It is a "manufacturer trustworthiness thread", interpret that how you will.

What it ISN'T however,
1) is a resource that can be tampered with just because one company is anxious to get their 100 rating faster than the system allows, for motives that are NDA'ed and not able to be revealed.
2) is a resource that can be swayed to expel a perfectly legitimate company simply because a competitor determines that they don't fit on the list.

I'll take whatever shit anyone wants to throw at me but I hold myself to ethical and moral standards that aren't compatible with 'corporate pressure'.

I did not, a forum administrator did. Unfortunately it seems that by the administrator in question not showing their face, you're instead blaming me.... great.


And while I respect that you might be under stress or annoyed by the matters which we can't speak about on the forums, I too am dismayed by you turning this needlessly personal.

Yeah we'll never cover all the reasons by speculating, or by trying to make workarounds. Maybe they're coming to one of my guides / the forums for the first time via Google, maybe they're embarrassed. Whatever the reasons, we can't simply block all newbies from PMing.

Multiple people have said now, that's just not true. If I was included within the many people who made a report, or not, or was dead, those threads would have still have been deleted.

On it.

As I said above, your concentrating on me when I have absolutely nothing to do with it. If I'd gone to bed a bit earlier and not reported the one post, we'd STILL be waking up to this meta thread because your threads STILL would have been deleted.

A mod still would have attended and done the same due to other reports, or a few hours later a patrolling mod would have seen them and done the same.


That's not cool

I did?

Bitfury sold gear 6 weeks ago? Up until 6 weeks ago they sold the BF3500, yes.
Where? [If to where] Globally [If from where] Bitfury.org when you contact them
To who? Anyone with enough money.
A retail consumer/small miner? I don't see how that's relevant to my thread.

Forcing someone to post for the sake of posting will likely feed the other forum issues of low quality / spam. Also that user would then have to wait 10 minutes before being able to PM me.

What LEDs are you getting on the individual boards? Are the mini usb cables definitely plugged in well from each board to the hub?

I only had the winusb driver issue when I was running a new R-box at the same time, not seen it in isolation before.


Will see whats going on with that.

I reported one post of 6 threads, alongside many, many others. You posted / had something posted in an inappropriate form (as mentioned by 3 admins now) and so it was removed.
I'm not sure why that is on me...

If you leave auto voltage on I'm not actually sure what will happen to the final voltage, or if the 8000 will just act as a starting voltage.

Cooling isn't there just for the chips, so if you're saying that its okay that the other components are too hot because the chips themselves are cool, you're gonna have a bad time.

To answer your other statement, we don't usually see temperatures reflected in those other stats anyway. Plenty of people using low RPM fans run at similar temps without any noticeable effect on the telemetry.

The irony of Bick choosing to use most hated character on a reality TV show to post his view

Well, yes you did, both of these are older than the post you quoted (at the bottom)

True, but then anyone else selling legitimate digital goods (including some of my stuff even if it is low traffic) would still be back to square 1. The problem isn't being caused by digital goods, its being caused by domains and so you can nip the problem entirely in the bud with a domains subforum.

Another viewpoint is there are 100s of platforms specifically designed to auction domain names on, and there appears to be zero interest from anyone on here actually buying them. People are creating these domain threads because they're a free way to advertise.

Because moving what he had to survey monkey still would have led to him deleting those threads. By reporting to mod, users are summoning a mod to decide if the content infringes on forum rules and if so allow them to fix it. Its not on the user's head to fix that.

[Lets head over to meta now]

My problem with that is we have loooong discussions on skype which include all sorts of information we can't talk about publicly. That discussion then ends, and I keep coming on here to find fresh posts provoking the same discussion on the forums, knowing full well that because of the NDA [which I hate, and wouldn't sign again in its previous form] I can't say the same things we just discussed on skype.


I reported ONE post with a 6 word comment, as did other users because it shouldn't have been posted over 6 (which we were later told would turn into 9 threads). I don't see 'moderator' or 'staff' next to my name and I certainly didn't delete your posts.

Someone else is free to try, but they soon realise that its not worth the aggro it causes. Unless you do a Bick and start a monologue to yourself, running round the forum quoting dogie things



Survey monkey, as I use. Might cost $30 if you go over 100 responses but you can always just open a second free one.

'Dual sided' PCBs don't play well with blocks as you'll have to make either a really weirdly shaped one for each board or individual ones for each chip. And then you still have the problem that those board components require airflow, which they won't get due to the jungle of waterblocks. Would be interesting to see but I think a different layout would be easier to work with.

And would a $600 SP20 still be awesome if its water cooled? Adding in watercoolings ads in costs across the board unfortunately.


I agree with the sentiment on spreading chips out, in every product other than the SP20 though. The SP20 has other issues / coexisting hurdles required to get it silent at stock speeds which wouldn't necessarily be solved with a decrease in density. On the SP10, SP30, SP31, SP35 though, almost certainly. Of those only the SP10's fans were actually loud, everything else was PSU noise from using 1U PSUs.
