Anyone running these in the US? I know their psu uses 220v, should I get a 110v adapter or just get a regular 1600w EVGA?

this psu worked great with my panda miner


http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rosewill-TOKAMAK-1500W-Full-Modular-Power-Supply-80-PLUS-TITANIUM-Certified-/172455843785?

it is better then the evga 1600 g2 for sure.

maybe equal to the evga 1600 p2.

and at 299.99 the price is better.

I have owned all three of the evga 1600 models

Quick question:
How reliable these guys are?
Is it safe to send them 50% on 50 machines for pre-delivery?
Does anyone use their hosting?

cant be same board as they have 4 up and 4 down cards.  If they were smart they made it 8 slots and no risers.  I suspect that is the case if this is indeed legit pics.

Hi Philip....Do you know if this Msata will fit the Pandaminer ??





most likely it will fit the b1  and allow an image of smOS to work fine

Since no one has shown a new b3 I can't tell.

My older model panda miner  has a 64 gb msata that I had laying around

Eliovp has new pix on the B3 on th3 panda thread.

Looks like full 470 cards are used ... no more mxm

Also looks like same mobo

you forget space.  I can stack A MINIMUM of 20 pandas on 1 rack vs 10 for my built units.  Space is a big deal.

yes, you are absolutely right, that can be an important factor too

(not for me, that's why I didn't think about that)

Does the "Customized Power Supply B1 Plus" also work for countries in europe?

Model   PM-B1-1600
Input   230-8A 50HZ
Output   12V ==113A
Maximum power output   1600W

I use an old Antminer S7 power supply unit 1600w for B1 without any issues.

With eliovp rom i mine Eth at about 1050 watts.  Just fyi!

Yup.... space & footprint is a big factor, because its also a way to control heat and temperature.

If I have 10-20 Panda stacked nicely - I can easily manage the cooling requirements.

Hi,

I saw that PandaMiner will come out with a new type of miner.

Can anybody explain how is this new machine better up against the old one? (the old one has 8xRX480 GPU, the new miner has 8xRX470 GPU, oh, and the power consumption is the same - as I read on PandaMiner's website)

Maybe I missed something?

they did not let me buy 1 of them so a head to head show down is not going to happen.

frankly the b1 was nice gear.

the b3 will most likely be not quite as nice.

and since I can't buy one no chance for head to head test.

I think that PandaMiner's stuff is good for fast deployment (if you want to start 50-100-200 miner in a short period). But if you have time to build the miners "DIY", it is worth to buy the most reliable parts and build it yourself. And you can sell the GPUs and buy newer generation GPUs if you need.
