I used cointracking.info and it worked pretty well unless you have a lot of old bittrex transactions as their API is broken. I imported history from several exchanges and then had to manually change deposits to mining income.

Re: is it safe 3 risers plugged into the same sata cable

I had a sata cable burn up with only 2 risers connected on an older cooler master M2 1000w

all depends on the power draw and the quality of the cables, that one lasted a few months before letting the factory smoke out

the plastic housing, I figured I could just push the blade off cause I couldn't get the o-ring to budge

does anyone sell replacement fans for these things? I have one that started making a helluva noise, still mines though for now

the fans are easy to fix.. take the sticker off the pack and using a needle carefully pull off the rubber o ring holding the shaft in place..
slide the fan part out and using some white lithium grease lube it up and put it back in.. no need to replace the o ring the magnet will hold it in place.



tried this and broke the fan, I bought a fan on amazon but its not as powerful cause the chip gets hotter, anyone know where I can get a direct replacement fan?

can you tell me what is the best fan speed for Giant B to reduce noise?
I’ll see if we can get something official from Baikal about that.

I'd be very interested as well, also what is safe temperature?

I was a little skeptical of https://bittawmart.com/ after ordering a Giant B and getting seemingly no communication about the order at all, turns out I typed my email address wrong, but bittawm was helpful all along and I have my hardware here hashing away, will buy more if my wife doesn't divorce me after hearing how loud this thing is lol

Question to all the Giant B owners out there, what speed do you run the fan at? How loud is it? and What is a safe temperature?

Thanks

Got mine all set up and hashing away. Thanks Bittawm

What do y'all run your fans at? Whats a safe temperature for these, at default its pretty loud but I don't want to hurt it either, running about 40 C or 30 if I open the window.

They're not coming anytime soon, NVIDIA has basically no competition right now, because even if you argue that Vega isn't a steaming pile of crap, you couldn't buy one if you wanted to. If next gen stuff was right around the corner they wouldn't be taking the time to release more iterations of the current gen i.e. 1070ti and the rumored 5gb 1060

is there a list of pools these work with and pools they don't? I'm trying to mine on multipool.us and it connects and shows accepted shares but the site doesn't show any hashrate. Works fine on litecoinpool

I use wifi smart plugs and just set the bios to power on on power loss. If the pool notifies me the miner is down I try teamviewer, if I can't get it I shut the outlet off for a minute and back on, works pretty good and for less than $20

I got a powered hub and put two sticks on it now I get the error Failed to sanity check in lowl-vcom.c windows_usb_get_string():508 but it still seems to work, just not always right away, sometimes I have to start the program several times before it sees both sticks

I got two of these and I'm not sure if I got one unusually good one or one unusually bad one. I'm not using a hub at this point have them each plugged into a separate windows machines, one out of the box stable for days, upped it to 700 and still stable for days, haven't pushed much beyond 700. The other is a different story, doesn't stay hashing for more than at most 2 hours. Stock voltage on both was 0.755. On the problem child I tried adjusting down, had best results around .721 (stayed on for 2 hours) wouldn't even start hashing at anything less than 0.67. I've tried swapping the good one and the not so good one onto various machines and the good one always stays good and the not so good one always drops out. Anything else I should check?
