Claymore should not mind peoples who do not know how to power their cards,
My rx480 cards can be powered 400W each safely (i even build own modular cables), my rig can work stable till 2,5kW (now using 760W), i am prepared for any algo with overclocking

ummm... dare I say that this seems like a huge waste of headroom? Yes, I understand that it is ideal to have a max load of about 25% less than your PSU's wattage rating, but you indicate that your system has 70% headroom. Not sure how you can ever ROI a system that includes excessive costs from idle PSU wattage capabilities, but you're right lol... you are certainly prepared to max out those 480's
He is probably using a server PSU with an adapter board to break out the connections into a usable configuration. This is actually a pretty typical configuration and the server PSU's can be bought for little to nothing ($20-$50) depending on efficiency and capacity. Running at 240V inputs, a 2,000W-2,900W capacity server PSU is not that uncommon and readily available on places like eBay and Amazon.
