Here's another view of the Rev3 board & heat pipe system.

Wow. I count upwards of 25Ghash sitting there.

I count 25 singles (one of them with my name on it), and 25 x 832 MH/s is 20.8 GH/s.
The ones in the rear of the pic are double stacked.

I'm assuming he does something similar to moredropbox's offering, which if I recall correctly works using a script on a set of virtual machines with Tor on them.

Ah OK, I hadn't seen the Rev1 show in the pic, I was thinking of the original board with undersized power, that must have been Rev0. Grin

EDIT: Does Rev3 have feet on the bottom? It looks raised up a little bit.


Yes..  true, Rev0 existed as well as a discovery prototype. 

Rev3 has feet...  4 soft rubber nubbys.

Cool - I see that would enable stacking to some degree, but how would you recommend the cooling to be applied? It seems that the air blowing from the top of the lower device(s) would be brought into the intake of the upper device(s) if they were stacked. Or does this generally not manifest itself as a problem? Perhaps for a tall stack, a small fan of sorts could blow up the tower from one side. Stacking even 10 of them would be about 700 watts of heat to dissipate.

3767  Economy / Marketplace / Re: [WTB] Make me a custom fan controller - PWM control, 6-24 channels, 50w/channel on: April 06, 2012, 10:28:38 PM
I got the fans in yesterday, and they came with a connector that doesn't fit anything I have ever seen, so I chopped them off. The wires are also very thin, but they spin up fine. PM me your shipping address and I'll send you a couple of them to develop with.

I'm figuring the easiest way to do this would be to have several open solder points that I could hook up the PWM wires to, and I'll take care of the power wires on my main 12v bus. Would this have tach reading capability, or would it just do PWM? These fans take PWM for speed control, as well as providing a tach output to read the current speed.

I've got BTC burning a hole in my wallet.dat waiting to buy my second BFL single, but I'm kinda nervous with people waiting so long to get theirs. It seems from the shipment tracking that people who ordered in January are getting theirs now?

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=67887.msg791080#msg791080

I think I would be foolish to order a second one when my first one hasn't even arrived yet.

more complete list:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=67887.msg814507#msg814507

but same results, no orders from January have received anything.

I don't understand how they went from Rev1 to Rev3, yet no one ever got a rev2...
Rev1 never shipped to anyone. Those that have gotten devices so far have been getting Rev2 devices.

I'd be interested in whether you actually have an honest connection inside Amazon, because it is more likely that the chat support agent is blowing smoke up your ass. Privacy laws and all that shit.
3770  Economy / Computer hardware / Re: [WTB] Up to 30 5870s on: April 06, 2012, 09:57:30 PM
Hmm. I have a dozen of them, but I need them for my magical unicorn wonder rig (link in sig). I have yet to experience a dual gpu device, because they sound like a hassle (been shying away from 5970s). But the dual DVI ports are really being a pain when it comes to airflow...

Would you consider trading 5870s for 5970s, or is this a buy-only offer?

About your other suspicion:  flood with invalid tx -> crash == DoS attack vector.
Some similar tx flood DoS attack vectors were recently closed, but it is entirely possible that more remain, or that the patch has opened a different vector. It will be interesting to find out the cause of this crashing.

BTW, I believe that Luke-jr has posted backports of 0.5.x, if that interests you.

Is there an archive of the old forum?
Have you looked at all his posts to see if he accidently mentioned anything/used slang from a particular country?
You can download the entire archive of forum posts (not including restricted forums) from the file that theymos posted recently. Look at some of the recent posts in Meta to find that thread.

Additionally, in another thread somewhere (not sure where), theymos also posted all of Satoshi's posts in the restricted sections in one big quote.

Look to me like it could be either disk corruption or someone flooding your node with an invalid tx. I think you mentioned that you have already blown away the block database once, but if you haven't that would be something to try.

3776  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Wonder who this solominer is? 88.6.216.9 on: April 06, 2012, 08:05:27 PM
It's not impossible the solominer is someone with Asics already.

Might as well be Vlad https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=75298.msg838691;topicseen#msg838691 and his plan for a massive Asic mining farm. Even if it isn't him, it could be someone else with Asics already putting everyone who is mining out of business.

As I understand it Vlad's plans are outright to get >51% of the network rate and maximize profits (see other thread).

One thing he might be doing IMO is spreading FUD ( http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fear,_Uncertainty_and_Doubt ) in order to "invite unfavorable opinions and speculation about a competitor's product; to increase the general estimation of switching costs among current customers; or to maintain leverage over a current business partner who could potentially become a rival."

The question is only what product and which competitor? Certainly, it will be easier to get to 51% if you can scare out other miners ahead of time.
You are the one spreading FUD. Please re-read the thread you linked to, slower and more carefully. There was only discussion and speculation as to what could be done if he were to achieve 51%, NOT an outright claim that such a feat would be attempted.

Funny had same problem.   Is anyone here Litecoin mining on their BAMT rigs?  I am not well versed with linux and would like to get some of my quad cores LTC mining. Thanks for any help!
BAMT is 32-bit so you won't have much luck.

Why does it have to be 64-bit. I have an XP 32 mining. The miner runs a scrypt through each thread.
Because 64-bit is faster for scrypt calculations.

May be true but I would like to run it just to see on the couple BAMT rigs I got with Quad cores.
It should still run fine on 32-bit, just slower.
