Its working, however this damn thing stops hashing every few hours and needs to be restarted

Are you able to connect when it stops mining?

I don't think 1300W is good enough for an antminer, especially when beginners are present.

I'm running 2 different power supplies (RM850 Corsair and Quark 750 Rosewill) and they're doing perfectly. My rig runs at about 1KW (Batch 6) and the PSU doing 2 hashing boards isn't even breaking a sweat (RM850).

I'm also monitoring power to make sure each PSU runs on less than 80% power.


But on to my question: What do you think about the new Batch 6 and Batch 8 miners, with the giant Buck Converter on it? What's the reason for this, and how might it affect efficiency and stability?
