You already have a thread of your own about this. Coming in and hijacking someone elses thread is not kosher.

If you really want to set it free you need to run linux. You are already stating you get weekly crashes.

E.G. This is one of my 6 card 1070 rigs:

[Agent: GMiner11153 (Running) Total HR: [2.67Kh/s] Miners running [1] GPUs [AAAAAA]]
[11:42 AM][Uptime: 131d 15:58][root@GMiner11244(10.10.111.53)]

They are on sale directly for $2320 on bitmains website.

I love how people just make the most random bullshit up so they can pile on the "whine about bitmain" bandwagon.

Bitmain isnt even accepting BTC....


The falling BTC price makes BCH more profitable to mine even if BCH prices havent moved. There are multiple switching pools out there that will move mass amounts of hashrate to BCH when it is more profitable.

Ill have to dig out my documentation to confirm but that is what I remember from the hardware training I received from bitmain last year in China.

The temp sensor of the s7 is baked into the chip. From what I recall it pulls the temp data from the very last chip in the string (chip 45 closest to the regulator)

This is a bitcoin mining section. You dont switch coins when all that you mine is bitcoin.

I mean someone has to have some data on these chips right?

Not a penny of it. Selling to cover monthly mining expenses is normal, but if you are converting everything to fiat right away you are robbing yourself of so much money. Thats why  Isay if you are selling it all off you are doing it wrong. Always mine for the future.

I kind of feel like that claimed 39mh on ethereum is bunk. 25mh/s is what you would expect from an unmodified gtx 1070 so I would say you are closer to a real number than the OP

Uninformed people read these clickbait bullshit article about the death of cryptocurrency and believe it to be true. What we are seeing is the prices settling down after a period of unprecedented growth.

For example lets look at ethereum:

11/1/2017 - $305
12/1/2017 - $444
1/1/2018  - $750
1/30/2018 - $1156

This shows crypto is stronger than ever. It also shows how valuable the token has become. When a token rises in price, people start mining it, pushing profitability down as the difficulty rises. This is a normal function of the ecosystem and in no way means there is a problem or a crash about to occur.


Also, if you are using whattomine and chasing profitability day by day, it shows you have no understanding of how to properly mine for future profit. People mining aren't looking to convert their coins the second a payment hits your wallet (if you dont do this the whattomine calculations become increasingly irrelevant after a few hours). You should be mining coins with the intention of keeping them so that you can profit in a large way later on down the road. A shortsighted approach to mining will cause nothing but pain.

E.G. I was mining ETH when it was $8.50 per token. I held onto all of those tokens and now they are worth ~$1100 each.

Mining is a long game, plain and simple. If you fret over it daily you will be miserable and probably not want to continue.

Skimping on the motherboard will cause you no end of headaches. Especially random chinese manufacturers, you will have zero support, and it will be almost impossible to find proper english drivers/BIOS flashes.

Just do your research on this site, there are doezens of motherboards reviewed/running/etc and you should be able to find one that suits your needs without breaking the bank.

Hey Nasty, I just have a general solar question if you dont mind. My father has a 32 panel solar setup running his off the grid house. He has had nothing but problems with his 20 lead acid batteries and it costs almost double what that powerwall costs to replace them. Would you recommend one of these as a replacement for a traditional battery setup? If not, do you know of any other battery setup that will last longer than these crap batteries hes been stuck with?

The control board will work on all cards. Even the 54 chip firmware will run and hash with a 45 chip board, it will just show 9 x's on the hash board status because its looking for 54. And while I dont recommend it, you can even mix and match 45 and 54 chip boards on a single controller. I have done it on accident a few times.

GMO just barely got their 12nm miner functional, 7 is still a LONG ways out

If samsung enters the Bitcoin ASIC market, there will be a rise in price that offsets the addition of hashrate. ASIC mining has long left the smaller miners behind, it has already moved into the datacenter territory.

All the dumbass people that buy an asic then spend 3 months trying to make it quieter and cooler running it in their home rather than running it in a proper server farm will cry, but all the real companies will welcome the additional hardware.

If your board works and is proven to be compatible with the s9 controller I have a couple thousand chips available.

Where are you reading that? Every single article says Samsung is doing it on their own and they will be direct competition to bitmain....

I am really surprised people are buying these. They should be called the T9-

T9 - 11.5th - 171 chips - 1450w - 0.126 j/gh
T9+ 10.5th - 162 chips - 1520w - 0.144 j/gh

It is worse in every way.

The answer is real simple. The APW3 puts only 1200w out when running on 110v. While your s9 may be running on that you are pushing the power supply dangerously hard and it will fail, if you are unlucky it will take out some of your s9 hardware with it. So dont be dumb and burn up your hardware because you dont understand how electricity and power supplies work.
