Your image is 2.6MB, perhaps that has something to do with it, not exactly sure, try a smaller one. Nice server PSU hookup btw  Thanks, re-sizing did the trick! |

Here is a board I built for my DPS-800GB, It hooks up to a Raspberry Pi so I can monitor the supply's status and power cycle it remotely...   |

Here are my Ants powered by a HP DPS-800GB server supply w/ custom breakout board wired to a Raspberry Pi running MinePeon so I can monitor the status and power cycle remotely.  http://imgur.com/a/kqFsz#0Nice. How much did that board cost to make? Roughly $30, I did all the soldering by hand. All in all about half the cost of the CX750's I was using before this. |

According to Garrett's resume, he's in high school, placing him on an approximately equal intellectual and social development footing with HasfFart's management, and maybe a short couple years behind the sophomoric Josh.
Looks like he is in college from his LinkedIn Profile probably just finishing up freshman year. It isn't about age. It is about ethics. Respectfully I have seen kids as young as 8 or 9 with better ethics than most of adults in HF or BFL or Avalon. There is no age restriction on being ethical. If you are willing to ignore the theft of millions just to pad your own wallet then you might want to find better mentors and that is what you need to point out. You could make a case for lack of experience or knowledge based on age but you had better show clearly the lack of knowledge and experience. There are some great examples out in the real world of teens and pre-teens turning technology / engineering on its head. http://www.ryanswell.ca/ <-- Case in point. There are plenty more. http://www.democracynow.org/2012/6/21/at_rio_20_severn_cullis_suzuki <-- And another. Totally agree. |

Does anyone think the Bundle will turn a profit? If you separate the costs out and do the math for the 12% discount the units cost 7.326 and 17.593 BTC for the SP10 and SP30 respectively. The SP10 looks like a good deal with a good chance chance of a small ROI. On the other hand unless the difficulty increases average 13% or less through the end of 2014 the SP30 will never ROI. Looking at historical difficulty there have been periods like that in the past toward the end of the GPU era for example in 2012 but is ASIC mining tech really mature enough to assume difficulty growth will slow to those levels and stay there for 9+ months?
On another note, the terms of sale definitely say that none of the advertised dates are guaranteed and there is no recourse for late delivery. Based on my past experience with ASIC equipment companies those kinds of terms are just unacceptable to me. The customer's and the company's interest just aren't aligned when the payment is upfront and late delivery has no consequence. It looks like a really nice machine though.

i know this is off topic but, does anyone know if any batch 2 sierra's have/are being delivered yet?
it's now over a month past its guaranteed date and starting to take the p***.
You might be interested in the IceDrill thread, they just released a audit report of their assets. They were the largest single buyer of Hashfast Sierra units and they were supposed to be ahead of everyone with October delivery. At any rate their report shows they have only received roughly 12% of the Sierras they ordered as of a week or two ago if that tells you anything about when you might be seeing yours... https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=269216.msg5462543#msg5462543 |

I see Bitmain has now opened preorder for the Antminer U2+ And the S1 is now listed as "Up Coming" and can no longer be ordered... I hardly see any spec. difference for the U2+ though.
I wonder if this means we'll see an S2(+?) launch this week.
Looks like the U2+ is still running on the same chip as the U1 but it has a bigger heat sink and is clocked at a higher rate it also appears to have the same power efficiency characteristics as the U1. Does anyone know if Bitmain is developing a second generation chip or has said anything about that? |

Be wary of the two-bit idiot guy. Just found some CONFIRMED bullshit in his gox blogs. He says in this post from Wednesday 26th http://two-bit-idiot.tumblr.com/post/77920927310/i-retract-nothing-i-have-written-so-far-regarding-mtSecondMarket was, in fact, approached by Mt. Gox some time last weekend. Mark Karpeles approached Barry Silbert to solicit an acquisition offer, and it seems likely that Silbert, who had already committed privately to building a US-based exchange bitcoin exchange, jumped at the opportunity to explore the deal.
However, when the magnitude of the theft and potential fraud became free, Silbert and his team quickly pulled out of discussions, sent an email to all employees over the weekend banning them from buying or selling bitcoin indefinitely, and most likely reported the suspicious activity to the authorities. As a regulated entity that probably signed a non-disclosure agreement before learning the full extent of the Mt. Gox damage, SecondMarket would have had no other choice, but to keep this out of the public eye, even if it was acting honestly behind the scenes. But if you look at the numbers from the BIT thread you'll see that they've bought over 500 bitcoins this week. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=337486.msg5398518#msg5398518Pretty sure he means that they were prohibited from trading for their personal accounts just like the employees of a hedge fund would be prohibited from trading in stocks that they might get special access to information to through their jobs. That isn't a comment on SecondMarket's activities as I read it. |

“Gox is the worst-run business in the history of the world,” said Roger Ver, in an instant message interview. Ver is a bitcoin advocate who lives across the street from Mt. Gox’s Tokyo offices and tried to help out the troubled exchange the last time it was hacked, back in 2011. http://www.wired.com/wiredenterprise/2014/02/bitcoins-mt-gox-implodes/Thanks for making me laugh. I can visualize a frustrated Roger typing that out. That is it folks, I am going to bed. Gox is dead, long live Bitcoin! Well, that explains the update to the description of this YouTube Video... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UP1YsMlrfF0 |

Shipping was announced as starting February 24 in China. It's now a little 1:00 AM February 25th in China.
Anyone see any of their orders (placed before feb 23 11pm China time) shipped on the BITMAIN site?
My Feb 16 order is unshipped and I don't have any MYUPS coverage in my area to have Crystal Ball information for advanced tracking.
The website isn't ever updated in a timely fashion, unless you can look on UPS's website you will probably receive the package before the status updates on the Bitmain site. |

ok thank you. the current plug says it outputs 20v @ 4.5 amp I was looking to decrease the volt and increase the amp and decrease the volts for a ?quess? is %30 more total power?
should I think about feeding it 5v?
You typically can't change the input volts and have it just work w/o destroying something you can buy a higher quality power supply with the ability to supply more amps though. It really all depends on the internal components of that Hub and what they are rated for. |
|
|
|
USB Devices run on 5v so that 12v input is getting converted to 5v in side the hub whether or not what you want to do will work depends on if the internal components of the hub can also handle the increased current. Unless someone has tried it it is hard to know if it will work or start a fire. |

Can someone point me in the direction of the hardware I need to get a wireless connection going to these Ant's?
I use an ($15 NCIX special) ASUS RT-N10P Wireless N150 Router 802.11B/G/N that has a very easy WIRELESS REPEATER setup from the web browser management page. I set it up to repeat my home wireless network and I have antminers hooked into it by ethernet. Solid router/wireless repeater. Has never gone down since last Christmas when I first set it up. If and when I get more than 4 Ants I just add a powered switch to it to get more than 4 ethernet ports. Don't you have to connect a wireless antenna to the Ants for wireless? If you have it sitting very close to your AP you can get away w/o an antenna but if you are that close why not just use an Ethernet cable. |

Can someone tell me what the largest wattage common used server power supply is?
It must operate on 100-125V, have a FAN inside.
Thanks!
The highest I've seen for 120V input is 910Watts. Seams like the combo of highest/most common though is in the 700-800 range with the Dells and the HPs that people talk about often. They are rated for higher wattages if you use them on a 210 supply. Anything over 1400 Watts isn't going to be safe on standard 15 Amp 120 Volt US house wiring. http://www.ebay.com/itm/221374780776 |

Eh, as long as credit goes where it's due. I and my guys have worked way too hard on this to let someone else rebrand it, but he's edited the listings.
I had planned on not opening general sales to the world until the next batch, keeping it to the forums until everything was pretty well ironed out and proven to be good. Not that I really had much doubt, but it is a bare PCB and there are a lot of idiots in the world.
I've got a noob question, what is the large capacitor for on the board? Is that something specific to the Dell supplies I've been trying to jerry rig a few old supplies I have laying around of different brands just wondering if I'm doing something dangerous/wrong w/o knowing it? |
