Hi guys,

Could we use an 1200 hp server supply for vega 56 mining?

I want to build a rig with 12 vegas. Smiley Probably will use an atx evga  750 watts power supply for Mb, ssd and 2 -3 vegas for example. And 2 X 1200 hp power supply for 9-10 vegas.

My doubt is, In the breakout board i have an 6 pin output.

My vega consomes 175 watts optimized and underclocked. But if wattman crashes sometimes they go to 2xx watts.  Cool

Its ok to use this supply and breakout board with 6 pin connectores and  n 6-Pin Male To 2 x 8-Pin (6+2) Male PCI Express Wire 16AWG  anyway?

The 6 pin connector could handle this wattage, what is the limit?

Thanks

You definitely need to use 2 1200. It would be better to take the 2400W HP psu.

Just buyed 2 hp power supplys  of 1200 watts  and one evga 750 for motherboard and 2 gpus etc..Smiley  totally power from wall is 1750 watts for 9 gpus.

One strange thing happens, when i power on the system , sometimes the gpus dont start, and i dont see the fans running, and consequently they are not recognizes in windows if i leave this way. I have to poweroff and power on quickly and voilá. I have all the fdd cables connected to the power supplys and the same power supply for riser and gpu pcie power.

What could it be this?

Thanks
