Alright. I dont know. I guess Im antsy. - I settled on one, but now I think Ive decided that 5 Apollos sounds like a good amount.
But before I put the plan Ive thought up in action, I figure I should share it and get some feedback from you kind folks who, unlike me, know your stuff. And really its a simple plan. - Since Im dedicating space for an Apollo, I figure I might as well dedicated the entire outlet to Apollo(s).
Ive done some research and have some numbers, but they are bit confusing, so instead of confusing everyone, Im just going state my assumption that in an ideal situation, to run 4 Apollos, you would need a PSU that delivers about 1200W. - As that would give each Apollo 200W each use while running at 70% of its rated load.
However, the highest PSU Ive found that will run off of a 120V outlet is 900W.
https://www.parallelminer.com/product/platinum-psu-kit-hp-1200-watt-x8-for-asic-gpu-miner/My thoughts are that it seems like it could be pushing it to run 4 Apollos on a 900 Watt PSU. And it would be running at full load, which should be fine. But Im curious to hear what you experts think.
Which brings me to a few more questions:
(1) Hooking all this up to one outlet should be fine, right?
(2) Does this plan sound reasonable?
(3) Is that PSU actually good?
(4) Would a 900W PSU support 4 Apollos running turbo?
(5) Is there anything else I should know?
Side questions:
(S1) Why dont power supplies come with power cords?
(S2) Does anyone know if the official Future Bit PSU will come with the power cord?
