Sure if you support a viable altcoin, or don't care about anything except profit, but then you belong on a different forum.

S4 can be underclocked to pretty quiet and still around 1.6TH or so. S7-LN is fairly quiet and with an undervolt mod can be made not quite S3 silent but pretty close and still see upwards of 2TH. The same mod can be done on an S7 which, with 3 boards instead of 2, is more dense and so will require higher fan speeds for the same level of cooling.

If my board doesn't work with that supply, there's either something wrong with the supply or something wrong with the board.

The HP 750W, 1200W and 1500W are Common Slot PSUs, which are in no way the same as this 800/1000W (DPS800GBA I believe). A generic board made for Common Slot PSUs won't work for the DPS800, and a DPS800 board won't work for a Common Slot PSU, but my board was made specifically to work with both.

Groovy. I've got some of these in my stickminers museum pile but have never actually run them so I didn't know anything about drivers, just what chip is on 'em.

Looks like an FTDI FT2232HL, so whichever driver is required for that chip.

The four Terminus miners will be shipped out today. ooeygooeygold never got in touch so his bid was cancelled, which shifted the fourth pod back to xhomerx10 who paid promptly.

Seconds 2Pacs are still available. I'd like to get at least $25 from them, since they're fully functional and passed all the same tests, albeit at a bit higher core voltage (typically 1.3-1.35V versus 1.25V) which can change the efficiency a bit. $25 covers materials and labor and puts about $10 in the donation.

Sure. PM me with your info.

Before offering $12 apiece, consider that the material and labor costs for these are exactly the same as the ones I sell for $30 (that everyone else sells for $70) and the goal is not just to recoup the material and labor costs but also to have some left over to toss in the donor pot.

Also consider that I raised the new batch to $33 because material and labor costs have gone up.

That said, $12 apiece is the higher offer I've gotten today.

Y'all seriously underestimate what it takes to make these things, and seriously overestimate my profit margins.

Long story short - offer declined.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and assume nothing's changed in the last four days.

Or, to quote myself,

NotFuzzyWarm has paid up, quantumbit and SchOfMines are communicating. If I don't hear from ooeygooeygold within about 30 hours that fourth pod will default to xhomerx10.

Got about 40 factory-seconds 2Pacs up for grabs too, make an offer if you want some. On those I'll be pocketing material costs and everything else will go to Laura. These sticks have passed all the same tests as the regular stock sticks, but at a higher voltage - anywhere from 1.28 to 1.37V instead of 1.24-1.26V - required for stability or keeping HW errors reasonable.

Alrighty, looks like that's how it panned out.

You four good folks, I'll need the bid total sent to 1BURGERAXHH6Yi6LRybRJK7ybEm5m5HwTr

PM me with the transaction ID and your shipping address and I'll get the pod miners out. Ideally payments should be made within 72 hours. Anything not paid up by Friday afternoon will default to the previous best bid to steal. As soon as all four are paid up I'll drop the USD value in the GoFundMe account linked to in the first, along with anything else that's come in.

Right now we're looking at just shy of $1200, which is pretty awesome thanks y'all very much.

There's still 2Pacs up for grabs as well.

About twelve minutes left, here's the standings:

NotFuzzyWarm - 0.1
ooeygooeygold - 0.11
SchOfMines - 0.123
quantumbit - 0.124

Are you going to stay on topic, or continue to be the most annoying person I've ever dealt with?

Auction ends in 10 hours.

Also let me know if you're interested in some of the "seconds" 2Pacs available.

Any particular reason for closing it so quickly? Have you PMed everyone who posted interest in other threads?

S5 are unregulated; since this is a repair for the regulator it can't be applied to S5.

Yeah, I've been eyeballs-deep in manufacturing since around February and haven't really had much time to put into new designs. Especially since the BM1384 pod took more iterations than intended to be fully functional.

No marked progress since the last update, hence no update.

Wait, so everything in this ancient thread to call out, and that's what you focused on? Or was the quoted post just incidental?

That is not accurate.
