[color=red][b]Watch out! According to your monitoring, “FUZZYPC” is running at 98 and 101C!![/b][/color]Geez! It really sounds like those Seasonic (and XFX versions of the same) 1250W are the only way to go.
I’m happy to hear that it wasn’t your new rig that gave off the smell!
I ended up ordering one of those Seasonic yesterday as well. It’s too bad that the PC I use daily is only able to have one gpu running when I’m not home, so it’s getting upgraded tomorrow ;)
Oh, very nice remote monitoring! Teach me how, master!? :)
I’ll need a static IP and some port forwarding, I guess, but apart from that… what is the software you are using for this? Or did you create it yourself? Or is it part of CGminer somehow?
[/quote]The 7990 usually run around 102degrees… under 100 i call cool ;D, cgminer haven’t crashed once! pretty damn impressive!
I only buy seasonic from now on, between me and nutnuts experience we have tried and failed quite some PSU´s, We both use Seasonic for all our rigs and non of them have ever quited! with both of us running 4x gpu rigs thats pretty damn impressive!btw regarding the monitoring thing, its pretty easy to set up, but you need to get a webhost or set up on on your own machine:

Woke up today to a smell of really well burned plastic, i was like NOOOOO!Went down to the basement and was like a narcotics dog, sniffed all the cards but couldnt locate the source.
Checked my monitoring app to see that my 4x7970 rig was down, so i started investigating it over and over. everything seemed fine and i restarted it back up (phu, it wasnt one of the 7970 cards).I then realized that that burning smell came from the ONE bad PSU i got (apart from the Enermax), A one month old Corsair TX750,
that construction consist of a mini atx mobo with amd LOW end processor and 1ram+128gb ssd and two 280X.
Sooo powerwize i should be fine! Apparently not…Will see if the burned smell goes away. but im ordering a Seasonix X1250 as we speak cause that Corsair gotta go!
[/quote]OMG - [b]now you’re scaring me[/b] :p I’ve got 1x Corsair HX850 Pro Gold powering 3x7950 currently pulling 580W@Wall + 1x Corsair RM750 Gold powering 2xR9 280X pulling 470W@Wall. I hope I wont be smelling anything soon here :o

[/quote]Im guessing you under volt since you you get that power consumption on wall side?, 2x 280X at 470w including 150w system consumption??, you shouldn’t be worried.
I dont under volt so my 280X pull close to 300w each. still should be more then enough given that the estimate from a PSU is on the dc side, meaning with a 80% effective psu you should be able to draw 900w on a 750w psu

[/quote]Ok ty =) I was just worried b/c I got the PSU’s from the same brand width identical PSU watts, running the same cards
yes I run the 280X @ 1000engine / 1400memory @ 1.07v each. Running with no hickups since saturday at about 1370kh/s total. Idle power consuption is around 105w. Undervolting saves me about 50+ watts per card, compared to stock settings.

Pffft!
Run em to the max! They’re pretty when they blow! ;D

I have an Akasa Venom Power 1000w PSU,
Could this handle 3x Vapor-x R9 280X ?
Asus P8Z77 V-Pro, i5 3570K, 3 Sata devices, 4 casefansThanks

[/quote]If your gonna go max hashrate and not undervolt etc i would be sceptical.
Nutnut runs a 3x 280X Asus matrix platinum on a rig with Seasonic X1050, the Seasonic does work a bit with cooling the PSU
Since its seasonic he doesnt worry that much=P,those cards use around 290w so thats roughly 900w, then the system use about 150w (normal), so he is on 1050. but we know seasonic has some overhead here=P
Using an Akasa Venom Power 1000w however i can not guarantee anything… im not that familiar with it

[/quote]Oh man! Haha, you are wild! You have 16 GPU’s running, and now you’re getting more! :D
Seriously, my question from earlier on. How are you supplying enough power for all this? I live in an appartment and it has three power groups supply 10A each, so it’s a theoretical max of 3 x 2200-2400w, including power for cooking, vacuum cleaning and such. I’d be out of luck with your setup ;)
But I guess you must have a house with more power groups. Anyway, I would love to see and hear your basement! Care to put a video on youtube? :D
-
have 3x 63Amp in to house.
but im selling of the old cards as i get new oned
so the farm only has 2x16Amp +half an extra 16A -
Sounds nice. Come to think of it, I recall that electrical heating is common in Norway, so that might have something to do with the impressive amount of power going into your house, I guess.
In Denmark, electricity is heavily taxed, so central heating is all most people use.I have to punch in 0.36$ in the calculators *sigh*. It kinda unlevels the playing field a bit for me.

wops. i have to put in 0.15$
