Is there anyone here that can post what PSU they have and if its powering an overclocked antminer s3?
I am a dumb girl that can't figure out this whole PSU situation
I can't choose between a CX500, CX600 or CX750 per antminer.
The cost between those power supplies are quite a bit for me.
HELP!

WHAT CONFUSES ME IS THAT SOME PEOPLE SAY I SHOULD GET A PSU WITH 4 SEPERATE PCI-E connections.
SOME PEOPLE SAY THE ANTMINER S3 will overclock well on 2 SEPERATE PCI-E CONNECTIONS.

I can't choose!

I only have two AntMiner S3's. With them OC'd to 250Mhz, using only one wire bundle gets very warm, so I think over time, this is a problem, so I connected two. I am using SVGA Supernova NEX650 G1's, one per miner and had hoped to do 1-1/2 miners per PSU.

A good guide is here.

I used this guys video too.

I know it is the S1, but it has similar requirements, and his information helps make a choice.

Since I cannot get 1-1/2 miners per PSU, I will probably upgrade to something with more capability or downgrade to something cheaper.
