Greetings folks, pretty new here. I just got my avalon 741 over the weekend and am running 2 corsair 650w psu's with no issues...very impressed with ease of setup. I do have a few questions

- Does anyone run their miner without an ethernet hardlined to the router and rely solely on the pi3's wifi? Would give me some flexibility with where my miner sits
- Curious what kind of hashrates you guys are seeing underclocked at -2? I wouldn't mind running mine a little slower for a quieter room.
- Everyone here mostly mining Bitcoin core? I am currently mining on slushpool but have been looking at BTC.com as well for BCH.

Thanks!

My advice... Don't leave Slush. They do the morale thing and mine the real bitcoin. Also, yes, I run Avalon 741's using a PI with CgMiner on it. My PI is plugged into a powerline adapter. For 5 miners, I was getting between 36TH/S and 36.5TH/S and I was running at "-2". Personally, I believe you are not gaining much by NOT running at "-2". Your just using more power for very little gain, plus the fans are louder and heat is higher. I would recommend always running on -2.

Just for comparison, every one of my 741s run around 7.3 TH/s at -2.

At +1, I get, on average, an additional 1 TH/s on each miner.

At 0, I get about an additional 800GH/s on each miner.

With adequate cooling, and BTC/difficulty ratio as it is, it's well worth it IMHO.
