Re: [OPEN] - GROUP BUY of BITFURY Chips + DRILLBIT SYSTEM mining assembly

Any plans for a "full kit" type miner that does not require a USB connection ?

Buy a Raspberry Pi like everyone else does.

I intend to use my old Dell Mini 9. 5~6W at idle with networking and the screen off, and ~7W with light browser usage and the screen always on but at minimum brightness. Not too shabby for x86 and a first gen Atom on 945GM.

We are also looking at a standalone GUI to give you direct control over various parts of the board, allowing you to easily adjust voltage and overclocking of the chips.

Any word on what platform this software will run on? Windows and/or linux? x86 and/or ARM? Or will it simply rely on cgminer to make those adjustments? I'm just curious as I've never had any luck getting GPU vCore settings for my HD7950's to stick in cgminer. Always needed to use Afterburner/Trixx.

Hi flemeister,

The cgminer program will run under all currently supported OS of cgminer as with other boards.

I have a HP Pavilion running my USB block erupters and everything runs fine.

There will be some custom settings and parameters for the drillbit boards, but you'll be provided with everything you need to get up and running from the day you get your unit, Windows, Linux, Raspberry Pi (which is Linux) and Mac OS.

Just remember the thumbs (1 chip) will require a powered USB hub able to provide 500-900ma per card.
