lulz

I'm quite sure that Evan has more important things to do than sit around and read useless comments.

excellent, thanks props

anyone know a p2p00l that's on the correct fork?

DRK/BTC was just removed from Cryptsy

thanks wiz

One of my addresses has been waiting 3 weeks and it's not even on the list.

Good luck.

I also have been wondering about NMC. It's been months since my last payout...

But that's not my main concern for coming in today.

How long does it take for a manual payout? I'm trying to resolve some issues with my miner and it's been in manual payout mode for at least 3 days now.

Anyone have any idea?

This may be a silly request, but, is there a way to have bfgminer reset after a given period of time?

Because of my location, I'm have some issues with pool access and it would be handy to have bfg reset itself to ensure connectivity.

I'm scratching my head after reading through all the readme's and searching online.

Any thoughts? Something I've missed?

Excellent to hear! I am very interested in how Myriad does this as well and how it will affect a coins evolution.

With the current price of BTC, I'd much rather buy the 6BTC for this price of 2 S1's

Here's a good news update!

After adding some thermal paste and allowing it to cure, I've actually achieved speeds just over the rated 5ghs. So stoked! 
This is good news for anyone who has the same issue.

Now if only I could add a few more chips to it and run it off the same PSU.

The 280X is essentially a rebadged 7950. So they are basically the same cards. The 280X uses more power to achieve the same mining speeds, so the only question you should have is the price of the cards. Whichever is cheapest is your answer.

Wow, those hardware errors are all over the place. WTF is BFL doing when they assemble these things?

"One binned, one shite. One binned, one shite.."

For less than $200 I got my APC Back-UPS Pro 1000. PowerChute says I have 9 mins and am using 420w. That's heavy video editing, OC AMD 8320, 24" IPS monitor, 14TB of raid storage/scratch drives, my JillyJally, fans and stereo. While not under heavy load I have about 40 mins.
The Pro 1000 has AVR and though I've only had issue with a brown-out once in the last 6 months.
For the price of a single 240gb SSD I have peace of mind that my system can shut down properly and that it's protected from noise and dirt frequencies.

I can't stress enough how invaluable my UPS is to me. I have about $10,000 connected to it. $200 is nothing compared to system loss or data loss..

Silly cannot even begin to describe the person who invests a crap ton of money into hardware and doesn't protect.

If you're only thinking about the power loss and not the protection, think about it this way..

UPS for loss of power is like AAA for your car
UPS for protection is like insurance for your car

How many people drive their car without insurance but yet have AAA?

BFL is just trying to dump all their obsolete hardware on the market before they introduce their new line. Only a sucker would buy old tech at a discount when the new tech will make it obsolete. There's no ROI.
The absolute hilarity of it all is their cloud hashing. BTC will have to increase dramatically in value just to break even on the yearly contract.
Homebrew FTW!

I've read similar. This makes me wonder if there's something wrong with mine. Plus the fact that it doesn't hash at what it was rated to. 

Where'd you all get those photos of me

First I want say a quick 'hello' to everyone, it's been a long time since I posted, but I'm sure glad the forum is here when I need it.

So, getting down to business..

I received my little JillyJally back in late November, (mid-April order, sans upgrade) and to my dismay, it would never reach 5gh/s, it averaged about 4.7. Things were going well with it and it was hashing along fine for about 2 months without major issue. Valentines Day I noticed that the hashrate started to drop down to 4.5 (I love you too BFL), but I didn't think much of it at the time. Given that 4.5 is still within the 10% range of variance, I simply chalked it up to getting the bare minimum from my order. Yippee!!
For almost a month it had been running pretty smoothly at 4.5 and then over the past week I've noticed that it's dropped again and now sits around 4.25. All along the temps have been around 44C and HW errors around 5%, which from my research is about normal. And oh yes, from day 1 I have had the outer casing removed, but top and bottom plates are still on and switched the fan to blow downward, as per the research I did before my unit was shipped.
Today I was a little frustrated knowing that I was supposed to get a Jally with a 10% variance from 5gh/s and my unit is now more than 10%. Grrr.. So I decided to shut her down and check her out, given that I haven't touched her in a few months.
Even before I had her unplugged I noticed that my heatsink was loose and was like "WTF?" So I popped the feet off, grabbed a torx and took it apart to tighten it up. And Ughhhhh!!! 
The screws holding the PCB to the heatsink were completely loose. The thing wobbled like my grandmother behind the wheel. So, being curious if the chip(s) were damaged, I pulled out the screws and wanted to check it out.
Stupid ZAIRA (292 or 274) or whomever put my unit together didn't use any thermal paste. SRSLY WTF? Is this normal? Two chips. No paste. WTF?

I had some thermal paste leftover from building my Hackintosh, so I put a dab of paste on each and put her back together. But I still don't get close to my original 4.7gh/s. I didn't see any damage to the chips or anything else during my inspection. I do however get close to the previous 4.5gh/s with 4.41gh/s

As with the consensus, I'm very unimpressed with BFL. Does anyone have experience with RMA their sub-par Jallies?
