Hey guys, I recently purchased a used s7 off ebay and it came with 2 power supplies. The issue i am having is that each power supply only has 8 pci connectors.

Is it a bad idea to only attach 2 connectors to each hash board? It seemes to boot up but I'm hesitant to run it like rhis..

What id like to know is 1. Is this at all risky? 2. Does this reduce the efficiency of my miner? If any of these are yes, what do you guys suggest as a power supply? The official bitmain one, or something else?


okay  you  don't want 2 psu's  soooo easy to short the gear.




you can take 1 psu and run  with 2 cable per board  and one cable for the controller.

if the psu is rated for 1200 watts  and you adjust the frequency down just  a bit

if you lower the hash rate to about 4200  it would take about  1100 watts  and would work.

the exact name and model of the psu's please
