Is there a better place for me to post questions like this? Just wonder if I’m missing something obvious.

Good to know you have good luck with thermaltakes. Which model do you use? What is the rated efficiency? If you believe the specs on this one it looks tough to beat for price and efficiency though. Im not particularly concerned about noise at this point. That ship has sailed ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Interesting. This looks similar in specs and form to some other 1600W PSUs showing up out of china like the Canaan Sorcerer and the DragonMint and I've noticed some other similar ones around. I guess they have a return policy so maybe I'll try it and see if it powers some GPUs or a 741 for a while.

What rates were you looking for?
Under $2 USD per WTT. I'll buy 1,500 at a time with a trusted escrow. I can pay in BTC or ETH.

FYI: I have been buying WTT successfully on exchanges now, but if anyone is selling at a compelling price I'm interested.

I have a rig with four GPUs and three of them are HD 7950. When I upped the clock on the three 7950s, the hash rate went up for two of them and down for one simultaneously. You can see this in the below chart around 12/18 before 4:00am: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fimgur.com%2Fc0QliZa&t=663&c=boZefs6Z_80p_g) I suspect a power issue, but I'm not sure if I should be focused on the PSU power directly connected to the cards or if I should be focused on the PSU power going into the risers. Or both. Can someone save me some trial & error time by pointing me in the right direction if one is more likely to be fruitful? Thanks for your help!

I am interested in buying Giga Watt tokens (WTT).

I'm getting a 502 "Bad Gateway" message when trying to connect to one of my S1's. It's been going on for a month or so and it mines fine (thus I could ignore it this long), and I can access it via SSH, but not the web interface. Any ideas?

Asic Newbie question: Can you direct the local proxy (thus the BE Cube) to mine in other pools too? I keep seeing "Slush's Pool" mentioned everywhere I research but I want to set mine up to mine to my CEX.IO/Ghash.IO pool account. I guess I will be finding out in a few days when my Cube arrives ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Sure you can direct the proxy to any pool. Slush is the guy who wrote it and he defaults the proxy to his pool, but it is very easy to direct it to another pool. Just use the --help option on the command line and look back through this thread to see some configs working with other pools.

I am running Windows 7 Home Premium with SP 1 its the 64bit ed.
Drizzik: This article, seems to be a instructions for turning on and viewing the windows firewall log. Also make sure that you don't have virus scanner or some other utility that might be blocking incoming connections. However, the more I thought about this, it seems even if you see nothing in that log, it won't help determine the cause of the problem. Ultimately, you're dealing with a connection issue. The cube can't talk to the windows box. So maybe the following is a better approach... Use a separate computer to test the getwork protocol directly. You can do this with curl (installed on mac & linux boxes by default, you can install it on windows) on the terminal/command line like so: curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"method":"getwork"}' http://192.168.1.100:10332/
Change 192.168.1.100 to the IP of the windows machine hosting the mining_proxy. On my test machine the output was as follows: {"error": null, "id": 0, "result": {"hash1": "00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000008000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000010000", "data": "00000002fbb9e18a04c77de20bfc9183b2afd4f27cbd1899481de92c00000000000000009734464808d94847d43f39172cf92760269abedc28e5f5192777a43fb5484702533c7fdf1900db9900000000000000800000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000080020000", "target": "0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000ffff00000000", "midstate": "618563166b99fba400046f96377ebf373ff43597bdfecbf3823f37729f1d9eb1"}}
So try that from another machine and see what happens. If the firewall or something else is interfering you won't get that response. You'll probably eventually see a connection error or something similar. If you run into an error, you can troubleshoot the windows firewall or other utility blocking the port or consider installing linux on a cheap box (I recommend ubuntu linux desktop if you aren't a "linux guy") and running the proxy from there. Hope this helps!!

Drizzik: Can you please post a larger screenshot (maybe break that up into three?), the text is coming out too small to see.

Forgive me, but I thought Mac is virus-free?
Mac is most certainly not virus free, but less frequently targeted than Windows so the likelihood of being hit by one is less. The following link is a guide with more info on Mac Malware/viruses: http://www.reedcorner.net/mmg-threats/

Is there a way to setup BFGMiner instead of using the proxy? I've been trying but have had no success. I've got BFG 3.10/x64. Have it working fine with CPU, GPU and an Antminer U1 but can't get it to work with my cube.
Don't use the 64bit version. go to the 32. I did try that one as well and it failed indicating it could not connect to the proxy port xxxx and no devices were found. Tried to manually add them using all and auto and all it found was my graphics card. Update. I think I managed to get it working. Not sure why they weren't communicating before but ..... Shut everything down and made sure the cube was up and running. No other devices/miners were running and started 32bit version of BFG with the http-port option and it just sat there for a while and declared the proxy as dead ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) Verified my pools and ports and restarted BFG from within rather than quitting and restarting and it started requesting work and the cube is showing that it's processing. Yeah!!! Thanks for the help guys! WAIT!!! I wanna know.....how did you do this? I'd like to switch from Slushs proxy to BFGMiner so I can run a different pool. I can't seem to get it to see the Cube. Not sure if it needs a driver or what. Explain plz. You can use slush's proxy with other pools. Just pass in the pool host, user, & password. Something like this: mining_proxy.py -o myStratumPoolHost.com -cu myUser -cp myPassword --getwork-host $GETWORK_LISTEN_HOST --getwork-port $GETWORK_LISTEN_PORT If you have trouble tell me more and maybe I can help.

FYI: I ordered on Saturday March 8th (#424), paid 1.11 per with BTC, and have not yet received shipment nor tracking info.
Okay, got the order -placed on Saturday- today (Friday).

Hi Dogie,
I have the ASIC Cube. Currently it is setup on my Windows-based desktop and it runs great with CGminer and Stratum Proxy w/BTCGuild. I have a Raspberry pi w/Debian. Hubby wants me to connect the the CGminer on the Pi. I have no idea how to use Linux and was wondering if you would be so kind as to give me a detailed, step by step instruction on how to download, install w/extraction, .bat (but I know it's something else on Pi), and run procedure for the CGminer? I know how to do the Cube config page. I just don't know anything else bcuz Linux OS is different. Thank you so much!
Let me know if you still want help with this. I haven't done it on a pi, but I run slush's stratum proxy on linux (debian) with four cubes and don't have any problems. If you're dead set on CGminer, I can't help. I don't use it on linux (although it should work just fine).

I had a shutdown issue for over a month with my Cube. I thought it was total carbage. I wrote someplace back around page 29 a couple months ago and never got a response.
In the interim I discovered a couple things and got my cube to run stably for several weeks at a time:
1) I pulled out the stock fan that came with the unit. I replaced it with a smaller 90mm higher RPM fan at about 2700RPM. The smaller fan works fine for cooling and I used some scotch tape to hold it in place. The fans that shipped with the Cubes were garbage. Mine started failing after a few days. The fan connects right to the voltage sensor, so this causes a lot of trouble. The high RPM fan solves this issue. Half the reason why it shuts down so often is that the sensor senses that the stock fan is too slow. 2) The Cube doesn't like ANY thing else broadcasting to it on the network. It can handle your pool software: BFGminer, or XPTproxy, but that's about it. If you put your unit on a network SWITCH - not a hub, but a switch, it will cut off any network contention that shuts the unit off.
After these two changes, my unit runs for at least a week at a time without issue.
Yep, I've got four on switches without any problem. I have two that don't like to overclock. One shuts all chips off, the other just flips the clock, but these two both run fine in Low clock at ~32ghs. The other two run for weeks at a time overclocked at 38+ghs.

good to know. Thanks. Let us know when you either a) get tracking or b) get the package. I hope they are just SUPER busy and just dont have time to put tracking into the system. Crossing my fingers for a deliver tomorrow... Will do. I should also note, that I've ordered from ninjatech before and received it promptly. So I have no concerns about Ninja's reliability or trustworthiness. I'm sure he's swamped with these lowering prices on a good and available miner.

Yep, I can also confirm that I was able to use free BTC to get GOX BTC via bitcoinbuilder and have the GOX in my account. Now, lets see if a miracle happens and GOX is actually solvent! Or flip it again ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Anyone here using bitcoinbuilder to buy or sell GOX? Anyone care to vouch for the site?
