Can you provide instructions on how to power on this power supply as stand alone. For example for bitcoin miners.

I use a breakout board from gigampz http://www.gigampz.com/store/p1/Gigampz_for_DPS-800GBA.htmlWorks GREAT. 2 ant miner S1s running off this supply. No complaints at all.

Check out the Gigampz breakout board it is specifically made to work with this supply and bitcoin mining. You can get one from Gigampz.com.

Dont do it. You will use way more power than it is worth. Mine BTCD. bitcoin dark. that will barely break even on power consumption. Now if you need a nice paperweight or door stop, by all means!

Just check your space for the card. This is a physically imposing card which corrects direct to your power source, so also be sure you have existing power lines off your power supply to enable easy hook up. If you don't have the line in place, you can hook it up of course, it just takes more playing around. But the main issue is simply fitting the card in your case. Good luck. We do love its performance.

Not sure why you would want/need to, but sure, you could use a PSU instead of the supplied power. I have yet to use anything but the supplied PS.

I've been using it for awhile now with no issues. I've not seen or found anything myself while using this power supply to suggest it isn't compatible with this core setup. Had a friend who is A+ cert as well as a MSCE cert help me pick it out for my PC. Hope this helps!

You need to use a computer power supply, or at least that is the easiest way. A 4 pin graphics card power adapter is working awesome for me. Your blade should have come with a green "molex adapter" that you secure the wires from the power supply into. Here is an in depth guide on how to set it up, it is the best one out there: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=352658.0

I am using 400W power supply with this card and it works just fine. This card has pretty low power requirement especially since it has no cooling fans. This card is designed to be fully fanless by using bigger heat sinks. I mainly used it for the good performance, smaller profile and fanless design. Please let me know if you have further questions.

I gave it to my computer guy. But I remember him saying I needed a new power supply to run it. Sorry I wasn't more help.

No, it won't be able to power up your system, it's very inefficient and quality in general is not so great, I would only use it for very cheap setup where noise level is not a concern and your just trying to find the cheapest possible psu that will last for your needs, I have this psu on my uncles pc and with no graphics card, pentium 4 630 CPU, 1 DVD drive, 1 hdd and the fan is pretty loud, I don't know if that's from the efficiency being so bad and or the quality of the psu in general is just not good, it's been powering his setup for like a year but then again his pc doesn't consume much power on the first place

power's there, but you'd probably be better off just getting a 36v psu separate. A big buck/boost on this will either dirty up your power if you have other 12v devices on it, or be a loss in efficiency. I've used this with bucks to take it down to 5 to provide 12 and 5v with this. haven't gone up with it.

search for LCD7788 12v 6a Adapter Power Supply for LCD Monitor with Power Cord. This will power 1 gridseed in Bitcoin mode or several (8 I think) in litecoin (scrypt) mode using a 4-Way Gridseed Power Splitter (search B00JG7HO52)

I have mine connected by pci-e 2 however a 400+W PSU is suggested unless you want to under clock and under volt

Just plug it into the PCI express slot. Being fanless, it will receive enough power from the motherboard and not require direct connection to the power supply.

Yes it does ... In fact it's probably just about the best PSU on the market whether you are just gaming or doing something critical like Bitcoin or Litecoin mining. I build custom Altcoin Miners and run many of my own. I have 27 Corsair PSU's currently in operation running dual video cards ... 24 hours a day ... and have never had a single failure or even a glitch from any of my Corsairs.Even under what most folks would consider a heavy load, they don't even break a sweat.

I used a Lepa MaxBron 1000W 80PLUS Bronze Hybrid Modular ATX Power Supply I also ran r9 280, plus all the normal computer parts. Hope this out

Yes you can. I hope you have a good enough PSU to suffice the power consumption of those babies. A 850w PSU will do nicely!
