If I put two Ants in the HX850W the PSU wont start.

The PSUs are connected to two different sockets, those sockets terminate in a single 20A switch.

I`ve got a HX850 supplying two ants at 400mhz. Pulling 860-870w from the wall.

I will soon exchange to 6mm wires, 220V and a 40 A switch, I believe the issue is with the line not the PSU.

So you are running it on 110v? I`v got around 25m of 1,5mm wire from the 60s on a 10amp, but on 220v ofcourse. So i guess that helps.

Since the 393MHz appears to be the "sweet spot" for overclocking with an acceptable rate of HW errors can someome provide me the exact power consumption of it?

Is a Corsair RM850 comfortable with 2 x S1s on 393MHz? Thank you

I use a Gigapmz breakout board with a DPS-800GBA server power supply.  It can power two overclocked ants per supply and the breakout board plus the supply in total are around $60 including shipping.

That Corsair you are looking at would work but it is expensive as heck.

Hi all,
sorry for hijacking this treat op.
i have corsair 750watt. Is it possible to 2 s1 with 1 oc -393 and 1 normal mode? Any advice? Thanks

tight most likely no.

A pair of 750W psu is great for 3 antminers, even overclocked (about 1300-1400W on the 12V depending on brand and efficiency rating). But a single one will not handle overclocked. even stock clocks might be too big a draw (a 750w psu usually only has 600-700W of 12V)

Is a Corsair RM850 comfortable with 2 x S1s on 393MHz? Thank you
