Parallel Miner HP 1200W Power Supply With PicoPSU Breakout
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 сер 2024
- It's time for me to build my first crypto mining rig, and to save some money I decided to take a chance and buy a power supply from Parallel Miner's to save some money on the build. This power supply is a used HP 1200 Watt server power supply and Parallel Miner's own breakout board that not only has the required 6 pin PCIE connectors, but also has a 180 watt max PicoPSU built into breakout board. This saves you from either wasting power from running a second atx power supply just to power the motherboard and ssd drive, or also cuts down on the amount of wires everywhere if you bought a PicoPSU separately.
This power supply can run on 120V or 240V, but at 120V it's limited to 900 Watts output and the cooling fan will ramp up very quickly. On 240V you can use the full 1200 watts and the cooling fan runs much more quietly.

I was thinking to make breakout like that (for different type of a server psu) with 24 pin power.
But then I've realised it's much better to have basic breakout and 6 pin going to tiny picopsu that sits on top of the 24 pin on the motherboard, it's much cleaner - don't have to have 24 wires going to it and if one thing fails, either breakout or the picopsu, you don't have to replace both.
I made it even tidier by having the 6 pin go to 8 pin cpu header(which has all the 4 pairs bridged) from where one pair of wires is going to this pico psu, so whole mobo running off a 6 pin.
I use a Seperate 250w pico in conjuction with the HP1200w (x6b board)
Is there a way to synchronize both PSUs to start up at the same time because It's sketchy starting the HP first then the Pico knowing that 50% of the board is being unpowered for like 5-20seconds!
Or does the pico start up as soon as it receives power from the hp?
@@AutodidactEngineer No the pico starts when you start the Mobo.
There is no easy way to start the Mobo along with the server PSU.
But don't worry it shouldn't be of an issue
6:32 - Loses finger, and screams louder than the 1200W PSU
Thanks for the video, I have a problem I have a btc-t37 connected with an atx-850 coolermaster with 24pin connector working without problems, I bought a psu dps-1200sb and connected it with a molex cable to the 4 pin break-board, the problem is that when the motherboard starts the psu (1200) starts with a delay of half a second with this my video cards are not recognized, how can I change the connections so that this doesn't happen?
I just bought one and I'm going to attempt to replace the fan with a noctua to reduce the noise. Wish me luck, I'm gonna need it HAHA.
I'm all for noctua but in this case your going to overheat the power supply. The CFM of a noctua 40mm is too low for the power supply.
@@madelectronengineering That's a bummer. Is there anywhere I can find the fan specs for these PSU's? I've searched all over and can't find anything.
Great video! Very informative and pleasant to watch :)
I run a very similar type of power supply but the brand is Liteon. I all but maxed it out on 120v to approx 800 watts (its rated for 900)@ 120v. No fan noise at all. Similar breakout board from parallel miner x11amp. I wonder why Im all but maxing mine out with almost zero fan noise and your set up is similar yet has very loud fan noise. Im no expert but I think something may be wrong with this supply. I support my theory b/c I also run asic miners using the APW3++ power supply , again Im about maxing out its rated output. All 3 have very little fan noise at approx 800 watts even though the PSU is rated at a max of 1000 watts on 120volts. Since this video is over a year old. Can you share how the HP Psu is holding up?

I have 5 Rx 6600 xt i just bought
can i use all 5 on this Psu?
Is that too much on 110 volts
Even on 120VAC, it's probably quieter than the fans on your GPUs (or it can be, depending on how you've configured your GPUs).
possible to connect dual 8pin cpu from that? i need 2x 8pin cpu and also a sata connection
so my breakout board is throwing out 12.4V and my motherboard will not power up, it works fine with normal ATX power supllies, how to i reduce the 12.4 to 12v?
excellent--thank you!
I am running at 12.9v on the 750watt version in order to get 1000watts
very informative, thank you
when looking in the inside of the server PSU do you see some white-looking Glue in yours?? i see some in mine and wondering if that's normal
Yes that's normal.
@@madelectronengineering ok thanks for telling me
I just started watching your videos. Pretty sure I’m going to binge watch your whole channel. 😀
👍
Where did you get this ports board from ?
I did the same with a lot of spare IBM BladeCenter E series powersupplies back in 2012. I think they were like 160Amps on 12Volts (rated at 2000W). Those had separate large fans in the main chassis, so I had to add some separate fans externally. What do you mine?
At the moment ethereum.
Nice work done bro! very useful video. Thanks for sharing it. Keep it up man!
I was wondering to know is it possible to have 2 x HP PSU server 1200w for a rig with 8 x RX580 without having a ATX power supply?
you will need pico adapter (24pin for mother board/cpu/sata)and cable to connect both PSU (or turn them on manually one by one)
How do you give energy to the CPU? You just have to use any 6 pin port?
The 24 pin cable has an 8 pin eps12v connector attached to it.
I purchased a HP server power supply the other day waiting for the breakout board. I’m curious how did you change your voltage?
The power supply auto senses if it's running on 120 or 240v.
@@madelectronengineering Cool thanks for the reply
How did you connect the 4/8 pin for the CPU on the motherboard from the breakout board?
Overall a very informative video! Thank you!
The 24 pin atx connector also has a 4/8 connector on it to power the cpu.
@@madelectronengineering Yeah, but it connects both ways. Which is the correct mode: b/out board to mobo, then the cpu connector, or b/out board directly to cpu?
I had a 1200w psu (I believe the same model) I'm using about 650w on 120v however the fan is very quiet, but the psu is very hot to the touch, is this normal?
yes
just a fire hazard no worries
can you connect motherboard on this PSU as well? and how long did the server PSU lasted?
Yes you can, and I've been using it still to this day with zero issues.
i got question about the fan on this power supply on ide does it run always even the power supply is not under load ?
It always runs but its speed is dependent on its internal temperature and current load on the power supply.
@@madelectronengineering ok thanks for answer i got 1200W HSTNS-PL11 the fan always run too but is slow down completly when i put load about 300w that Strange and the case is little hot on ide run
How do you Power the CPU ? the 6 pin to 8 pin ? same with the GPU?
The power supply/breakout board kit comes with a 24 pin connector, an 8 pin connector, a molex to sata and your choice of pcie 8 pin adapters. So you can power the mobo cpu, a hdd or ssd, and graphics cards/risers
If you use server psu to connect gpu via 6pin to 8pin, what's the max wattage the cable can deliver?
If you upgrade the cables from 18awg to 16awg you can do 150w easily but if you take your time to replace the brass pins with copper ones and the wires with 14awg you can go for 300w no problem(theoretically 120w per pin[120x3] since there are 3, 12v lines each pushing 120w)
At what wattage did your power supply fan turn on? I'm at 582 watts and it doesn't turn on
It should be on at 500 watts, just slow and quiet. Around 700 watts on 120v it'll start to ramp up.
How much was the whole unit including the graphics cards, and how much positive income is it generating per month?
you probably dont care but does any of you know of a trick to get back into an instagram account?
I somehow lost the password. I would love any assistance you can offer me
@Lorenzo Jabari Instablaster =)
@Reid Cain thanks for your reply. I found the site on google and Im in the hacking process now.
I see it takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Reid Cain it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thank you so much, you saved my ass :D
@Lorenzo Jabari No problem :)
Any chance you can show your outlets? Like which 240v outlet you use etc?
Look on my channel for the $20 PDU video.
outro song?
I have 3x RTX 3090 and 1x RTX 3080, Do you think Can I connect 2 server power supply in the same rig?
Thank you. Great video
I would get the 2400 watt version of this unit for 3x 3090 and 1x 3080.
@@madelectronengineering I order a server PDU 1200W 110v, but I don't know I did wrong the GPU doesn't turn on.
@@madelectronengineering but their 2400 doesnt work in US right?
Would you mind taking a decibel reading while the server PSU is connected to 120v?
Sorry I don't have a sound decibel meter.
@@madelectronengineering You can download an app for your phone, but I understand if this request is too much of a pain. Thanks anyway!
id like that too...and as someone said phone apps
How is the exhaust heat compared to a normal atx power supply?
Most of my normal ATX psu exhaust barely warm air at most, the server one exhausts quite hot air, but that makes sense because those are tiny.
What's would be the easiest way to run the psu in 240v Iive in New York city where my house is using 110v
Got an electric dryer or stove? They both normally work on 220-240 volts. Call an electrician.
What plug do i buy tho.. i dont understand..
Very good review man ! What can we do to run it at 240v in a 110v country, do you have a solution for us ? I can't bear that noise at 110v at only 650W charge /-:
I am not from a 110 country, but I believe NEMA sockets for dryers and ovens are 240V if you have the right cable. Alternatively call an electrician to wire you in a 240V service from your panel. Technology Connections on UA-cam did a video called "The US electrical system is not 120V" which is worth watching.
U can actually have an electrician run a 240V in your home. I got 2 separate 240V/20amps in my home for my rigs.
@@BobHannent just watched your yt suggestion. great! thanks for that!
My motherboard won't power up any ideas?
Come hit us up for help in the misfit mining discord, the link is in the video description.
What did you use to go from 120 to 240v?
Check my channel, I posted a video about a cheap 240v pdu.
can you help me too, be quiet! platinium 1200w or hp server 1200/1500w. Which one should I choose?.the most important for me is less power consumption. I'll use 6 or 8 cards rx 570 with btc-t37.
Run them at 240v, go for the 1500 if it works with the breakout board, the extra wattage will give you a little wiggle room.
@@madelectronengineering Thank you
5 3070 is 1200psu enough? I have the same board.
If he has his overclocks locked In and core voltage locked in he should be fine ND by the looks of it he does 😉 he's only running 641 watts
At how many decibels it sounds at 120v compared at 240v? Does anybody knows?
Noise isn't a problem since you can replace the fan with a noctua 40x40x20mm or a cheaper but viable option Sunon Maglev 40x40x38mm
it's not that loud, when the other 8 card's fans are running lol
cute hands
does this run on 220v?
Yes it can run on 240v.
Parallel miner are suck. i bought a pcie raiser. They give me a faulty raiser and it burns my gpu and motherboard pcie slot.
According to Ave, it's "Focus you fuck!" or it keeps going out of focus as yours did.
