At this moment the real diff for this period is negative.

Bitcoin wisdom has a wrong high number.  It uses the last 500 blocks at the beginning of each prediction.

We made 141 blocks today.

We will need to watch carefully as the last two huge numbers have a lot to do with bitfury and the 40 megawatt plant they built.

I want people to understand that 141 blocks on the new diff is about 157 blocks on the last diff.

Now we have still watched big up swings and down swings.  I have been watch the temps near the Russian bitfury plant as I suspect the warm winter is causing that plant some problems.

Should be fun to watch.

Also here is a good question if bitfury has a 200 to 275 ph plant in one spot is that good or bad for the network?

Seems to me it is not a good idea to have that much hash in one spot.

33185  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Hash rate cut inhalf - AntMiner S5 on: December 31, 2015, 09:34:40 PM
Sorry I messed up the second photo which should be corrected now.

Running Freq 350 (which I believe is standard)

Using CX750M PSU

I have a Kill-a-watt inline meter that is getting me the wattage read out.

As of right now I don't have access to the get the GUI status screens shots, but will get them out there soon.  



I have replied to 10 people in the last year about the 750CXm  and usually the psu is just short of have enough to over come the 2 cable feed in.

I see the shot and as I though only 2 cables not four.

a good easy fix may be use freq 300  see if it shuts down.


The CX750M is borderline gear, the two pcie jacks will be pushing near 300 watts each 24/7/365

Some will work 3 weeks, 3 months ,6 months ,3 hours at freq 350  .

  the cables and jacks are just close enough to being good enough to hide the fact that they are maxed at 600 watts.

if you look careful it has a 62.5 amp  rating for the 1  12volt rail which is about a 726 watt rating .

So cables vary a bit build to build
psu's vary a bit build to build
s-5's vary a bit build to build
home 120 volt  sockets vary from  110 to 122 volts and 240 volt sockets vary from  220 to 243 volts.

So in your case each thing is on the -2 or -5% side of spec then  when you add it all up the psu gives up the ghost but slowly not fast.

I suggest down clock to freq 300  let us know if it works.

here is a way better psu to buy sale ends today


http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817438061


notice 4 separate pcie jacks

I even think this one is better below

33186  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Hash rate cut inhalf - AntMiner S5 on: December 31, 2015, 09:10:05 PM
you may be over heating the psu and it gives up the ghost.

first off your photos of hash rate don't show  any valuable info to help us guess

first one is hash rate who cares?  I know you do.
second one is a 404 error.

what we need are gui photos.

settings photo

how do you know you are 604 watts at the wall


the make of the psu is nice corsair but    what is the model?

A s-5  will pull 580 to 620 at the wall at freq 350  depends on psu.

So I don't know which corsair you have.

I also do not know  what freq you set.

here is a  CX750M http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139051&ignorebbr=1&cm_re=corsair_750-_-17-139-051-_-Product

it is not quite good enough it has 2 cables with 4 plugs and can fail after a while.  I would never use it with the s-5

I am sure many will come to defend it  but if  it is what you are using you would be one of many coming to this site asking what is wrong.

this is the next corsair 750 it is the non-modular version and it does not have 4 separate cables

33188  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: S7 Batch 8/9 or Avalon 6 on: December 31, 2015, 08:46:40 PM
I also fear the S7 batch 8,
if avalon lowers prices leave bitmain, the rpodotti are sketchy, blades than you burn, defective controller etc ...
  in my opinion, the only miner rock was S3 +
this is that it was a rock
S5 disappointed me a lot, the blades were burned continuously,

We hope in the competition with 16 nm chips.
and a guarantee at least 6 months, 90 days is too short

I would take a one hundred twenty day warranty in a heartbeat.

33191  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: S7 Batch 8/9 or Avalon 6 on: December 31, 2015, 04:18:02 PM
I see it as two different area's of miners.  S7 Batch 8/9 really I see as 240 put somewhere where sound is not an issue.  You can do 120... but 220/240 you save a lot on PSU going to server one (but it is not quiet).

Home miner the S6 is much easier with 120 and 4 PCIE cables, so lot of PSU choices out there.  And it is much more quiet.  So if you were mining at home this is one I would go for personally.  Other if sound/240 is not an issue.

So kinda depends on your situation on what I think is best.

actually if every s-7 was like the batch 2 freq rated 575 that  I got it would be easy to say the s-7 is better.

that freq 575 rated s-7 does freq 637  and 5150gh at .27watts  and it was sold at a cheap price since it was rated at freq 575.  It even did under .25 watts with the titanium evga 1600 t2  if you ran it at freq 600.

The problem with s-7's  is every freaking batch is different.  batch 1 and batch 2  the oem firmware allows for 6 boards and 4 fans.

the newer batches have less chips  so I would think you just do not know what the machine will do.

Batch 8 has had a lot of complaints Batch 9 is not out yet. So I am a bit scared of bitmaintech gear as of today.

I have 3 S7 (B1, B3 and B8), they are running very well, but the B3 needed a RMA, so 2 blades 2 weeks offline... They are very easy to run and do it without any issue. Simply and well running.
I have 1 A6, i need a BB and an adapter. They can be controlled with only one screen, so point for it, but i'm very disapointed it only hashes at 3.15 Th/s!! (Temp 28-68-67 and fan 2520 and 50%)

I'm planning to buy some new miners, and i have no doubt: antminer S7 B9, the price is far the best...
... but i'm afraid with bitfury, innosilicon and spondoolies (and other 14/16nm projects)

the avalon is very volt dependent it hashes to 3.7 or 3.8 with proper psu

33197  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: S7 Batch 8/9 or Avalon 6 on: December 31, 2015, 06:05:50 AM
They are closer in price then people realize .

Four pcie cables vs ten.

So if you use a 2x 2000 watt breakout board with 3 volt settings you can run 4 Avalon sixes using

16 cables

Same psu setup uses 3 s-7s  with 30 cables

14 cables cost  forty two usd

Since the new s-7 uses more power per watt then the old ones.

The two setups are close in hash rate .  But the 3 s-7 would be less money then 4 Avalon 6

Say 4k vs 5.4k.

If you get a bad s-7  and all good avalons the avalons would be better.

I was thinking do I want more avalons.
I am not thinking do I want more s-7s.
If I could get two more at a better price I would.
You got two for me at nice prices a while back.
If Avalon was to drop prices to 1100 I would very likely get one or two.

s7 right about now Price: 2.85 BTC       ( 1210.71 USD )
...

not cool from them!

fair price would be ~2.5btc...

and i'm interested, but at the right price

got ~10kw and i will keep on upgrading with s7 because of price and a bit better efficiency

Not sure how true the statement about the s7 being more efficient really is, there are some post on the s7 thread that it is at .3 and not .25

Good batch one,two s-7s did do .25 even .247 with a titanium evga 1600 t2.

The batch 8 is not so good maybe .3 or worse.

 You guys are too awesome, your detail reviews definitely helps others decide what is best for them (size, efficiency,  noise level, etc).  I just hooked up my next pair of IBM 2K PSU and of course I found out they are the newer Rev so I can't use them with the 4K board voltage controls (Only work with Rev 8 or lower per Finksy).  Going to order a pair of older rev PSU from FINKSY to go with the new 4K board bundle.
  
  For this new pair of IBM 2K PSU, I simply just use the Scotch mounting tape Phillip recommended.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00004Z498?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00

 Although they feel weak to the touch, these things are strong as heck when you tape them to something.  They're so strong that I didn't even bother to split out the other pair of PSU to find out the Rev #.  I only use a small piece to attach the FAN together.  Since they're at the bottom of the PSU, I didn't even need to use a mount, just place the PSU (taped together) on top and it's nice and steady on top.  I love this SCOTCH TAPE!  Make this solution clean, sexy and no obstruction to flow.  Guess I wont be needing to buy any fan mounting kit with this Tape.  Op, please quote my message so picture will show.

3m double side tape works if you have the older single breakout boards board and grilled shelf system

this is nhando's twist on my mount

here you go :
he double side tape the two fans



 he uses the shelf as a grill and base


lastly he gets good wire management  this is 2 single 2000 watt breakout finksy j4bberwock boards
