That's 8 cables. Eva 1300 has 6.

They should run cooler with no internet because that will stop them from hashing.  I wonder what makes some heat up when they're not doing any work?

My RM850 took a dive on me. There is a known bug on several batches of them that will randomly pop a capacitor and the fan will never work again which will overheat the PSU. I sent it back to Corsair for replacement and they didn't have any stock to send me one back. So a week later I called them to "complain" a little bit and said if you can't give me a replacement PSU can you please refund me on what it cost or send me another upgraded model. I lucked out and they are now sending me the HX850i model. One of their high-end models.

This applies to ALL RM series power supplies. Too bad Corsair is still shipping these knowing there is a problem. I'm thinking of stepping away from Corsair products just because of that.


It's been confirmed since last year that any RM series that's shipped out with a lot number below 1341 suffers from a defect of the fan not spinning resulting in the OTP tripping.
This has been confirmed by corsair rep themselves.
If you DO have one of these models, judging from the thread they're still shipping out the older ones, either return it to Amazon and roll the dice again or contact corsair and they will send you a newer model with a prepaid shipping label!
Please note this issue is generally caused by ppl with rigs that use less than 50% of the psu power.

evga1300 has 4x1pcie + 2x2pcie
use 2x1pcie + 1x2pcie for 1 antminer s5 and it will be ok (1x2 pcie connect to 2 boards, one single pcie to first board and second single pcie to second board. Do not connect 1x2pcie to 1 board and 2 single pcie cables to second board)

Question is , how will he drive 8 pcie connectors through 6 cables on the evga 1300.

Good for you!  I'm jealous.  

EDIT:  My S2 has been rock solid for over 7 months.  My S3's were great.  It's only my S5's that overheat with no internet or network connection.

Cool, thankies

it's about 590 watt at the wall so 1180 watt. You are using like 91% of your PSU. It's fine

Will an EVGA SuperNova 1300 G2] PSU be sufficient to power two S5's? (link: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817438011&cm_re=evga_1300_g2-_-17-438-011-_-Product)

I have a brand new one, and space is a bit of an issue so I'd rather not buy a second power supply unless I really have to. Don't pan to overclock the s5's so only asking about it's standard power draw.

Things go well if support staff just drinking coffee and have some rest...

 

Its hard...  Engineers are always working to make it better and better.  S5 is the most stable miners even compared to S1.  Hopefully this tradition continues.

Make our tech support job easier, too!   

LOL too funny.

I am making room to add to my little collection and get ready for warmer weather. No overclocking for me.

Bitmain, can you start building unstable miners? My home mining setup is boring me with its stability.  

My S2 recently had 70 days uptime until a brief power outage made me restart it.

My internet connection (3G) was down for two days. I did not know it at the time. The miner was running 20C cooler with no internet connection.

Please don't try that method, the aim of your experiment is to get the chips toasty [if they are heating up], not oven bake the entire board. There are plenty of other components on the boards which require cooling, and will more than likely fail before the chips do.

Woke up to this in my inbox:

S5 is the most stable Antminer model. PSU wise, for home use, EVGA 1300W to power up 2 of the S5

590W average per miner at the wall.  Some may show just under 600W

how is s5 working? is it stable? what power supplies needed?           

When my pool is dead or when my internet connection is out with my S3+ all it does it beep and beep, it doesn't overheat past 80C.
