Quick warning to anyone switching out the PSUs. You must have at least 60a on a single rail for this to work. I have now blown four PSUs trying to get this thing working. It just swallowed up two 750w 53a PSUs.

Pistachio thank you for the info I have a quick question. Is it 60 amps per 12volt connection or 60 amps as a whole. The reason I am asking is because I purchased two 1350 Watt Enermax Platimax power supply's for the avalon but the 12 volt rails are individually split to 30 amps each. Will this be a problem.

I don't know if the 1350 will be okay. I am quoting 60a as a whole but keep in mind I just blew out two 750w 53a on single rails. So, I thinking it needs more than 30a each, at least on the main PSU that starts it up.

Here are two PSUs that I have tested and are currently running fine at 210-220Gh stock settings.

They best way I found to check is to pull it up on newegg.com and go to the specifications tab. Newegg is pretty good about listing this info. Amazon is horrible about it.


May I ask what 750 power supply's did you blow up ?
