Ok, that Makes sense...

Sometimes I just need to talk them out, to understand..... If you get my Drift.

I do understand what you are talking about, the amount of Adapters is crazy.
I do understand Polarity and wiring.
But technology moves quick, and terminology of hardware changes by the second...

I agree will look sloppy,
I did find a 4 pin Y cable, that would most likely solve that problem.

Looking at 3-4 cards, Sapphire r7 370's. Right now 1 on the MB with 2 risers.
MB: ASROCK H81 PRO BTC.
EVGA 1300W Power Supply

That is the exact power supply I have connected to it right now, that you Linked...

Since the 2880 PS, is next to My Open frame Ethereum Rig, I was just wanting to us that.
I could free up the EVGA 1300w for something else.

I was more worried about the 150 Watts of the Pico powering the MB.
Could all ways us a Cheap Power supply for the MB, and Power the PCI Cards with the 2880.
But I do understand, that power fluctuations can be a problem ?
But have seen MANY rigs using Dual PS...

Thanks For your Time...
Needed somewhere to think this thru...

DaPlayer Thanks You....

I suggest very little on this  because If you do it wrong you will kill the mobo.

So lets take this from a different direction.

On you mobo what are you looking to run?

better yet what is your mobo?

You can not run a large mobo with a lot of cards using a pico-psu.

So if you are looking to run 4 pcie gpus and a big beats of an eth mining unit.

the effort to adapt the 2880 to your needs is not much of a money saver and as you know will run loud.

there are ways to do what you want but they involve a lot of adapters  and won't save you the money you want to save.

below will do 5 cards
https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-SuperNOVA-Crossfire-Warranty-120-G2-1300-XR/dp/B00COIZTZM/ref=sr_1_1?

the frankenstein  2880

 needs the pico cost 40 need the power adapter I found cost  15 = 65

it will provide a four pin for your mobo not a 8 pin  so if you have a big cpu and want to drive a lot of cards you will have issues.  and be really loud.

the wiring is complicated and you are telling me you don't really know how.

that is good  since you do not want to kill off gear.

but if you are buying 4 or 5 or 6 gpus  get the evga 1300g2  and do not worry much.

me I never build bigger then a four card rig.  i build 3 and 4 card rigs as open rigs
I build 2 card rigs as gamer miners.

I have fucked around with enough psu's to know I would most likely not try what you want to try.
the wires will be sloppy and the build will not be neat.

Still not sure what to do about the 2 4 pin power...

Also, Is 150-160 Watts going to be enough watts to power a Motherboard, Cpu and Cpu Fan ?

Thanks

DaPlayer

Ok, Yes I understand.

But really I would need more then this...

As this takes care of the Motherboard 24pin Slot, my mother board also has two 4pin slots.
So how do I solve that, will a 6 pin to a 8 pin work, or do I need a 6 pin to two 4pin cpu slot?
The Pico-Box only has 1 4pin???
Then I will need 6 pin to sata/molex for mother board power GPU Slots, Risers and Hard Drive's.

Am I missing anything else?

Thanks for your time.

the part I listed above needs for you to supply it with 12 volt power     so take a  pcie jack from your  2880

plug this into it

http://www.ebay.com/itm/PCI-E-6-Pin-to-2-2-1mm-DC-Barrel-Plug-for-Gridseed-Blade-ASIC-/262471607932?


plug this in the amazon part  and boom it works  or boom it shorts  ie make sure you know the dc is +- correct.


So the two parts should do the trick.  it is up to you to set them up correctly.

 I suggest using a cheap meter to check your polarity

Hello,

As I have bought one of these Kits in the Past.
What a great Power supply and Breakout Board. Works Flawless.
Except for the Jet Engine in my basement.... LOL....

Now I have Inspired My Self to Ethereum mining, Off of a PC.

I would like to run the rig from this power supply.
As this Breakout board only has PCI Slots, I would also need a Motherboard power cable.
Do you have a way to do this? Or How would I do this?

I think I had seen I would still need a Power Supply for the Mother Board. I can't imagine there isn't a wire, or something???
Please let me know....

Thanks For your time.
DaPlayer

if you know how to wire this correctly

I think it could work with the breakout board.

make sure to use 2 cables per gpu as a gpu will use around 180-240 watts  and one wire is hard to handle over 200 watts.

Correct, or you can also use a "Pico PSU" to provide power to the motherboard, and use powered risers and provide power to the cards by PCIe cables.  The PICO PSU is powered by 12V so it can also be run from a PCIe cable from the breakout board.

it could be made to work but you still need an atx psu  to run the pc

Is this working for gpus?

Needed too, somewho knows where can i go?

Need some breakout boards and cables. Anyone in the EU selling? I am in UK and new to this forum.
Thanks

Anyone in the EU happen to have these available and if so how many?

I have boards and full packages in stock at this time as well, both the 2880W and 4K setups. 

Yeah the breakout boards look perfect for the job, I'm in the EU so would be best for me to get them from J4bberwock, unfortunately I think he is very busy at the moment.

If you contact padrino here on the forums, he always seems to have a bunch of these on hand:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/wts-ibm-2880w-psus-j4bberwock-breakout-boardscables-1077136

I literally bought 10 from him last week - the breakouts are definitely the way to go IMO, and I love the 2880, it's a great supply...

if you can't catch then try this site if you live in the US !!!


he sells the same boards , some you may have to ask for, he may not have listed.

Hi j4bberwock .. do you have 2880w psu with board ?
and can be shipping to malaysia?

Any chance you could check your PMs J4bberwock, really interested in purchasing the breakout boards.
