The power consumption depends a lot on ambient temperature. My stock PSU consumes 850W at night and 950W during the day.
Upgraded to the Seasonic X-650 Gold 750W, and day power consumption reduced to 870W. All at 350MHz.

850 W sounds like a lot for 3 hashing modules @ 350 MHz. This is at 120 V?

I am at 230 V and my default Batch #2 units with the 850 W power supply (enermax) pulls 765 W and the units I converted to a SilverStone Technology Strider Gold ST1200-G run at 735 W (92% power factor)

To be honest I am thinking of upgrading from corsair AX860i to AX1200i so I can test oc settings in the 375+

The AX860i is rather impressive and puts out little heat.

Batch 1 users did you put new thermal paste? or are you running stock? I might want to add new thermal paste and maybe set the fan speed lower if I can get Temps under 45...

no new thermal paste here. Just upgraded power supply

I'm using Strombom firmware stable @ 11h 11m 33s 83647.44 @ 350 on slush Suggested difficulty set to 32 my temps are alot lower 46

Fans are not set @ 100% Fan1 2400 Fan2 3960 Fan3 3720

How did you change the fan setting from 100% to auto? Thanks

I flashed using Strombom firmware and just changed 300 to 350 and that was the define Fan speed
im using openwrt-ar71xx-generic-tl-wr703n-v1-squashfs-factory_20130519b.bin

can anyone recommend replacement fans for batch one?

I am interested as well. These look like they can reach 4000rpm max. Will buy a couple in case one fails.

what temps do your batch 1 normally run at on 300?

was running on 325 for 25mins, all was looking fine with real minimal HW, then they just started jumping....

so they should run 350 ok with stock PSU?

Thats what I do Cool

Is the measured consumption for 3 or 4 module Avalon? And what should be the recommended PSU wattage for 350 Mhz and 4 modules?

This is for 3 module avalon batch#2 black (stock 750W PSU). Just calculate the Wattage for 3 module to 1 and you know what it will be for 4 module Wink

Hmm 720W IMO seems to be too much for 750W PSU in the long term usage.

I think 750W is output power of the PSU. Should be ~900W@Wall.

At the moment I calculate 720W@Wall with ~80% effiziency = 576W PSU output. Thats fine I think.

Erm you are right. I haven't realized you measured it on the PSU input. My mistake.

325 should be ok on 750 psu?

There is 14% reserve, so that should be OK. But it depends on quality of PSU.

ebereon,
Great post about power!

What about hash rate at 375?
I am afraid to test it and as reported there is no big increase performance

Thanks!

As you can see, I had it running only 1 minute. It had 180HW errors and ~15 shares. The hashrate was ~76GH... very bad and not healty.
