Block!
Nice >2% txn fees on that one too  Yes, over .5 in fees. Got to love those FAT blocks..... Highest we have had was 394067 @ 25.72380807. I think thats the Fattest of them all. For us anyway |

How do I run one of these bad boys in Canada with only 120 Volts?
I run mine off 120V, just use regular ATX PSUs that are single rail. However you do need a dedicated 20A circuit to be safe! I use a 1000W PSU (2 boards) + 650W PSU (1 board). Or get an EVGA 1600. I used a 1300W for a while but it was just too close to the margin for comfort IMNSHO! The huge thing is not to mix PSU's on the same hashing board. So you need to power entire hashing board via 1 PSU. So it has been kinda common for 120 to use two. One that powers two boards, one does other and controller. It can work. I like all in one but that is a lot harder to do in 120v area as evga 1600's are high priced. Compare to 220/240 server PSU's its a huge jump in price. But I still like one PSU for all if at all possible. EVGA G2 1300W PSU............problem solved. Got 3 powering 3 S7 for the past 2 months, no issues. Just buy 2 extra dual PCI-E cables for $40 extra for OEM and cheaper for non OEM cables. I have an extra EVGA G2 1300W PSU at a good price if anyone needs 1. Will include the 2 extra PCI-E cables so you can have 10 connections to the S7 at no additional charge. Just PM me. You can use the single OEM 6pin and buy good Y Splitter on the forum for 3.5$ per. Definitively works for S7's, but some S7 really cap out the PSU, so it might make some people nervous to see 1460W at the wall on their 1300W psu. No problem for the G2's anyways. On a related note, anyone know where to get the short jumper cables for the EVGA 1300 G2? they are the female pins, unlike Corsair 750 that you can jump with a paperclip in the master cable. Are you asking how to jump them? You jump them the same was as every other PSU, pin 4 with any ground. Tho all the EVGA's i've bought in a while comes with the neat adapter that jump 3 and 4. I know how to jump it, but have to use the full 24 pin ATX cable and plug in the jumper module. I was looking at doing this without using the fat 24 pin cable and directly on the PSU. I have one setup like this, but need more of these little jumper cables. See picture.   Oh geez I'm not sure I would like those things. You get the wrong holes and it could be lights out for a very expensive PSU. I did actually wonder though why EVGA didn't make a jumper thingy that plugged straight into the PSU like that instead of making one that required the cables to be plugged into the PSU only to have a cap put on the end of the cables to jumper it. Well, its one time. Just count the holes and put your jumper in the same slots. Never have to mess with it again. I have actually then taped down the jumper cable to the PSU with electrical tape to keep it from coming out. These are great, I just can't find where to get them. Think I found it, was looking for ATX stuff and these are just breadboard type standard jumpers mostly used for Arduino projects. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GSE2S98?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=od_aui_detailpages00 |

I'm looking for the red cables with the female ends on them to use for jumpers, see pictures. Thats what I can't mean to find. One of my PSU's I got used came with one and now I have 8 more PSU's and want to find these jumper cables. |

No Paperclip needed for the EVGA G2. It comes with a connector to keep the PSU turned on without a Motherboard. Easy breezy.
Yes, but you have to use the full ATX cable to use the connector, that a lot of extra cable in tight spots. |

I will probably  damn you HerbPean  Sounds like there is only one left..... Hurry, Hurry. Heck I'd take another but have absolutely no place left to put it, well at least that my wife won't kill me. Already in Garage, Office, Basement, Colo and brothers house. Maybe the shitter? keep your feet warm in the winter..... |

That is scary! Every time we have a restart, DDOS attack etc, we get a block within an hour of being backup!
That is Voodoo magic!

Trust me, i wanted one or two more Rev 2 very badly !
They are quite nice! Since I started mine up last Friday it hasn't had a single hiccup and has stayed within +/- 15GH of 3835 the entire time. Far less babysitting than I'm accustomed to. Yeah they are awesome ! It's insanely impossible to hope for half off from a start price of $1100, but I would double my order at a $550 price right now. A couple weeks of lost time from now and it will not be worth even that much to me. MarkAZ is selling a bunch v1 for 1.9 shipped. Only a few left. I think he moved 50+ units, I picked up 4 of them. Yeah he doesn't ship to Canada tho  That's the best option/price for now but still 700$ US. If you pickup shipping, he can ship to me in NY and I'll reship them to you. I just sent a s5 I sold to Quebec and it was 40USD for UPS standard. My UPS account has a 12% discount. Just putting an option out there for ya. |

Couple of node questions guys:
1) I'm in south eastern Australia: which node should I be pointing to?
2) Why? as in does it matter?
I'd point it to Kano house, he's the closest to you and you would get sub 10ms latency. Ping each node and see whats best, but I think the main kano.is will give you the best response. |

Eligius tried to place 577 transactions into it but we won and placed 1156 transactions in the block. Double the transactions inserted and still won the race!
That's a great point, it's too bad that in close orphan races the number of transactions doesn't factor in. It would be a shame in any case, regardless of who was racing who, to have a block with less transactions beat out a block with more. Agree, some make the argument that it takes to long to fill the block and move on, here we prove it does not take long and still win a race! |

15 mins ago we got another block
okay I see it on blocktrail but not blockchaininfo The block explorers seem to really struggle around the time the orphans hit. Sometimes they may even need manual intervention to keep working it seems... blockchain is showing Eligius as having won that block yet if you click on their block it then says orphan. Regardless, it's our block as all nodes have synced up to ours and confirmed it numerous times since. Our extensive propagation network (and numerous ckpool improvements to distant nodes) may well have paid off on saving that one. Kinda funny that blockchain.info shows Eligius on main page, but click more and shows orphan. Eligius tried to place 577 transactions into it but we won and placed 1156 transactions in the block. Double the transactions inserted and still won the race! Heck, they don't even show the Orphan in their stats and block page, like it never happen.... How do we show their 10PH of miners the truth and get 5PH to move here? |

I want to mention this link https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1357595.0not my gear and the older revision still 1.9 btc for a used avalon6 MarkAz and OgNasty are good people. So if you want the Avalon6 Revision 1 at 1.9 coins it could be better then the Revision 2 at around 2.45 coins. This is why the game can be very hard to play. Some guys or groups are flooding the hashrate as I type. Good luck to all. Been watching blocks last couple days and based on block makers, Bitfury is almost 200ph. Them along with F2 have experienced the fastest growth. I guess production on this 16nm chips is full scale. One could also think that BitFury sold a large order, say 25-25ph to one miner and they pointed to F2 so they don't stick out as a new player. Not many blocks in the "other" or unknown bucket. |

Anyone notice that the last block with a diff of 467,893,222,434 was the highest diff block in the history of the pool? AND took less then 24 hours, gotta love that.

common kano work your magic were at 21 hours and no blocks found
I finally decided to move my farm over from antpool to kano and apparently I stepped into a 23 hour test of patience.  Ok so seriously I have pushed antpool on my youtube channel but as antpool keeps growing the logic to support the smaller pools makes more sense. That being said we all still need to make money so if I am in, I would like to share this with my subscribers. However, for me to use what little influence I have right now can someone maybe give me an higher level overview of how a ckpool works vs say a larger pool like antpool. I read the thread on ckpool last night and it was a bit over my head. I am trying to learn more of the of the inter workings. Thanks in advance for your help! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwoLtAoTpf1e6pRqpwNI54A?view_as=public I have been here since June, started with 30Th and now over 100Th. Tried all the other pools, done a month by month compare and Kano has always won. Now at over 20PH, variance is better but even at 1PH, Kano won over all the others. Also, given the state of BTC today, I will not and would never mine on a Chinese pool, i want BTC to flourish and not get killed of and totally controlled by China. Below is my first payment on Kano. I was here during the Hell 666.666 block and Red October and still did better then anywhere else. Not to mention the support, the forum and CK and Kano, does not get better. Note: Pool was 950th when I started, now we have miners with more hash then that 361844 21/Jun 03:06 24.78767691 248.849G 279hr 48m 34s 1.06PHs 2.64% 6.557G 27.96THs 0.65315985 361170 16/Jun 10:05 24.78482217 248.818G 312hr 13m 33s 950.76THs 0.92% 2.281G 8.72THs 0.22721248 361153 16/Jun 07:23 24.93367120 249.055G 312hr 1m 7s 952.30THs 0.89% 2.209G 8.45THs 0.22116139 |

Hello 300%, have not seen you for a while......... Hope we don't meet again anytime soon.

Very nice design! I know you mentioned non-negotiable but given the next diff of 20%+ and no end in sight along with flat BTC price, I'm interested at 1.5 per miner. Just figured I toss it out there in case you don't get much interest at the 1.9 price.
Thanks for your consideration,

It was a paypal commercial correct? At least I saw the paypal one. I do agree the btc one on youtube is better. Yea, it was PayPal but until the end one would think it was BTC. |
