No way.... How did that even happen?? Did you order that off of ebay? Were you able to get a refund?
They were the first batch that were sent out, batches since then have not had the same problems. Just wondering why you bought on ebay? |

Extraordinarily generous donation and much appreciated, thanks!  Donation to you was one of the selling points for me -- Your programming efforts are appreciated by all ~nh +1 I donated to con for helping out with other miner code in the past, in my opinion it doesn't happen nearly enough. |

The reason customers are not posting helpful information about mining, wiring, software and researching how to get these things to work well with the other on this forum is that AMT has been dodging us and not helping us with our problems. If you want to cut the crap, address the problems with people not getting their miners, parts, boards etc.. How can we help each other if we have no working equipment. Believe me, I want to work together with everyone to get the technical problems fixed, and we can all start to mine bitcoins finally. We are given no choice but to continue to post about non-technical issues. Once the non-technical issues are resolved, this board will be a much better place and AMT will be in a better position to sell chips, miners, hosting etc.
This forum for better or worse is a marketing gateway to profitability for businesses looking to sell miners. The validation from the community is what can make or break this business. It certainly puts the power in the consumers hands to determine the fate of these companies. AMT needs this forum at this point to survive. They COULD turn it around with a bit of work and some good will/faith efforts to help users out. That would go a long way towards establishing what is already a pretty tarnished reputation. Everyone here is dealing with something or other as a result of this. We all just want results. For those with miners, some of us got duds....some of us got partially working duds, and the truly lucky ones got actual working hardware. But AMT is saying they got something coming to address these problems. Let's hope this happens. At this point its fair that people are skeptical and just want what they paid for or their money back. That is just a normal reaction to lack of communication. I think you overestimate the importance of this forum. I think it contributes somewhat to sales but I think that its relatively small fry to what these companies are doing in overall unit sales (note I didn't say deliveries) |

well which miner? s-1's or other types of miners.
If you want to make s-1's quieter it can be done a few ways.
It's a Dragon 1 Ths but applies to Avalon 2 miners too. Anybody changed their fans? The problem is that any fan that pushes 100CFM of air is going to make a lot of noise just moving the air around, and if there are metal parts in front of or behind the aiflow then the air is going to make noise moving over those parts (grills, heatsinks etc) You can't make these things "silent" without using slower fans which will make them overheat. All you can do is maybe get a different type of fan whine noise (higher or lower pitch) that will help lower the decibels by a few percent which may or may not make it bearable. What you want is high CFM fans, that have good static pressure, very similar to what you want attached to a heatsink on a cpu cooler or on radiators if water cooling. Add to the fact that they often need to be PWM fans (4 pin) so their speed can be controlled and there isn't alot of choice out there. Here are a couple of 120mm fans that I would reccomend, but as I said personal preference may play a part in the "type" of sound that you would consider annoying. Coolermaster JetFlo R4-JFNP-20PK-R1 (Dark, No LED)Fan Speed 800-2000 RPM (PWM) ± 10%; w/ silent adapter: 1600/1200 RPM (fixed) Air Flow 95 CFM ± 10% Air Pressure 2.72 mmH2O ± 10% Life Expectancy 160,000 hrs Noise Level 19 dBA (1200 RPM with included silent mode adapter) 28 dBA (1600 RPM with included silent mode adapter) 12-36 dBA (PWM) Air Series SP120 High Performance Edition High Static Pressure 120mm Fan CO-9050007-WWAirflow 62.74 CFM Static Pressure 3.1 mm/H20 Sound Level 35 dBA Speed 2350 RPM Scythe Grand Flex PWM SM1225GF12SH-PFan Speed: 600 ± 250 rpm ~ 2.400 rpm ± 10% Noise Level: 13,5 ~ 39,5 dBA Air Flow: 24,2 ~ 96,8 CFM / 41,1 ~ 164,4 m³/h Static Pressure: 0,28 ~ 4,55 mmH²O / 2,75 ~ 44,62 Pa Then there are 38mm fans which are all similar to the ones already installed in many mining machines. |

Hi guys.
I got my new Dragon miner recently. The fans are a little noisy and one is not cooling as good as the other.
I changed to Akasa Viper fans but they run really slow and are not controlled by the temperature.
So I bought 2 Akasa 4-pin fans and they too are not being controlled by the miner.
Any recommendations or advice? Thanks in advance.
I used some Coolermaster Jetflo to good effect, around 95CFM and good static pressure. |

There is any reliable A1 chips source at a decent price?
Maybe do what the Chinese do and approach Innosilicon direct? |

no, S2 is lowest, because everyone got a truckload of coupons ^^
+1 $2199 for S2 for anyone with a token which is how they support their previous customers. Thats the business model you have to compete with. |

Rather quote myself I am still trying to dig up more people to chip for a few more SP30's that we will be hosting in Norway. I am up for anything that gives the small guy a kick at the cat.
Can you send me any info? Drop me an email we will be ready in late May for this but we are keen on beta testing soon. Done |

It's interesting but I see bitmine having alot of the same issues AMT has been having. Altho it seems less so. Refunds issues, delivery issues, all of the same. Like I said....seems like anything/anyone using A1's designs is having a ton of issues. Companies using other chips seem to be ok in terms of delivery. Something worth noting if you are looking for vendors. Just seeing a common thread here with the hardware is all. There is this race for a 28nm process, but at the same time with all the problems, it almost seems like the stable and already mature 55nm process or 40nm chips based solutions are better at this point to go with. They work they are stable....and most of all they are shipping and largely on time.
Realy My technobit boards A1 are working non stop. And same is happening to other A1 hex8/hex4 technobit clients So do not speak bulshit please. You can always asume that everyone has issues but facts are different Never tried designing a higher density packaged version of those stand-alone boards have ya?  Sure the A1 chips can run but making things run in a 1 board setting is entirely different than making a *system* of them work. ALL of the system builders are having the same issues simply because they had not planned on the chip being so off advertised spec when it was finally placed in their hands to do something with. I don't recall the Dragon Systems having trouble? The Technobit boards appear to work. It may be worth the effort to remove the cointcraft A1 chips from those bad AMT boards and sending them over to Technobit to get a new system. Drastic, but what other choice do we have? Exactly the problem is not with the A1 chip its with the boards designed to run it. Innosilicon had an agreement with bitmine that bitmine would have exclusive rights for 6 months, either outside of China or globally I don't know the ins and outs, but bitmine dropped the ball on getting their product to market in time because they had the worst designed circuitboards and poorly chosen components and basically didn't know what the hell they were doing. I think AMT also suffered because of this as they were using bitmine designs manufactured in the US. As the deadline drew close for the exclusivity period to end the Chinese companies like Dragon started producing their own boards, but much better boards because they know what the hell they are doing of course, from what I understand they even helped bitmine by providing them with design and component reccomendations to fix the bitmine board problems. But it was too late. The deadline expired and before bitmine or AMT could even start to look at getting stuff out the door the Chinese started production. Game over. In the mean time Technobit in Europe managed to produce circuitboards, albeit with less A1 chips on them, that worked in smaller application (up to 240MH) without issue. Thats my take on whats happened from what I have seen and heard from various sources. |

Mid 50's. I have recently moved it to a different room/circuit and that's when the problem started. But the temps haven't increased.
Interesting, I've never been over 52 o (usually around 50) and my psu is doing fine, perhaps it's the temp that's causing it, I'm not sure what others are running at. With the cutoff at 80 o one would expect it to handle high temps, but maybe the psu is struggling. Also, if you've changed it to a different circuit, I'd expect it to trip at your breaker box, not at the psu if that was the problem. Some of mine are hitting above 60°C |

How the fuck did you come up with the name Spondoolies?
A combination of sponge and doolies?
A combination of spongedoo and lies ?
A combination of spondo and oolies?
in the UK and probably some other english speaking countries, Spondoolies is a slang term for Cash & Money.. like Dosh, Wad and Wonga. In America you also have slang terms for cash & money... like Green, Bucks, Dough, Smackers, etc... every country has some of their own slang terms for money |

so if we got super jups we dont get a third batch neppy? is this right?  is this madness i am reading right? Nope because you got it 3 months earlier can they do this, i mean if you are a private batch neppy buyer and convert your order to super jup SURELY you should still receive the same bonus, they have clearly stated that if you are part of those orders you get double right? someone that is super amazing come and reply to this and tell me what I want to hear. tell me they cannot do this Yes if you wanted to get the extra Neptune you should have stuck it out and waited like a good boy, instead you chickened out and went for the early hashrate option. You do realise that 3TH now is better than 6 TH in August right? |

I have (5) S2 sitting here and I need some help on setting them up. Specifically, how do I
1) set up antminer and make it start mining
2) create a wallet and have antminer start filling my wallet with bitcoins
Download a wallet software like Multibit, first then create a wallet and then use the wallet address to start mining at a pool such as Eligius. Here is a good guide for setup: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=518205.0 |

Did someone really order 37 today?  Yes. 35 full payment and 2 with the Neptune offer with down payment of $3k and the rest later when he gets his refund. (i hope he won't mind disclosing this) In the last 24 hours there were more than 20% units reserved when comparing to the whole Group Buy. Maybe i should've liaised for the SP10 limit to just 500 units... No harm in asking I wouldn't stretch it out any more though, ppl might get peeved. Well he is anonymous anyway so no harm done there. The blockchain is public after all No I mean "No harm in asking" for the SP10 limit to be @500 And ppl might get peeved if you continue to extend the GB willynilly. |
