ASUS Z270 P Yesterday it launched 8 cards 8 Sapphire 470 4gb(Elpida) nitro+ oc ETH - Total Speed: 212.248 Mh/s No luck with Elpida for trust http://joxi.ru/bmovjVMsxdoZ6rbut all works on OS simpleminig sorry for english with love from Russia Ooo nice, can anyone else confirm that the Asus Z270 A / Z270 AR / Z270 P are working with 7 or more cards? These may be my Msi Gaming 5 Z97 replacement. |

much apologies guys, i've been really super busy, replied all pm's & will reply as they come along.
there will be some shipping out today as i promised by today. running all over town to get lots fo stuffs & nego's has been going on.
just got keys to my new dc, workshop, playground, warehouse ... lots of work to do from there on.
some fun pics, yeah i'm here spamming again . . .
Does this X370 board run 6 cards? Anyone spot any Ryzen 6/7 PCIe boards that can be used for mining? |

So rumors seem to be true.. no more mxm gpu's.. Got some pictures that someone sent me. Looks A LOT like the first pandaminer design. Anyhow.. i don't know what to think.. that it's going to be heavy?   Interesting pics ... so regular cards, with modified single slot coolers, and it actually takes up more volume than the B1. |

I Believe Finksey was going to upgrade his 4k and 2880 PSU bundles with picoPSU's soon.

Nobody answered my question.
With these 4k PSU setups, its really nice to support so many GPUS, but it looks like you would have to disconnect a large number of cables to take a rig out of service. I'm thinking about building a custom setup with 2 Mother boards, 16GPUs, and one FINKSY 2880 PSU all in one custom case. This way the connection to that case is just power and network.
I did answer your question, did you miss it? Pasting it here just for reference.
@yun999 -- I'm curious about how you use the 4k PSU bundles with open rigs. It seems one PSU would power 4 or more rigs (at 6 cards each). So when you have to take one rig down, what do you do? Disconnect the 9 power cables going to the cards and risers? Or are you rigs set up so you do maintenance in place? I have to move mine to replace a card. Right now the ATX PSU goes with it, so to do maintenance all I have to do is disconnect the 120v AC and the network cable... and its a unit.
I am liking the 4k PSU bundle, just not sure how to deal with it. Or maybe I should build a massive open rig with multiple motherboards and GPUs and treat it all as one unit. LOL!.
While the 4k PSU delivers most of the power for the system (namely, all the cards) each system still needs a mini PSU (basically just a low capacity regular PSU like 450W) which is what you use to turn on/off each system. The alternative, and what everyone is switching to, is a nanoPSU which powers off of the 4K PSU and has a small on/off switch. Anyways, no harm in building a custom setup, don't forget to share pics here. Best of Luck. |

Setup is built around a 8 GPUs per daughterboard(the actual board I'm building). Two of my boards are connected to the mainboard (~$150). My current estimates are around 150 per board..so 300+100 = $450...I guess my estimate price is a bit too low for you then huh  The current board I'm testing can physically connect a total of 18 GPUs since it has two extra PCIE slots...youll will just need risers for that last two (there is a possibility a future BIOS update I could make it to post with 3 or even 4 of my boards for a total of 32 GPUs, but I'm just working on 16 for now...plus I would need to work closely with miner devs for anything more than 16...I have slowly hinted them improvements which they have already implemented for multi GPU setups in the past year). Also the board has status LEDs per GPU lane...if a GPU goes down you'll know right away which one it is, and yes if one GPU crashes the board will still work. This is no different than any other mutigpu setup, other than it having just more GPU lanes. Your doing something wrong if one GPU crash brings down your whole system. Keep in mind that this price is mostly dependent on the quantities I can order for parts on the first batch. Obviously more boards = less price per board. I am also pretty much charging the cost of components + a small profit margin for me. The design + dev + testing + prototyping etc is all done by me so thats why I can price it so low. Hey Man, could you share some pics, even a sketchup that would tell us about the size/layout of the daughter boards and the motherboards? I'm asking because it would give us a head start on building cases/frames for these boards. |

What I can promise right now is that this solution will definitely be cheaper in total supporting component costs per GPU with the typical 6-7 GPU setup right now.
Cant wait man, may the hash-force guide you. What I can promise right now is that this solution will definitely be cheaper in total supporting component costs per GPU with the typical 6-7 GPU setup right now.
so what your saying your going to be offering the motherboard for around 70 to 80 dollars? if not its hardly worth it. your still vetting out hardware so to say it will be cheaper in total supporting component costs per gpu is a bit premature. tbh I doubt this setup will be cheaper than compared to a typical 6 to 7 gpu setup not to mention your playin to a niche market and not everyone in that market will see that as viable, I see more points of failure being added etc, thats what I look at. but all in all I guess we all will find out my question is what happens when you cant deliver on this promise your making that it will be cheaper and it turns out its not, you going to take a hit? doubt it lolz Why are you so negative man? Did jstenfanop take money from you for doing this project? Did anyone ask him to develop such a solution? He is doing this out of his own free will and he has invested a significant amount of time and effort into it, if you can not appreciate it at-least don't take a piss on someone else just for the heck of it. And what do you mean "What if you cant deliver" he doesn't owe you jack shit, so stop feeling so entitled. Let him complete what he is working on and deliver, and if people see value in it, which im sure they would unless they are blind, they would buy it. You on the other hand can completely avoid it and trust me no one would hold it against you. But don't be such a killjoy. Here is some info on doing multi GPU (8+) setups. It has some great insight into what all is needed. gstoner on the link is a Senior Director at AMD and is full of knowledge about this type of set up. https://community.amd.com/thread/197524this thread was started by jstefanop himself Ooo so here we see the genesis of the very idea. Thank you for sharing this kilo, now lets hope it becomes a reality. |

Thanks.
Also which should be more productive rx470 with 8000mhz ram or 480 with 7000mhz ram?
Rx 470 with 8000mhz all the way man. Most of the algos benefit from the extra Memory speed, and Ethereium loves it. |

Biostar became available on NewEgg so I quickly grab 10. =)
So YOU are the reason Newegg put a limit of 1 per customer on this board  Also looking at plan B, so I ordered a few Gigabyte MB. These support 6 GPUs no issues but they are a pain in the butt at time with the multiple flashing of ON/OFF, when there's any changes.
Why Gigabyte? Isnt the MSI Gaming 5 a much better board? |

Pardon my ignorance but for Dcred at supernova, you have an alias in the wallet address, is that how you are supposed to do it? Could that be the reason its failing for me? Im using a polonix DCR address. Don't use your address. Set up a worker. Use: 'username.workername' Suprnova requires you to create a account with them. Then you have to register your Poloniex DCR address in suprnova website. I recall ocminer saying he can setup direct address mining if enough demand - not sure if that plan got done. Dammit so that's where I was fudging up. Thanks Phil  |

Hey Claymore, I need some help here. This is the first time im trying to dual mine DCR, but have mined Sia or Pascal in the past. But DCR just says "DCR Authorisation Failed" at the beginning, and then all shares that I recieve end up rejected - 100%. This is my connection string : setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool asia1.ethpool.org:3333 -mode 1 -ewal ExchanceWallet.HomePC -epsw x -etha 0 -dcoin pasc -dcri 1 -dpool dcr.suprnova.cc:2252 -dwal ExchangeWallet.HomePC -dpsw x -wd 1 -r 1 -dbg -1 -mport 0 -eres 2
Now I will highlight that I am using a Polonix wallet address, so that could be causing the issue. Any thoughts/suggestions fellas? You are using "-dcoin pasc". Shouldn't you use "-dcoin dcr" instead? True, copy pasting error. Edited orignal post. Dont have it in the string. You actually dont need to specify -dcoin if dual mining dcred. |

Can someone paste their Claymores string for DCR here? I have tried a bunch of pools and all DCR shares get rejected, while Eth is mined just fine. Even Sia or Pascal give no issues.
cmd /K EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool us1.ethpool.org:3333 -epool user.name -epsw x -tt 75 -fanmax 75 -fanmin 65 -dpool dcr.suprnova.cc:2252 -dwal worker.name -dpsw x -allpools 1 Thanks, is that working for you? I have a very similar combination of Ethpool and Supernova, and It starts with "DCR Authorisation Failed" following which all I get is 100% DCR Shares getting rejected. Yes. Working as we speak Interesting, why does it specifically hate me then  what wallet are you using for Dcred? Because I was trying to mine to a Polonix wallet, that could be causing the issue. Edit : Tried Nicehash pool and a bitcoin wallet address. Do not get DCR Authorisation failed anymore, but still 100% rejected shares. Anyone have any clues? |

1070 is cheaper by $15 to $20 basically price unchanged 500 series is just a
rebadge of the rx 400 series nothing to see there
Nvidia fanboi spotted No Miner's a fanboy. Marvell is spot on, hardly any drop in GTX1070 and the RX 500 series is a re-brand with 5% clock speed improvements, nothing to get excited about. |

I saw mention of PICO in this thread, something about it is a type of PSU or something that connects to PSU and motherboard? Will someone explain this a bit more?
A pico PSU is a small PCB that plugs directly into the Motherboard 24pin slot, and can power a basic system. It usually also has one plug for Molex and One for Sata to also power an HDD/SSD, but a very small total Power capacity, usually 120-150W. It's not needed for people like you and me who have regular 1000/1300W PSU's for their system. Now, 2k or 4k server PSU's were originally designed for use with ASIC's and only have 6 pin GPU out ports and no 24pin output for motherboards or molex sata power etc. They are used in conjugation with low capacity regular PSU's (450W) to run the system off of. The picoPSU that Finksy is making would connect directly to one of the 6 pin cables from the 2k/4k power supplies, and thus eliminate the need for small PSU's to run the system, and upto 2/4 systems can be entirely powered by a 2k/4k server PSU. |

Where are you located? I can probably combine shipping & send to OP then he send to you locally if he's willing.save on shipping fees.I'll have few modded tonight n arrange shipping tmr. Thx op  Some stock arrived. I just need the time to mod them. Silver anti static bags are pico so this is where my tb85 motherboards went!!!!!! i was wondering who bought all the stock!!! +1 mine too |
