I have 3 cubes on the 1500 (6 cables) and 2 cubes on the 1200 (4 cables)...there is room for up to 8 cables on each PSU

3.6 Th/s @ 1429W...

You have 6 cables, why would do that?

Because if he only used three they would likely melt!

They were too cheap to include a second and third PCI-e power socket so I'm guessing that's unlikely; plus it wouldn't actually solve the single socket problem.
More importantly that would be acknowledging there is a problem, so it will never happen.

KfC told me that they have had 0.3% of cubes returned due to burnt out power sockets; I call that acknowledging there is a problem. Given that most people will have done a work around, soldered wires to board, splitter cables and so on the returns are still around 1/300 units.

Can you imagine if 1 in 300 Ford's was burning up due to a design fault? Or 1 in 300 Dell computers?
