Re: [ANN] Technobit HEX8A1 - 6/8 chip Coincraft A1 board -999 EUR March delivery
Ok taped out the USB cables but still it crashes...
The complete Hex family...
So ruled out leaking USB power now.
So I try and run Bad Boy & Good Girl together to rule out Hex16B cannot run with Hex8A1
Nope not that either, they both crashed.
So now I'm running Bad Boy on it's own with the family. This is to rule in the ThermalTake 730W PSU is the problem not Bad Boy.
So far so good. I'll leave it running like this until Monday morning. But it looks like the ThermalTake 730W PSU is the problem. Either it cannot handle 450-500W on it's 684W rail, or it's detecting both miners together as some kinds of fault. Looks like I'll be back at Scan in the morning for another PSU.
Any suggestions? Anyone got 2x Hex8A1 running on one PSU? I'm thinking Corsair 750W this time.
Good to see that one is still working Gator
So I see you did add 3 arctic f9 to the good girl, right?
Are they sufficient enough and not that noisy?
Both of them work okay with 3x Arctic F9 fans at 220/880 they don't feel any hotter than a cold cup of tea and you have a pleasant whoosh like leaves blowing in the wind to listen to instead of a vacuum cleaner. They're in a cool North facing room, with no heating on, and no windows open. Bad Boy draws 40W more than Good Girl but does give 20GH extra. He feels like a slightly warmer cup of "hurry up and drink before it goes cold" tea.
If anyone wants to swap a working Hex8A1 for my 6x Hex16B (F9 Fanned 270GH/415W) let me know. I'm after GH/W more than pure hashing power.
I'd be happy to give up 60GH to save 200W.

Some hardware errors, that's probably the caps with bad legs. Still has green and orange light.
Bad Boy hates company!
I'll try and tape out the +5V and Ground in the USB cable and see if that makes him play nice with the others!
