This sounds like the way forward; just remove the safety features using the software!

Any chance of a walk through? I'm thinking I could hook a laptop up to each PSU, set the rails to 40A and repeat for each PSU; will the PSU "remember" the settings or only run 40A while linked?

A screenshot walk-through would be real nice... anybody?
how i can do that?HuhHuhHuhHuhHuhHuhHuhHuhHuhHuh?

I have just connected the Corsair Link up to my laptop (USB to internal USB header adapter required) and I for one am very impressed with this PSU. Credit where credit is due, a power supply should shut off if you try to pull more than 20A on one PCI-e cable; anything more than that would be stupid and dangerous!

The remaining question I have is if the PSU has memory such that it starts up using the previous settings or if it runs at default 20A per PCI-e until the Corsair Link application connects? If it's the first of these two options that's all well and good; but if it's the later then can I plug five AX1200i boxes into a USB hub and control them all from one laptop? Where are the Corsair reps when you need them, huh?

In a situation where one cube has a fault and starts pulling a lot of juice other PSU's would just keep pumping 12v into it; but if I set these to trip at 10% above the max draw for each cube then it would cut out and possibly save Neptune and / or save my house burning down.

-EDIT-
Could somebody with an account at overclock.net pm CorsairGeorge and ask him to come in here and help us out? Corsair stand to sell a lot of PSU's in addition to the large number of us who have already ordered their flagship model; some support wouldn't go a miss.

Glow Stick Dance!

The AX series Corsairs aren't cheap. They're some of the most expensive PSUs on the market.

Your right.  I was thinking of the EVGA Supernova 1300 which is on sale now for $150 after rebate.

Beautiful

Agreed, those EVGA PSUs are probably the best buy for mining rigs. I have 5 or 6 of them.

So its a single-rail psu.

BUT each of the 8 pcie slots are factory defaulted to 20 Amps.  Changeable up to 40 max each through the link software.  stupid!

Almost as stupid as KNC only including one 6 pin pcie power plug on the board.

Just ask for refund for my titan order and they say all sales are final... KNC become so lame company and tread customers as slaves ...

Uh? Do you not read (or know how to read) everything before you agree to buying it? KNC has said from the get go that there won't be any refunds on their Titan's. So who's lame fault is that, their's because you forgot to read all the details or yours because you forgot to read all the detials?

You really have some nerve! LOL

I can not go more than 375 2 cubes at corsair 1200i more 375
Shut down psu

What the ff
......

I have a corsair 1200i on my computer that would constantly shutdown when the gpu's pulled more than 20A. I have dual water cooled 7990s. I have enabled multi rail OCP in the Corsair and use over clock protection to adjust the rails to allow more than 20A. I am using the Corsair link software to do this. I don't know if there is a way to do this without the software because the default is 20A. So this is probably why more than 2 cubes will shut down the psu. Just my thoughts.

This sounds like the way forward; just remove the safety features using the software!

Wtf is a virtual rail

Corsair say's the 1200i is single rail but it really isn't. It has multiple rails that have OCP protection to 20A. You can increase the OCP protection beyond 20A using the link software. This power supply is designed to work best in a PC where you can over clock the rails to 40A using the link software.

No wonder the price is so cheap compared to other similar wattage units.

Question to the "single rail/Multi rail" specialists:

I have a 1600 Lepa (which is multi rail) and this one has 6 VGA plugs (so 6 cables).  What I want to do is connect 2 cables to one Neptune-box (I solder one additional PCE-plug on the box), so in total 6 cables to 3 boxes.

My question now: does it matter that I join two multi-rail outputs to one ?? (in essence connecting one +12 multi to the other +12 multi rail).

I just whipped this little number up for possible use on a Neptune.

I am considering upping it to 16AWG and HCS pins but only if there is demand for it.



Well I'll definately take 10 of the upgraded ones, if it goes ahead I'll see if any other UK users want them so you can just do 1 shipment.

I dunno:



Notice the slider is all the way to the right to get 40A. You can only activate it by checking OCP otherwise it will default to 20A.

I understand that

but it seems counterintuitive to be able to virtual rail multiple rails if you could just have them all draw to 1 main rail???




Shit product + marketing bs

DPS2000-BB.  These PSU's are rock solid.  I run 5 Neptune boxes off each one.  No issues whatsoever. Smiley



What is the power consumption at the wall with this IBM PSU .
