Few pics of my mining gear and setup as it stands today. More being added shortly.

Its a hot side cold side setup.

Miners intake from the cold and exhaust into the hot side via sound lowering baffle box.

Hot side air is controlled by thermostat controlled exhaust fans that kick into use as needed to regulate temperatures.

Many months of 24/7 operation with this setup with happy miners and temps.

Hot side doubles as storage and also a good place to spray some car panels

guys. where to download the wallet?
and which coin is now valid? HTML or HTML5
which miner to use?
where is it traded?

HTML is a new coin.
where to get it?

Hi community,
I turn to you as I need some help if possible.
I have an Antimner a3 and one of the boards is not working. Tried changing power, moving back and forth but always the one in the middle (board 2) do not work. Tried booting the Antimner only with it connected also did not work.
Sometimes the board will not show at all, sometimes (when I lower to 550 )will show with few Asics but all XXXX XXXXXXXX.
Tried factory reset few times, tried power off/on, restart .... none of it changed anything.

Any ideas if there is any chance I can fix this other then sending back to Bitmain?

p.s. if anyone manages to help me to solve this will permanently mine for you for a day.

Sorry for repost, but we have so many A3 threads (hey mods! unify threads! )

For those interested in A3s (all of them) dropping hashrate at the same time, in all pools, there is a channel discussing that in the unofficial sia discord (https://discord.gg/EVn3HPK). So far the theory is that is caused by some blocks, probably a bug in the A3s. The issue lasts until a block is found and they go back to normal. Boards restart when mining these problematic blocks and fans stay at 100% after that... Very weird.

My experience with the A3: Total of 4 purchased direct from Bitmain. All are overclocked by +668, running in a 2-car garage with the door closed and zero ventilation, along with 4 other ASICs and 1080 Ti x16 GPUs. Mining non-stop since January 27th with zero reboots, averaging > 900 GH/s per A3. Have no choice but to give it 5/5 stars so far.


Could be because of the clean power: all are fed dedicated 220V 30A, 2 units are using EVGA 1600W T2, rest are on AW3++. Also keep the units low to the ground where the cool air stays, tho the garage stays around 90F+ (outside temps are 50F). Bitmain says operating temps max out at 104F, so fine solution until Spring/Summer.

I could make a guess that they put a lot of units online over the weekend for testing. There would be no other reason why the difficulty would keep climbing over late Saturday and all of Sunday. The last of the first batch shipments landed at peoples doors on Friday. Even if a handful were Saturday, no way that justified the levels of difficulty increase that we saw over the weekend. It was parabolic.

Looking for a bit of advice. My A3 antminer is only arriving tomorrow-the joys of living on the western edge of Europe!

Now the real pain is that I've found out today that bitmain only dispatched the Apw3++ psu today (despite numerous tickets requesting that both the psu and miner be shipped together). Anyway I'm looking at another 10 days or so before the psu arrives. Not great.

I have a Corsair HX1000i psu (i.e. 1000W) running on my ethereum rig. My question is, would it possible to use this psu on the antminer a3 and underclock the A3 until the Apw++ arrives? Any advice welcome!

For the price of this miner, $50 a day is pretty solid. You'd be hard pressed to put together a GPU miner for that price that could hit similar numbers. I mean surely you didn't expect the $600 / day rate to last very long, especially with how small the global hash rate was.
