Finnally!

BITMAIN Order Shipped

So they shipped before Jun 20 after all... But I'm a bit upset because of that 77 orders that were sent long time ago. I think it's not fair at all, but anyway, hopefully we will reach ROI in the next 3-4 months.

LOL I don't understand how Bitmain ships these things. I paid like 4 hours after opening the sale and no confirmation yet.. Not speaking about this pre batch of 77 miners.

Because you didn't order in the first 2 hrs....

Has anyone actually confirmed that these are asics and not just a custom PCB with RX570 dies on them?

Some dude on Twitter opened up his Z3 and posted photos of dust found inside

https://twitter.com/KevinMuldoon/status/1002642807889244162

Hard to tell how long it might of been used for since in different areas there are different amounts of dust/dirt.



That's a picture of an s7 IIRC, the picture been around for YEARS at this point

Has there been an asic where batch 1 didn't pay itself off in a reasonable amount of time?

Even the D3s paid themselves off fairly quickly, just not batches 4-5-6...

Easy, just take a look at the Cryptonight ASICs. They in no way paid for themselves since the Monero team was quick to fork.

I hope you seriously don't encourage people to buy these ASICs. They are not what cryptocurrencies were invented for. ASICs turn crypto into a simplistic money making scam.

Most cryptos are money making scams. 0 cares given as long as I make money.

Re: Being careful about how much power you run through power meters

on 19/04/2018, 12:03:46 UTC
THis is why you run 220v. Double the voltage, half the amperage, half the heat from resistance and more efficient.

You are wrong.  The amperage is split in half because there are 2 hot conductors in 240v wiring instead of there only being one in a 120v feed. You are still using the same amount of power.  Watts is Watts.  You cant defy ohms law.   A 120v circuit drawing 20 amps is 2400w and a 240v circuit drawing 10 amps is still 2400w.

Power = E x I (Voltage x current).

So you are using the same amount of power no matter which route (120v or 240v) you take.  Indeed the amps is halved ON THE POWER CONDUCTORS of a 240v wire feed but that wont help since most houses have 120v feeds so a 240v would have to be installed new and obviously could be sized CORRECTLY to avoid any overheating for constant duty.

Go back to school noob.


Double the voltage(P), 1/2 the amperage(I) across the same resistance(R). That IS ohms law.

Wattage is just a measure of power. Power/wattage does not create heat, resistance does.  Half the amperage across a resistance is half the heat. Half the heat = no melted power meter.


The fact he's overloading the circuit is another issue entirely.
You go back to school amateur before you get someone killed.  E=IR is OHMS law, Not P=IR. P=power, E=voltage. Wattage isnt "just a measure a measure of power", It is a direct function of E and I hence the formula  P=EI.  
10A @ 240v is the same as 20A @ 120v. (Ill bet if you multiply 10x240 and 20x120 they both come out to 2400...Watts)  Same 2400w of power.  No less power is consumed on one or the other.  So just because the the current is halved on a 240v circuit but is doubled on a 120v circuit equivalent doesnt save you on anything other than the size of wire needed to handle the current.  The fact that you dont comprehend the fact that watts is watts tells me that you have no idea what you are talking about when it comes to electricity and shouldnt be giving anyone any advice concerning electricity.  Its geniuses such as yourself that end up burning their house down or killing someone with bad "knowledge".
I was an aviation electrician on the F/A18C Hornet in the US Navy, Electrician & Electronic Technician for Eaton Cutler Hammer, Sub contractor for many large manufacturing facilities and have been a technician for the Federal Aviation Administration for 12 years now as a Journeyman Electrician & Electronic Technician.  I take care of a 100kw, 50kw and 37.5Kw standby emergency generator and their switchgear (all 3 phase 208v) among a host of alot more gear that youve never even heard of (VOR Station, MALSR, PAPI and much more).
So what do you do when you arent in your parent's basement, kid?

"Double the voltage(P), 1/2 the amperage(I) across the same resistance(R)"
Really now?  If you double the voltage, current goes up by a factor of 2.  In this case you would need to manipulate ohms law to solve for I which would be I=E/R.   YOU FAIL...Miserably.

Yet you still don't understand how doubling the voltage halves the current in this situation.

Double the voltage, half the current. Half the current, half the heat. Half the heat, no melted power meter.
The only ignorant one here is you. I cant draw it out in crayola for you on here but I guess I can DUMB it down for you.  Doesnt matter that the current is halved because the voltage is doubled (120v)  In a 240v circuit it would be double the voltage of a 120v.
Remember now...Power equals voltage times current.

240v x 10amps is 2400 watts of power
 
The equivalent 120v circuit would be:

120v x 20amps which is still 2400 watts of power.

You are an amateur at best and have no business attempting to teach anyone about electricity. Working at a fast food joint doesnt qualify you to be an electrician.

Google is your friend.

Wattage does not melt wires or connectors. Get it through your thick skull.

My v11.4 just stopped working this morning. Everytime I click to run the .Bat file it loads the settings and then disappears?
Anyone else had this issue?

Gone back to v10.0 for the time being while I investigate.

Re: There is such a thing as Asic miner for Ethereum?

on 14/03/2018, 00:40:03 UTC
to date there is no asic for ethereum. and most likely will never be with an ever-increasing DAG file and pos on the horizon.

There are many scammers out there promoting[ websites that are fake or scams

That is incorrect. Bitmain has been giving information that they have made one, and are working on it. Ethereum is supposed to be ASIC resistant, so an algo change to disable ASICs is supposed to occur but looks like they dont really care if the ASICs come in.

This is incorrect. Bitmain hasn't said a damn thing and never will until they release one.
It is some random Chinese website that said they may be working on one.

If you are waiting for Bitmain to make the announcement then you will hear about it when it is listed for sale. Its basic knowledge that something is being created and done, and even when there are more than 1 website stating specifics into the machine, and even sources that prove that they have been working on it. If you were to read more into it, you can see there is proof that they have been acquiring the RAM required, and producing an ASIC for ethereum. Bitmain does not announce anything until they are up for sale, because they dont want the public to know they have already been using it for months and selling off cleaned up units as brand new.

These 'sources' all all baised on or quote 1 random Chinese propaganda site.
On random source is not proof.

Across 1.5ghs on various rigs I gained ~15-20mhs total going from 11.1 to 11.3.

570 rigs gained 4-5mhs
580 rigs gained 1-2mhs

Not sure why that is...

Just run 11.3

I have 2 x RX580 with 8 Gb (bios mods) and 3 x  RX470 with 8Gb (no BIOS mods) in my rig.

For testing I've choose auto detect -dcri value and miner detect value of 30 for all 5 cards. For RX580 -dcri 30 is the wright choice for best ETH+DCR mining output. But for rx470's -dcri 30 is not the best one, the best one is 24.

I believe the miner is not able to chose best -dcri value for different type of cards in one rig?

However it is a useful option to help find best setup.

Thank you Claymore.

RTFM

Auto DCRI is only for single mining.
