Thx Phil, that's really cheap just to have one as a backup. Will it run on 120 or only 240?

240volt. 
  if you are 120 volt  the best backup is this

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=940317.0


with this http://www.ebay.com/itm/LOT-OF-2-HP-438202-001-DPS-1200FB-A-1200W-AC-Hot-Plug-Power-Supply-440785-001-/401146683436?


then clock to freq  450-462

read here

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1534854.0


sidehacks  dps-1200 will run the s-9 very well on the downclock  using 120 volts.

since the only 'perfect' psus at 120volts are the evga 1600 g2 , p2, t2   

  getting 1 board with 2 psus  from sidehack  is not too bad a deal.

especially   if noise is an issue.


This is contrary to 'Race to the bottom thinking'   , but once I started to play the game with the it will still be working in 28 years(i will be 87 then) mindset I have found the game is less stressful

29484  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Bitmain's Released Antminer S9, World's First 16nm Miner Ready to Order on: July 07, 2016, 09:57:50 AM
Hi,

I made an order for two Antminer S9 B5 than I made a direct bitcoin payment but almost 72 hours after that transaction is stil unconfirmed. Bitmain said "The payment is on the way.
We don't receive it yet. " Did anybody seen something like that?

when you buy one they send an email to you so
find the tx id.  and reply in an email to them.
see below





They obviously see the transaction ID. They wrote: "The payment is on the way"

okay do it your way.  i only have done it my way for 30 orders and always got credit within 24 hours.

 your way seems to make it last longer   so far 72 hours.    have fun waiting.


once again I led you to the water it is up to you to drink.


I think you do not understand me.
Bitmain know the transaction ID. They said the problem is with Bitcoin platform. And that is what I am asking if anybody had such a problem before. If someone can give me advice I will tell him the transaction ID.

no one can help with out seeing the tx id.

if you show the id   we could see why it got stuck.   without examination of the id we would only be guessing.

I have had stuck transactions due to various reasons.  So  the id needs to be looked at , hopefully  it still exists. Since id's can drop off the system.
29485  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: BEWARE Bitmain S7/S9 failures and lack of warranty on: July 07, 2016, 04:01:41 AM
I am really impressed that neither miner next to the burned up one were affected. In fact, I am impressed the whole house did not burn down.

Generally the materials used won't support combustion so unless something really catastrophic happens, the worst case should be as pictured. I don't remember what the certification series is called but I think boards are meant to self extinguish within 10 seconds or so.

True, I am aware of those facts and I agree with you. I think you are referring to the FR-4 materials grade designation for PCB construction. However, that does not preclude surrounding items, i.e. shelving or other objects depending on material composition, from catching fire.
The self extinguishing ratings only apply  after the ignition source/condition is removed. In this case after the mains breaker feeding the PSU tripped shutting off power to the (massive) short. Odds are the PCIe power leads were the only thing setting a limit to the power being fed into the short circuit. This miner was tied to a 4kw psu no? If safety is a concern, um, putting a couple 1200-1300w loads on a single high energy source demands fusing EACH of loads to just over whatever current they take, for an s7 that equates to 110-115A to prevent exactly this sort of thing from happening.

Yes because of how they work fuses introduce a voltage drop, if that is too high then using DC circuit breakers is the only option.

Now as what started the meltdown by apparently shorting out the incoming 12V power planes...  Would certainly be nice to know. This also points to one of the few advantages to feeding each miner from a PSU more closely matched to its power needs. Certainly could still have a catastrophic failure similar to this but at least the maximum power that can feed the failure point is far less and more in line with reasonable worst case design considerations.

I have used finksy gear.
And I have used optimizer gear
And I have used sidehack gear
And I have used Pete m gear.

Along with evga 1600 t2 1600 p2 1600 g2 1300 g2

Seasonic 1200 plat

And more.

To me. The s-9 needs to be run under clocked with the 2k watt boards. Using the IBM dps-1600
The IBM dps-2000 or the IBM-2500 psus. At freq 500 to 600 depending on the batch number.

Bitmaintech has dropped from freq 650 to freq 550 batch 1 to batch 5.

My guess is they are having issues ruining the gear in summer heat.

Right now I am running two batch 1 s-9 at freq 600 in the array with finksy 4k board and two dps -2000
So far okay.
1 s9 batch two at freq 600 with evga 1600 p2
1 s9 batch two at freq 600 with dps-1600 optimizer 2k board
1 s7 batch one at freq 600 with evga 1600 t2

And
1 s-9 batch 4 at home freq 462 with optimizer 2 k board and a dps- 2500
29486  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: [∞ YH] solo.ckpool.org 1% fee solo mining USA/DE servers 184 blocks solved! on: July 07, 2016, 03:22:27 AM

e.g. people who mine on antpoo vs kano.is get less BTC. Simple.
They just have no idea what they are doing...
I must be one of those lucky morons, because p/hash I made more @ AntPool (albeit that I only stayed on kano.is for like 2 days because I'm not big on the "manual payments" thing in 2016)


As far as "unrelated", I call "balderdash"!
There are those of us (or I may just be the only one, who knows) that use "solo pools" because of reliability issues vs. a full solo setup. When you take that into account and look at how not serious folks here seem to take it, other solo pools become a more viable option. When the "fans" of a pool treat that pool like a wanton whore, you can't really get all butthurt because newcomers feel the same way!

Sorry you mine at antpool,f2pool or any pool in China .

But part of your comparison is correct. In that antpool is one end of the variance spectrum and solopool is the other end of the spectrum.

It is sad that you do not see why antpool is a fail compared to Kano.is. But I do agree that your thread was about very high variance and vs very low variance,thus Kano.is pool did not apply since it is not at the far end of the spectrom of variance.

Good luck on antpool after the 1/2 ing.  I will be with Kano.is and sometimes take a pop here.

i just wanna ask what is the best vga card for mining who has psu 650 wats only? and are there website for calculate it. thank you very much.

depends on the pcie wires on the psu.  I know two rx 480's will run and the pc will use only 340 watts.  you need two separate pcie wires


@ claymore thank for this software it runs my 2 new rx 480's very well

FYI you can down clock the GPU core to around 1160-1180mhz...the GPU waits on the memory controller after those speeds so no point running it full speed. Saves a few watts.

on claymore miner i jumped my hash rate from 50mh to 54 mh   by moving clock from 2000 (stock) to 2200

this is for the 480x  not the r9 390's

GPU clock not mem clock :p

duh!! missed that  thank you  will reset it later

claymore with eth only is really good.

I change out the r9 rig and jumped from 52mh to 58 mh.

I now have 2 rx 480s in one rig

and two r9 390's in the second rig.


54mh the 480s   372 watts

58mh the 390's   496 watts

msi afterburner  allowed me to do 1 setting memory to 2200

watt man did the fans to 75%

asus did the power to 86 or minus 14%

54mh at 372 watts is very good.  I am sure I can do better once drivers are sorted by :

sapphire trixx
msi afterburner
wattman
asus gpu tweak

Hey Phillip...

I noticed your strong advocation for down clocking...

A little off topic for the thread -- but:

I live in an ungodly large home for just 2 people -- so the noise isn't even heard 99% of the time...

However, I am plugging in a 1600W PSU into just a regular outlet (20 Amp circuit) for my S9.  I've seen some of the awful pictures of other miners that burned -- Am I OK?  Or should I consider sliding the scale down just a bit...

I know it says that it pulls 1300W -- but every time I check the kilowatt meter, it was between 1138W and 1194W -- temps are fine (air conditioned environment)...

I know that you are an expert -- and reading your advice about down clocking kind of mentally set me back a bit...

I'd like to hash as much as possible -- without risk...

Thanks!!!

 Smiley Smiley Smiley

Im currently hosting my S9 at my house now using an EVGA g2 1600W from a wall outlet also. I chose to underclock for this exact reason, and also just to be safe. I saw a lot of Phils posts saying that they should be underclocked for many reasons

these are the batches.  all have 189 chips all have 2 fans

if bitmaintech made the clocks drop from 650 to 550  and kept the fans and the chips the same it seems like common sense to clock them all close the the batch 5 number of 550  rather then the batch 1 number of 650



batch 1 14.0th    freq 650
batch 2 12.93th  freq 600
batch 3  12.93th freq 600
batch 4  12.93th freq 600
batch 5  11.85th freq 550

my one at home is clocked to 462 until I move it to the array


my four at the array are clocked at 600 with monster fans action.

You may be stuck buying a 1600w PC PSU which will take 120-240v.
I can't say how well they will take constant voltage changes, but if it's within the range they will certainly work.
Look up an eVGA 1600w G2, they're around $360 USD.

 my method of underclocking to freq 462 and buying the evga 1300 g2 is better


he saves 160 usd maybe more.   

he runs at 9.9 th vs 12.0 th

so he loses 2 th.

gear is much quieter much cooler

if it is hot desert he is well off.

2 th is going to earn 160 usd in about 7 months.   So he would be ahead of the game for the next 7 months. with the evga 1300 g2 and a downclock.

plus much much much much less noise.

and less heat

This.  Maximum hashrate is not optimal solution.

I gave up  I led him to the water and he won't drink it.

  numbers 21 and 22  >>>   419485 and 419488
[/quote] number 23 >>>>   419561

so  24 made would be bad luck  26 made even luck   28 made good luck

this would be for the final 1000 blocks

579 passed so far   23 of 579 = 3.97%  our 44th is about 2.88 %

so 397/288= 1.37  or 137% lucky  vs 100% normal

First off i went pretty freaking crazy but I have a working hash rate at a pool.

claymore soft ware is giving me very good numbers. for 1 pair of sapphire 8gb rx 480's

so the 54mh is using only 350 watts  or about 310 for the cards and 40 for the rig
