Hi again guys!
Just ordered a sample of the S9-B3, and obviously the transaction did not get confirmed in time, so my order expired. (Payment sent from Trezor wallet with highest fee possible.)
Do you guys think I need to make another order? Or will Bitmain fix this tomorrow? I don't think its possible to get a transaction sent from a trezor hardware wallet confirmed within an hour..
Also just spent 2 hours signing another transaction.. guess I shouldn't mine to my trezor address!

What is your living situation like is the big question before anything else. If living in a dorm/one bed room I would hate some miners. There are some that are almost quiet but old (example Avalon 4.1). But others are quite loud.
But keep noise in mind when looking at miners if you are going to be living with it right there. I always liked my room quiet for studying before a exam... so a miner never made it in my college rooms.
I have a one bedroom apartment and I intend to run the miner in my living room, heat and noise was certainly a concern of mine after seeing a few videos of people running these incredibly noisy 1600w PSU's. I am also trying to figure out how to make a noise dampening box for the PSU that still provides optimal airflow. You really can't hear the PSU over the S7..  |

Thanks for this, would love to try this on my S7 with a "dead" board!
But, does the S7 use SD card? :O
Edit: You want 20EUR for your firmware, per machine? Nevermind! ^^

So, today I rebooted all 6 of my S7 Batch 1 asic's. They had been up for 50 days since last reboot. They where all hashing before reboot. The thing is, now none of them will hash. I can't see any of the hashingboards under the "Miner Status" tab. I've tried changing PSU's. It's really weird that all of the machines stopped working at the same time.. after a reboot. What to do? :S Any advice would be appreciated  Edit:
When you start or restart cgminer the cgminer.sh script (/etc/init.d/cgminer.sh) checks that the connectivity to 114.114.114.114 is up.
I guess it is a one of bitmain ip.
Today this IP (114.114.114.114) is down, so all of Bitmain gear (S3, S4, S5, and S7) will refuse to restart cgminer if you restart the miner or change your configuration.
If 114.114.114.114 is not up, the cgminer.sh script exits and does not start cgminer.
Seems like 114.114.114.114 is down.. hopefully this is the problem! Edit 2: This was the problem. Upgraded from oct to dec firmware, fixed it. |

Hi, So one of the hashing boards in one of my batch 1 S7 has stopped working, what should I do?   If anyone got any tips/tricks I would appreciate it. It's probably not worth it to send it back to Bitmain for repairs? The shipping cost alone would probably be too much AFAIK. (Norway) |

This just in, Bitfury has tied the release date and sales of their 16nm miners to when Valve releases Half-Life 3, we should see them "any day now"!  As to the solar discussion, when I move here shortly I am going to look into a solar setup, but what it will not be is grid-tied. I don't like the power company telling me what I can and can't do and I'm not going to help their cause by selling them my power that I generated. I'm going to use it all, it's mine mine mine! I could not agree more. Without a grid-tie, you need a huge batterybank. Or are you only going to mine during sun hours? Or are you going to manually connect the miners to the grid when the sun goes down? Batteries are expensive! |

So Batch 3 Available and they I guess they were not selling at $49 as the price is back down to $39.

Why am I not surprised? Also, received my R1 today, the "EU" plug is huge, and ofc it's a plug without ground. So it won't fit in any sockets.. ridiculous.  |

Quick question:
Is it normal for an S7 to run hotter (~8C) than an S5, given the same operating environment?
Crash
Yes, I would call this normal. The S5 uses ~600 watts, the S7 uses ~1200-1400watts. Thats twice the heat output from a same size miner. The S7 is then going to be hotter, given the same input/ambient temperature Hmm.. Should we be worried about this? I'm pretty sold on the S7 and i think it's the phone i'm going to get. I know this sounds funny, but since it's waterproof, can we just wet it to get the temperature down. Not sure if trolling or if you actually believe the S7 is waterproof! Samsung S7? hah |

Thank you Bitfury, sign me up sidehack!

Could you link or PM me the firms you are e-mailing?
I'm looking for something similar myself!
Thanks!

Anyone need any S7 coupons?
I'll give them to you for free if you're a kano miner and actually are going to use them.
I got six available, valued at 0.05BTC

Just want to say that I would be interested in a chip group buy if sidehack could make a miner with them.
I'm also interested in your hosting service, sidehack.

Seems like there was a problem with recording hashrate on 9.feb.
I rented about 300 TH/s for a couple of hours, but it does not show in my hashgraph. I can see it in the shift-tab and shift-graph on the pool's site tho.
Send me a PM if you need more details, thanks!

! Thats exactly what I want to make! But.. 3M won't sell me the fluid! Can you hook me up with Novec 7000? How are your temps with the 7100? It boils at 61C, so I guess they are high? Wouldn't 7000 be better for high powered ASIC chips, as it boils around 32-34C, if I remember correctly? |

Hi punin, thanks for your engagement here.
Just to be totally clear, you are saying that, at this point in time, there are no machines anywhere hashing with your new chip?
I can't help noticing that your share of total hash power increased sharply recently too.
That is correct. We have just a handful of chips right now and all are used for R&D and profiling including occasional rapid unscheduled disassembly as we look for the limits of the chip  . We are expecting the engineering lots in a few weeks time. Luckily our schedule was not affected by the recent Taiwan earthquake. Our total hash power has increased due to our Gldani immersion cooling datacenter getting to full capacity. Thank you for being active in the community punin, it's appreciated. I got a small question to ask, are you using Novec 7000 fluid in your immersion tanks? If yes, then awesome. If-else, then what? Thanks again. |
