Sexy. What's your configuration? Are those loadsharing, or two Ants per supply independently? What speed are the Ants running?

Independant, 2 per supply, stock. We have 35 of my 48 running so far.

Actually the connector linked here is an EPS12V type for CPUs. The 8pin PCIe connector mimics the 6pin with an additional 2pin like this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/8pin-PCI-E-Female-Connector-5pcs-/281112494187?pt=Computer_Case_Mods_Stickers_Decals&hash=item41739c406b     ...and yes the pins can be joined.

Yes I see the difference now on pin 7, it is square and not tapered. However I think that is a stock pic? Either way the link you've sent me is cheaper including shipping to the UK. Thanks.

I owe my soul to the Bitcoin code...

Are these correct for the PCIe Power cables? - http://www.watercoolinguk.co.uk/p/6-Pin-Square-Female-VGA-Power-Connector-White_1082.html

Is pin 5 tapered or square - I haven't got a GPU to hand to check.

Edit/ Think I've found it - http://www.watercoolinguk.co.uk/p/8-Pin-Female-PCI-Express-Power-Connector-Clear_1112.html

Yeah be careful, many sellers sell p8 connectors and cant tell the difference

Almost as long as my...


Um, 17" from the handle of the PSU to the end of the board.

There's a guy asking me about UK sales already, gonna work out the details with him. Also I have about 10 boards left un-dibs'd from the current round, and no cables. If you want cables, it'll probably be Tuesday next week before we have them on hand. Y'all seem to really like cables.

Okay, so. We're officially opening sales for the Z750P boards at 6PM CST. The first batch will only have about 75 boards available, but when we have another stack about that size (in a few days) I'll update this again.

We're limiting it to ten boards per person this round, to make sure someone doesn't buy all of them.
Pricing is:
  1-5 units  -  $42.50 each
  6+ units  -  $40.00 each

We'll have some cables available, 18" 16AWG PCIe 6-pin with spades for mating to the boards' screw terminals. Cables are $3.50 apiece. I don't know how many we'll have, probably not a hundred total yet as we just got the parts in today to start generating them.

Shipping will probably be USPS Priority Medium Flat-Rate Box, unless otherwise specified and worked out with me while ordering.

Orders will be taken on a First-Come First-Serve basis; send me a PM AFTER 6PM CST with the desired number of boards and/or cables and I'll add you to the queue and work out payment details. We accept both PayPal and BTC, which the BTC price will be based off a random sampling of Coinbase's exchange rate taken sometime in the afternoon.

All order messages sent before 6PM CST according to the forum timestamp will be ignored.

Hi,

ANy plans to have a reseller in Europe?

For GPUs, 6-pin standard I believe uses two 12V lines, two grounds and the third ground is a detect pin. 8-pin standard uses all three 12V lines and three grounds, the other two grounds being detect pins. So a 6-pin with three 12V lines can adapt directly to an 8-pin by the addition of two more grounds, so long as the rail and/or wiring are able to handle the current required. For GPUs, 8-pin is rated for 150W, which means 50W per wire at 12V so about 4.2A per wire. These supplies, these boards, and the cables I supply will have no problem handling that kind of power.

All of my cards that require an 8 pin connector have come with an adapter from 6-8 pin.

The power supplies I've seen just bridge two extra grounds so i think it's bs marketing
