Re: ANTMINER S5: The New Standard, 0.51J/G, Shipping on Jan 4th [Sales Open]
@IITravel01,
It will consume 600W but it is depends on your PSU efficiency counts and if the PSU can take some overloading. 1300W PSU, sure there is not much overhead
Yes it is, as long as its not a terrible brand.
It should, but it's close to boarding on it not (only 10% headroom). I would think it's OK, but would keep on eye on the setup for a while before feeling comfortable leaving it unattended.
S5s are 590W at the wall with a ~85% PSU. That means 500 pre PSU. 1000/1300 = plenty of headroom.
The S3 specs. stated at the wall, but my meter on my power supply and my Kill-A-Watt showed that the readings were at the power supply. If the S5 is the same then not so much headroom.

is a 1300 watt PSU enough to run two S5's?

And ambient temps and 110-240V.
I tried both 120v and 230v (with a step up voltage converter and a true sine wave UPS and a 240v Kill-A-Watt) with a Gold 1200w (showed 91% efficiency with 2 X S3+) and also used a Platinum 1600w power supply. You can check my earlier posts for more info. 3 x S3+ at default took about 1,200w at the wall (but is rated at 355w x3 = 1,065w).
