not enough psu due to overclocking.

I suggest you get a kill a watt meter under 30 bucks.
I suggest you do not over clock.

I have a 1000 watt fractal design I run 2 ants it is a platinum it pulls 718 watts at the kill a watt plug.

You can be certain It would be at 880-920 watts if I oc it.

and my psu would get hot and shut down.

A 1000 watt psu does not like to put out 900 watts 24/7/365

A kill a watt meter is a must for you

also you could try gravito's idea and plug in a 2.5 inch hdd to a sata jack. the pc may not like an un balanced load .

you are still getting close to redline . if you have a kill a watt meter and the 2 units pull 800 watts with 1 oc and 1 normal I would think the psu does not like an unbalanced load ie all 12 volt.

for now try no oc since it is free and safe. tell us if that works

Thanks all for your suggestions and help.

The X1050 has 3 PCI-E slots. Based on the load-balancing idea, I tested 1 at each end, leaving the centre empty, both ants running OK. I thought it could be middle PCI-E slot faulty so sent the PSU for an exchange. New PSU same problem. Now running ok for 30 mins. Pray that it lasts.

Both OCed to 190G.

Thanks again.

I'm EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED that out of the 8 I ordered most of them were used! Two of them are already past their warranty date and don't even have PCIe plugs on them (past generation out of warranty hardware). One of those was DOA, the other one's fan is noticeably louder than the rest. Has anyone that ordered from Bitmain received used equipment? Sushi has some serious explaining to do!

Can advise how to check warranty date?
Thanks!

The warranty date is the date the order was sent not the date of boards manufacture.

Help!

I got my second ant.

Plug in and run 10mins alone, no problem.
Plug 2 ants (1 stock, 1 overclock 190), PSU cut off and cannot start again.
Switch off PSU, wait 10-20 minutes, PSU can work again.
Plug in 1 ant can run Ok.

PSU is Seasonic X1050 80 plus gold.

What is the cause?
1) PSU unable to draw sufficient power from mains?
2) PSU is faulty?
3) 2 ant is overloading the PSU?

Experts, please help?

Thank you

I was running 2 stock ants on my Seasonic Plat 660 today by accident and there was no problem for over 20 hours. When I realized it was the wrong PSU I switch it to my other Seasonic plat 760.

Just panicked watching my 2.9 btc investment hit the rails as noted by those who are 0watching btc value plummet tonight. Rest assured I will mine like a trooper when the machines turn up.

Lower price -> slower difficulty jumps

Silver lining

yeah it would be nice to see a stable 550-600 dollar price for about 60 days or so.

It would drop diff down to 10-15% and it would slow asics builders up from selling and dumping gear on the market . I would like to see this for a bit of time. Less frenzy would be good for a change.
