I really appreciate your feedback and guidance always. So I see you talked about the 1080ti's, did you just use them as a reference for capacity to wattage calculation. Though, I know most, if not all of your GPU rigs are now 1080ti waterblock. You run a bigger farm and have been doing this for years.Right now, I'm interested in the best Sol to Wattage ratio and also maximizing my budget. I have only been doing this for 8 months now and everything is paid for with savings so far, so I want to be careful.
With 20 1080ti at 200 watt TDP, that's running at 100% and total 4000watt and 500watt overhead for Mobo, CPU, Risers and other components in a rig, like you said 4500watt which still give me room for another rig that's about 1100watt in total, assuming my calculation is right.
24A x 240V = 5760.
Tried to pick up the Ebay linked products but the actual PDU was gone but search and found the same model, with the extension bar that's still below $100 without considering shipping or Tax. But, I don't think I would be needing an extension, why did you recommend that?
Thank you so much for taking time to respond, very well appreciated.
That pdu has 4 jacks each one uses c19 to c20 cables.
Each jack can handle 12 amps . But the master circuit is 24 amps.
If your psu are 240 volt and use c19 to c20 you can do four of them . Each one can pull 1350 watts no issue.
So a eight card 1070 rig set to 120 watts a card will pull 1050 watts. Using 4200.
That is 32 1070 set to 80% tdp.
No extension bar limits you to four psus but if you set to 120 watts you are all good
If you push to 135 watts or 90% for each card
It is 1170 a rig. That is 4680 watts
