1000W seems a little low to me. I would've used 1200-1500W for piece of mind.

Can you test them with a bigger PSU?

Also, How's your airflow?

I have no idea what's going on here.  I'm running two 4x7950 mining rigs.  I'm running a Seasonic X-1050 psu for each of them.  These rigs have been very unreliable.  I've had them almost a month, and they've only been running for half that time, because they are constantly locking up or shutting down on a daily basis.  It's taking all my time to babysit these things, it's not worth what I'm getting out of it.

If I ran even a small overclock, they would usually shut down in under 5 minutes.  If I ran the cards at stock, the system seemed stable.  But they still would shut down eventually, it just took longer.

The first psu completely died a couple weeks ago, and the second one just died this morning.  This is going to be the third one that I RMA.


What am I doing wrong?  These are supposed to be the best power supplies available, and they are MORE than big enough to handle 5 cards.  Right?  So what's going on?  Why is this happening?
