Don't worry about the angry mob, lol. Obviously there are Monarchs in the wild and people are actually mining with them, myself included. So please continue to share your experiences so others may learn from you or perhaps offer some help.

Indeed the few people who own Monarchs should feel a bit obligated to share their experiences and that's why I'm here. When I wrote "I'm soon done" I meant that I was done with the intensive troubleshooting and testing phase. There's no real need for it as I've reached a certain comfort zone. No imminent danger in sight. Maybe I should replace the coolant with holy water just to be sure.

Lol!

I hate to say it, in fear of jinxing myself, but my two 700GHs Monarchs have been quite reliable. That is, once I figured out for myself (no thanks to BFL) that only the custom BFGMiner 4.2 works at all... and aimed fans at the boards.

Now if I could just find someone who has Monarchs working with an rPi. It's utterly ridiculous these days to have to use a PC as a controller.
