Nothing to do with power supply, i have 2 miners running on original Antminers PSU, some on 1500w EVGA some on 1200w Corsair all still randomly reboot, no overheating issues either.

my guess it's the bug in the software

Ah interesting to see I'm not the only one. I figured it was due to something with the pool or coin it was mining perhaps. It didn't seem to do it the day I tested on litecoinpool.org (only one day though).

I've tested with 1300Watt Antec Platinum and now I'm running the APW3+ on 208v. I don't think there's anything wrong with your PSU ;)

There is a difference between rebooting and the miner performing a mining restart.

The only way to tell if your miner is rebooting itself is to ssh into it and check the system uptime.

You can't go off of the miner status page as to whether or not its rebooting itself because any time the miner does a mining restart, it will reset it's miner status.
