Just got the S2.  Is this the symptom of a bad power supply?
If I have more than 5 boards running, the miner would start and when the screen goes to Antminer and starts hashing, it would last for only a few seconds and turn off.  If I have only 5 boards in there, it would be hashing fine, and the pool stats show that it's hashing around 500.

Get a good Gold or Platinum 1200w or greater PSU and swap out that underpowered garbage Enermax.

No problem with my Enermax, all 10 blades work very well at about 980 Gh/s on pool cex.io.

Could you and all reasonable people please stop using cex.io/ghash.io or all your (and mine) bitcoins will turn into pumpkins-use Eligius or anything else for crying out loud

I don't understand why you tell me not use cex.io/ghash.io ?

Can you explain me what is the problem with cex.io/ghash.io please ?

Best regards

Yes, please get off GHash.io immediately.  

Have you heard of a "51% attack".  Well GHash reached 48% today, so do your part for the Bitcoin network and mine on Eligius, BTCGuild, or Slush's pool instead.

Ok, i understand, i get off GHash.io immediately, going to eligius.st  Smiley

Links to understand :

- Bitcoin Hashrate Distribution : https://blockchain.info/fr/pools?timespan=24hrs
- Bitcoin 51% attack : http://learncryptography.com/51-attack/


Finaly go back to ghash.io
On eligius.st, i have to wait 13 blocks found to be paid, so about 2 days.
On BTC guild, i have to pay fee.
On ghash.io, i'm instantly paid with no fee.

This explain why everybody mine on ghash.io !
