Hi,

Its not the smartest way to run your board without a fuse.
Well theres a reason why your PSU is shutting down (overheating or overload), maybe you can get a meter and check if theres a wattage-peak when your board is shutting down.
I dont know what kind of asic you running but maybe your PSU does not have the spefication to run your asic?

I know, but the funny thing is the the asic only requires ~200watt and 280watt if overclocked :/ My psu is 750watt so it should not be a problem. However, i have found a solution for this, I have bought a server psu and cables that i will convert to work with the asic.
Thanks,
JT

Hi,
I have a asic miner cube and have tried 3 different power supplies and the cube powers up for ~2-3 sec then shuts off again (runs for 2 sec with fan spinning then shuts of and makes a click noise)
The psu then dose not respond for some time. After waiting a bit the psu can power back on but crashes again after the 2 sec window, this repeats again and again.
I have tried to turn it on without the fuse inserted and the fan spines up and dos not crash.
I have read some where that some psu's have load protection, but i think this is not the problem as i have tried with different psu's.
What am i doing wrong Huh
The Main psu I was planing to use was the x-viper 750 watt but dont know why its not working like it should :/
Thanks,
JT

Have done some research on my psu and i cam across that it has load protection :/ what do i do Huh
Is there any way to get around this ??
Thanks,
JT
