Enough to power 2x Antminer S9's for as cheap as possible
 - 1x 2880W PSU
 - 1x Breakout board
 - 20x 24" PCIe cables
 - 1x C19 power cable of choice (see below for stock)
Order components without PSU for $115
Upgrade to IBM 2980W Platinum PSU for an additional $30  
Note: I would recommend the 2980W Platinum PSU packages to power 2x of the new Antminer T9's, but these will still be at 97% load.


Do someone know if the 2880w PSU can really power 2x S9 on the long term ?
I made a test, and this is 3200w at the wall for two recent S9s.
The PSU seem able to handle it (Server PSUs are strong) but will it last long like that Huh

Yes, they can really power 2x S9's long term.  3200W at the wall is exactly 2880W DC power consumption at 90% efficiency (since these would be considered max load).  I have hundreds of them powering S9's in Data centres for months now without problem at this level. My failure rate is ~1%, most of which is DOA's.
