Title: ATOM (FPGA) Mining Rig Post by: aTg on November 26, 2011, 11:10:05 AM While waiting for the project is completed rph FPGA cluster, I set up an ultra low cost pc.
Surely the price will vary depending on which site you may be, these prices are in Barcelona. http://img851.imageshack.us/img851/1627/19112011891.jpg http://img841.imageshack.us/img841/5297/25112011908.jpg Mini-ITX Atom D525: 75,95 € RAM SODIM 2gb: 15,34 € PowerS ATX 500w: 11,80€ USB Flash 8gb 9€ http://youtu.be/1QvpH0Kk17k Also I put a video on how to build your own DiskOnModule Flash SSD for 9 € http://img402.imageshack.us/img402/8601/25112011914.jpg http://youtu.be/lq5IFn1s3eM The equipment is controlled remotely by VNC, so you do not need any monitor installed which further reduce the cost. The next update will connect a USB FPGA module directly to the motherboard, using the internal connector pins and feeding directly from the ATX. Greetings.

One of my LTC miners is Atom 1.6ghz. It has 2 threads and producing 0.98khash :D Title: Re: ATOM (FPGA) Mining Rig Post by: Transisto on November 28, 2011, 02:18:22 AM Quote The next update will connect a USB FPGA module directly to the motherboard, Step 1 : build a pc Step 2 : build fpga module, Step 3 : plug in usb Why is it I only want details of step two ? Title: Re: ATOM (FPGA) Mining Rig Post by: Transisto on November 28, 2011, 02:22:19 AM I do understand one may need a computer to manage loads of FPGAs,
but these don't have to be power efficient when the point is having 10ghs+ worth of FPGAs. What kind of crap-ass PSU have you gotten ? doesn't look even 80+ Title: Re: ATOM (FPGA) Mining Rig Post by: aTg on March 04, 2012, 09:25:35 PM We add finally ztex FPGA module, you should install silentblocks or silicone caps to amortize the vibrations of the fan. The power connector is directly connected to the ATX power supply.
All equipment consumes 35W and generates 208 mh / s Youtube video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MknBqEbpV04 http://img209.imageshack.us/img209/4351/dsc000652.jpg http://img403.imageshack.us/img403/1808/dsc000642.jpg Title: Re: ATOM (FPGA) Mining Rig Post by: shad on March 05, 2012, 12:47:38 PM my mining setup is one "WZR-HP-AG300H"
costed me ~90€ and arm uses less power then atom ;) i use MPBM with X6500, there is also one guy working on ztex support Title: Re: ATOM (FPGA) Mining Rig Post by: rjk on March 05, 2012, 02:00:04 PM I want to control FPGAs with this. http://www.viaembedded.com/en/products/minipcs/productDetail.jsp?productLine=4&id=1650&tabs=1 Besides the fact that it is almost impossible to get because the pre-order line is so long, yes that is an awesome little computer. I have the single core version, and it runs like a dream.Title: Re: ATOM (FPGA) Mining Rig Post by: Pipesnake on March 05, 2012, 09:46:07 PM my mining setup is one "WZR-HP-AG300H" Can you explain briefly what you did?costed me ~90 and arm uses less power then atom ;) i use MPBM with X6500 Title: Re: ATOM (FPGA) Mining Rig Post by: shad on March 06, 2012, 06:32:45 PM my mining setup is one "WZR-HP-AG300H" Can you explain briefly what you did?costed me ~90€ and arm uses less power then atom ;) i use MPBM with X6500 firsted i installed openWRT seconed => https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=62823.msg736208#msg736208 it works fine with X6500, there is progress on icarus and ztex, but i am not following them because at the moment i only have one X6500 Title: Re: ATOM (FPGA) Mining Rig Post by: Pipesnake on March 06, 2012, 11:33:39 PM Buffalo WRZ-HP-AG300H-EU uses around 40MB-Ram openwrt+miner (i didn't get it running on my linksys wrt54gl because of to few diskspace) install openWRT opkg update opkg install python opkg install libncurses opkg install libncursesw opkg install libusb rmmod ftdi_sio python miner.py bitstream was already installed, will try installing bitstream over openwrt later Truncated and thanks!!

Such a thingy can save you the hassle of ruining your USB thumbdrive and it has 2 USB ports! Title: Re: ATOM (FPGA) Mining Rig Post by: vv01f on March 07, 2012, 11:23:43 AM Such a thingy can save you the hassle of ruining your USB thumbdrive and it has 2 USB ports! Is there a name listed in some online-shops for this one? or just self-soldered?!Title: Re: ATOM (FPGA) Mining Rig Post by: aTg on March 12, 2012, 04:42:44 PM Please move this thread also the FPGA subforum, thanks.

Would something like this be of interest? https://i.imgur.com/CbhYS.jpg I could put it up on Bitmit for you. It would be 1 BTC with free shipping. |
