The SuperFlower Leadex 2000 W model is the choice of many workstation integrators (Yangcom S.Korea > here )...just not sure how that monster would work @ 110V...I use Antec HPC Platinum 1300W  PSUs (which have an OClink for dual) for heavy lifting but connect each to a different circuit

For sure. I have 2x20 amp circuits down here in the dungeon. Another 50 amp I am going to have an electrician wire at some point. These 5 M40's are only pulling 1100w out of this 1600w. Iv'e got 2x1000w in the othe mining chassis. I figure I can safely pull 2000w out of this one circuit and be ok.

Great I fell down the banggood rabbit hole!

  

...that happened to me a few weeks back after I ran across their C$5 'universal GPU block'. They actually do have some interesting stuff beyond the 'amusing'

They had me a "free gift for new user" if you spend at least $1. Reminds me of aliexpress.

We've got 15 amp and a select few 30 amp...I did manage to trip the master a few times w/ 4x PSUs on one system w/ Quad-SLI sub-ambient GPUs years back...and when that happens later in the evening, one stumbles around in the dark looking for 'that' - or any - flash light.

 

I have been eyeing that washer/dryer room and its 220V outlet though ...

My wife laughing at your case badges on your panel. Love it!

I also like that full-cover GPU block stuffed behind the panel...

[damric]

How are you supposed to mount this block?

 

Who cares it's $5!

[J7SC_Orion]

not sure as I wouldn't use it on my RTXs...but - thermal tape if it doesn't have any hold down brackets ?

You would need a dedicated 20A circuit.  Single phase house services are 120/240V.  A 20A@120V circuit would be 2400W.

Exactly, but have been told never to exceed 80% of available.

Tell her each badge adds 100w.

Well it didn't lose any water overnight. I siliconed the outside rims twice more.

 

This pump/block is like a cursed item I cannot rid myself. I keep finding myself compelled to mess with it.

 

I found just the right crusty old fan to go on the radiator, and old original sickleflow.

 

I need to let this thermal adhesive dry a little longer on these aluminum chunks, otherwise it's ready to test. Everything is tight asf with zip ties.

Oh one finishing touch!

...speaking of Banggood.com , here's s.th. @Avacado , @Bastiaan_NL , @BWG and their fellow folding enthusiasts would probably like...

That is a massive unit for sure, but for now I'm good on PSU's

We need a live stream right about now to chill. I'm in the dungeon, listening to 80's music and working out the X399 kinks. 

 

@ENTERPRISE would be so proud. 

Now I know where all the good units went... But nice sir, I'd love to join the club soon!

I know that feeling, I've got the same with 2 old CM cases I have. Nothing fits like it should, all hacked up but I'm still using them!

Awww here we go. You read the thread this far, so you have no life. Now watch the videos until your brain turns to dust or this blows up my computer. We can only hope that it will explode so it will spare us from anymore posts in this thread.

 

No leak but it either wasn't really primed or was a weak mount, but as you see a little suck and spit got it going great

 

Oh wow

21.4% Core OC

30.0% VRAM OC (Unlocked AB Slider Max'd)

~ 37C Load after steady state reached with the MAX OC. Flimsy Stock cooler was almost always 88C when we were folding at stock clocks.

Thats great! I love how your lady is so interested in what you doing and helping you.

She's awesome. She's been doing IT since she was 8 years old with her father and now works for AIRBUS as senior support engineer.. She's really strong with networking and good with hardware too, but she lets me build and tweak all her stuff for her because to her that's work and not fun.

 

She's also the biggest gamer in the house. This is her playing last night some AC Odyssey showing off her computer.
