I didn't see the announcement anywhere else (I missed it buried in the linked post above despite a forum and google search), so I posted it here. New hardware is always exciting, I'm excited to see what people are able to do with this new chip, but I guess this thread isn't necessary if all the pertinent info and reports will be posted in the above linked thread..

Remember aluminium or copper is way better than thermal paste to transmit heat.
Yes, but how are you going to get aluminum/copper into the microscopic surface divots on a microchip? That's thermal paste's job. If people understood the function of thermal paste they wouldn't heap gobs of it onto everything like they're making paper mache. |

It's better to be proactive than reactive, there's a ton of discussion about the "why" already out there.

I wasn't even thinking about electrical service, just the practicality of where to put all the hardware. But the two are pretty much the same thing for the home miner, since you'll reach the limits of home space about the time you reach the limits of your electrical service.

On the mobile app when you log in the field where you input the user name "remembers" things you typed into it previously; if you tap in that field a drop down menu appears showing all your previous entries, i.e. user names. Is there a way to clear this data? I cannot figure out how to do it.

Why re-paste if you're going to put four times as much on as was there to begin with? You put way, way, way too much paste on.

Until next gen hardware comes out, we probably would only expect nominal difficulty increases right?
I'm expecting nominal difficulty decreases, actually. |

Do the have legal cannabis in Switzerland?
No?
This study is wrong.

Yup. With the current hardware I would say the upper limit of a "home setup" would be about 10TH/s, where 1TH/s would be an average home setup. My little mine pumps out 0.8TH/s.  |

http://cryptomining-blog.com/4708-sfards-now-offering-sf3301-sample-chips-and-development-boards/ Thew new ASIC manufacturer SFARDS is now offering SF3301 sample chips for people interested in building their own miners using the dual-mining SHA-256 and Scrypt ASIC chips. The price is currently set at $200 USD per a pack of 2 SF3301 chips. Alternatively you can also purchase a sample Development board set that includes one dev board with a single SF3301 chip, two power supply boards, radiator and fan at a price of $400 USD. The prices are pretty high and do not include shipping, but do note that these are sample chips and development boards for people that want to test what the SFARDS SF3301 chips are capable of or make their own miners based on the chips. The actual volume prices of the chips and the miners based on them should be lower, or they will be pointless… Dev Main Board: – SF3301: 1 chip – Heatsink: heatsink & 12mmx12mm fan – FBB Voltage: +/- 0~1.0V – Communication Interface: RS232 / TTL Dev Power Supply Board: – Output Voltage Range: 0.5~1.6V – Voltage Step: 6.25mV – Max Current: 120A  I'm curious to see some test results, any thoughts what type of miner these chips will be used in?

Thanks, also i have pointed my s3 at this pool in the past and have done so again they no longer display best share and they did in the past, is that a bitmain firmware issue or isit time to park them  Best Share doesn't matter as long as it's submitting work at the expected hash rate. The old Bitmain cause is if it mines on a power of 2 difficulty. e.g. if it is mining 512 diff shares. Not sure if they tried to fix it and broke it more or not  If it matters to you, try using a different worker (e.g. username.s3) and set the mining diff to 515 in the web interface (Workers->Management) after it starts mining with the new worker name, to see if that helps. Does that bug only affect bestshare display? |

You'd be hard pressed to find anyone with a "home setup" pumping out over 300TH/s.

No, the web interface shows the package version, which of course doesn't change when you replace the cgminer binary. Looking very much forward to updated cgminer for my S3+, keep up the solid work, ck & Kano!
S2 is in the works now, the S3 is after that and will be more effort than the S1 and S2 combined That's what I figured, but wanted to double check. Thanks for including the API version check instructions, makes me feel better to verify that I did it correctly. Good luck with S2 and S3, sorry to hear S3 is going to be so much work, hopefully it's worth it! |

It's better to have signatures turned off by default and the user would have to explicitly turn them on if they wanted to see all that junk.
First thing I do when I sign up for a forum is turn off signatures.
I disagree. People put useful things in their signatures too like PGP key, Bitcoin address etc... Signature should be enabled by default. If you don't like specific signatures, hopefully, what BadBear suggested will be added. I'm not denying that people put useful things in their signatures. But there's no need to enable them by default. You can view a persons signature from their profile page. There's absolutely no information in a signature that is needed to be displayed every post. It's purely a vanity move (or advertising). Any information that is important in a signature can be viewed from the profile page when it's needed. For those people that like to see signatures, they could enable them. There's no reason to have signatures enabled by default and it would solve the divide between those who don't want advertising in signatures and those who do... that way, you can have whatever you want in a signature and only those people that decide they want to be subjected to them will be. But how many advertisers are going to pay for signature space on a forum that defaults to not displaying signatures? I think that would effectively kill signature ads. |

They're all puppets of their corporate sponsors, it doesn't matter what candidate is put in front of "the people". When you can only choose from 1 2 or 3 then it's really not a choice at all.

Don't forget to throw in a side of Capitalism. When a Corporation can vote with its wallet as much as an individual, I'm not sure what people expect to happen.

Their recent statement that expending anything on support of S1/S2/S3 is a waste of money even though they are the basis by which they became one of the largest companies in bitcoin and most of that hardware is still out there - a lot of it not even 12 months old.
They recently offered the exact same "waste of money" as a reward during their DDOS attack. Hmm, fund useful development for thousands of people to benefit from, or offer "a reward"? Thankfully an anonymous benefactor stepped up in this case. |
