You've got a jupiter and you're begging for donations?

Give the guy a break - he has shown how to set up a Jupiter in a step by step process, thus helping mining newbies like me.

I almost ordered one of these and would have been thankful for this video.

Donate only if you feel the contribution is valuable to you; it's not mandatory.

Agreed, but haters gone hate I guess. It's seems just because you can afford expensive hardware you're no longer allowed to ask for donations for taking the time to make a video for others. It ultimately helped me to at least check the insides because my fan was lose on arrival.

Thanks guys. I think dude was making fun of my large QR code. I found his comment rather funny posting a huge-mungus QR code. LOL! It's all good. I'm on a learning curve here. I no longer want to participate in youtube's monetization program for many reasons. I threw that video together really fast, no rehearsal. It's real life folks, no fluff. I'd post more about it but I think everything's being covered in the forums. I'm glad to help anyone out, donations or not, it doesn't matter. With that said, if I can add any more tips here they are:

- .95 firmware works best for my good miner, .96.1 is better for my lemon
- my miners run better hot, other report cold is better
- ckolivas posted a better version of cgminer, it's helped me get better hashrates.

FW version .98 is supposed to mirror this as I understand it.
- once you get your miner running at maximum hashrate, don't f* with it.
- Get a good surge protector with ethernet/cable filters. Don't let any connections go unfiltered.

I've tried the 0.98 firmware, functionality wise it's good but still only at the 100Gh/s rate but I did see a message about not using a core so thinking about it, running the coreenable firmware again might do the job.

+1 on the surge protectors, make sure anything going into your devices has electrical isolation in the way of surge protectors, you don't want £1500+ worth of equipment going up in smoke because you didn't spend £10 on a surge protector.

So once these devices become obsolete, what hashing rates do you think there new devices will run?
