Re: Octominer B8PLUS 8 PCIe Slot Mining Board (Motherboard, integrated CPU)

Can anyone help me to convert my Octominer so I can use Oculus rift. I’ve never had virtual reality system and have a few question to multipurpose my mining rig.
Is it better if I use all 8 gpu at same time or can I only use 1?
I want to do the high fidelity Rust virtual reality dance party so it tracks my movement with many sensors so is cpu and 8gb ram good enough?

Version 2 Octominer Motherboard:
How about having it optimized as a virtual reality gaming and image rendering workstation so you can utilize the gpu for different purpose?

i doubt boards like these riserless miner style mobos (octominer/onda boards with 8 full size slots) will ever be very good at VR as the cards are being run with only 1 PCIe lane per card. VR has more traditional gaming type requirements, you would want at least eight PCIe lanes (PCIe x8 or x16) per card to load textures and such. textures loading at a single PCIe lane speed will be too slow.

might be possible to change some slots to use more lanes but that might disable other slots or devices (msata/sata ports maybe)


I also doubt that they will continue manufacturing these boards when GPU mining is almost about to exit. I feel for the company behind this and i can imagine that they've invested a lot of capital into developing these boards.

Hopefully they've been able to recoup at least their initial investment on these octominer boards. It is actually a good product.

Can you elaborate more on your statement that GPU mining is almost about to exit?

Thanks.

1) Since this is lifetime contract what will be mined after all BTCs are mined?
2) What will happen if we do not collect enough money for 5000 S9s?
3) In the future, you will offer hasing power for cloud mining. How will that affect the investors?
4) What happens if other players come on the market, Like Halong Mining with their 16TH miners? Will you bay asics from them?
5) What happens when the asics are outdated but still functional? Will you sell them? If so will the backers have the privilege to bay them off first and at what price? And if you sell them will that be considered as our mutual profit?
6) Why is 20% of profit intended for OPERATING COSTS AND MAINTENANCE? If, you pay electricity 0,03 USD per kWh that is like up to 10% ( with this BTC price). Where another 10% goes for?
Thank you for your understanding.




1. It will start from July 2018.
2. We already passed our soft cap in the first phase. It was 50k. Now whatever we get we will start.
3. We will not offer hashing power, we will offer a share of profit.
4. We will get best ones. Firstly we will provide analysis of all current miners.
5. Yes, we will give such opportunity to our backers.
6. We will upgrade and fix our miners and make better conditions to holding this ASICs. 

TNX for your answers, but I need some clarification. I spouse you are very tired and that is why you didn't answer me everything.

1) What will be mined after all the BTCs are mined? ( I know when you are starting the mining process)
2) Question answered.
3) In the future, you will offer hasing power for cloud mining. How will that affect the investors? ( I understand that in ROCK 2 phase we as investors will receive a share of a profit. My question is regarding the future project,are you planning next project Cloud mining? If, so how that will affect investors from a ROCK2 project?)
4) Question answered.
5) Question answered.
6) Why is 20% of profit intended for OPERATING COSTS AND MAINTENANCE? If, you pay electricity 0,03 USD per kWh that is like up to 10% ( with this BTC price). Where another 10% goes for? ( So, from OPERATING COSTS AND MAINTENANCE, as you explained, you will among other things upgrade and fix our miners? And 20% of profit is intended for DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT, meaning you will use all this money just for buying new ASICs?

Thank you.
