I'd like to know what plan B is if the Klondike board is a flop, Avalon Clone?

Also what PSU are you guys getting to power multiple Klondike's?

Personally I like Corsair Brand PSUs. How many do you want to power?

i'll be powering 8, will one Corsair PSU be enough or should I look at getting two?

35w per K16, so 8 x 35w = 280w in total?

A single Corsair CX430 should do just fine and can be purchased for anywhere from $30-60 online. It was on sale a few weeks ago for $29.99 after rebate at Newegg. The biggest thing you need to check is how many amps the 12V rail supplies. Run that amount through a wattage calculator to make sure everything lines up. The 35 watt figure should be treated as an estimate right now until BKK has a board up and mining, I would figure 40 watts per K16 to be safe

I'm currently looking at running just a single K16. Has anyone given any thought to using a wall wart with a Molex connector (e.g. http://amzn.com/B002TJNDU4) and running it through a molex-->pcie adapter? Are there any reasons why that wouldn't work? I would love not to have a large, exposed power supply if I don't have to.
