Im new to the mining and computer building in general.
Been learning mainly from youtube.
Ive order 4 Onda B250 boards from alibaba with 1650watt PSU
CPU G4400
Ram 4GB Sodimm.
GPUs RX570 4gb
SMOS intended
this is my first rig build or computer build.
ive installed CPU, Ram all power including 3molex and 3sata and 1st GPU.
im having same problems as everyone else. no signal. CPU and GPU fans running.
Ive tried bridging the FP1 pwr pins for first boot.
I don't have SSD drive installed yet.
plan was to install windows from usb so i can use the rig to perform bios mod on GPUs first before switching to smos.
I have no video signal from board or GPU.
am i correct in assuming that i don't need harddrive installed to access bios or get video signal at least.
no signal no beeps just fans spinning.
whats the ram DDR4? DDR3? cause it needs to be 1.2v spec if DDR4 a lot of DDR4 sodimms aren't 1.2v..... This is key to the DDR4 version of the ONDA boards. My suggestion; power the board power, as well as cpu power cables. populate the first PCIE/SATA power plug (it feeds the important stuff as well as the first 16x slot). It is better to populate them all, but the one closest to the CPU is the one that powers the 16x slot and major system components in that area. flip on psu power; it should boot on its own right off. if not; flip power on psu off and wait for it to fully discharge (everything off). now press the cmos reset button near the USB ports. press it for 3-5 sec just to be on the safe side. then power the PSU back on and see if it still does the same thing. it should boot no issues with a good cpu/ram config. My guess it the memory; with the PCIE slots unpopulated and only the HDMI on board hooked up; it should POST.... If not; memory or CPU is the culprit.... possibly the board; but from what I have heard thus far; the DOA rate is quite low considering how many boards overall they have made thus far. |

The problem is it submits wrong shares regardless of the OC. Otherwise i would have just slowed it down with 100Mhz  ok, that was lost in translation when I read your reply earlier. Definitely a damaged ASIC; sadly, its usually from applying an overclock too skookem for the ASIC's quality. Fingers crossed on the RMA. |

Luckily, GPU mining =/= ETH. ETH made its decision, time to get over with it.
Actually, ETH === GPU mining. You're a legendary account and you should know by now that if and when ETH moves to POS. All those 8 million GPUs will mine the shit out of any and all those other coins you mentioned. Difficulty for the entire mining scene will increase and only the industrial miners with almost free electricity will remain. OK; this debate right here, is why I take everything said about what "must" and/or "is" with a pound of salt at the minimum. ETH has been GPU based; By intent. Yes. I have noticed many hundreds+ of people referring to their world ending when ETH tanks in price. Almost ALL of these people are AMD card owners. And the same thing happening when the Bitmain ASIC came out of the closet... I am AMAZED at how much people sank into ETH; especially given all of it's vulnerabilities and failures in the past (as well as future to be expected). If people truly understood the price compared to supply; and how easily it all can crumble away.... When ETH goes POS; people will begin to realize things....... Mark my words. Price will reflect it some time after the switch. People don't see the effect POS has on coins. It's likened to any "Investbox" type of deal..... I see downward spirals..... But again; this is only my intuition. Take it with a grain of salt. Its up to you to keep on track of what's possible and to seek it out; if profitability drives you to that point. At no one point did I consider shutting down when profitability dwindled; instead I did come research and kept my head above water. FYI guys; it looks like an xevan ASIC may be working stealthily in the background.... nethash seems to be outgrowing reality..... quickly. |

Finally had a chance to test it in 3D. Used Furmark.
With the stock clock it worked for more than 6-7 minutes with no issues.
However, when i pushed the clocks to the one i use on all other cards
it needed about 10 seconds before it showed artifacts and the driver restarted.
I tried other clocks then and if the core clock is above 100mhz it eventually crashes.
Then tried all possible combinations of TDP, mem and core clocks
while mining. It always displays errors for wrong calculations.
For one hour about 80% of the results were wrong.
Definately I'll try to RMA it.
See if you can RMA it; but I am under the impression that if it performs fine while not overclocked; its technically "in spec" although the ASIC has definitely seen batter days or just has never been of that good of quality. Hopefully they let you get it replaced! If not you will probable need to make a custom clock setting for it separate from the others. |

I know what the specs say for supported CPUs, but has anyone tried an 8th Gen 1151 CPU in this board?
B250 does not support 8th gen; same socket, different pinout. |

Can you please update and reshare using latest release? There was an update a few hours back. Thanks for the great work, bro.
and people wonder why other miners are closed source. Devs give the option and even teach how to do, what file to edit. I can compile XMR-Stak myself, and I do it for my AMD machine, disabling CUDA backend. But I need now a 2.4.3 Nvidia working version, and really could use a pre-compiled one because I would need to install a few gigs on that PC, namely MS Visual Studio and Nvidia CUDA. For someone who has done it, it's a 5 minute task. I can do it; when I am well enough. I am in no state to be trying this right now; I've been on Carisoprodol all weekend.... I am in no state until I come back to reality in another day or two as today is my last day of doses.... sorry guys.... |

thats only if you think that fluff and fancy websites are the product; which is how people act.
The coin is the coin; it does have a roadmap of sorts, and I personally could care less about the fluff. I'm interested in the actual project.

We will definitely consider this offer. Here are our listing requirements: https://upcoin.com/pages/listing Hope to hear from you soon! how is the developer still alive?need get back a little strain and do missing actions in their conditions this is a new opening exchange and there is not so difficult to add a BUB just need a little work on the site Yeah, the Dev goes through periods of silence due to his daily life.... I'm sure he will catch these messages soon =) I really hope to see bubble make it to other exchanges.... it will greatly increase it's market share for sure. |

Followed all instructions on the XMR-stak github to compile. This is the new Monero7 fork fix. *edit* 4/6/18 4:05PM PST Mining fine. Fork-compatibility assured.
Can you please update and reshare using latest release? There was an update a few hours back. Thanks for the great work, bro. Yeah, Ill be working till late (another 4-5 hours) then when I get home, hopefully Ill be able to recompile the binary from the new source for you guys. Stay tuned for an update. if not tonight or tomorrow, this weekend for sure. |

What fee pool take now fo exchange alts to btc?
STSminer will probably have to correct me, but AFAIK the pool fee is deducted once confirmed and earned. No more fees from there on. Any fees such as TX, or exchange fees are handled in the exchange process from the total sum(s) from what I gather.. Those are out of the pool's control; but as for the tX from the pool to you, the pool covers that fee out of his 2%. Thanks for the detailed explanation. This means that % commission should be looked at the main page for each algorithm or 2% + %looked at the main page for each algorithm?. Earlier there was a commission for the exchange of 5%, it is now gone? each algo; has its own listed % that the pool gets. The pool get that % of each block. I personally have never seen one of the zpool algos at 5%.... not sure what you are referencing. |

ahh, i didnt see the m.2 slot.
This config is just mainly targeted towards AMD and mid to low watt setups. Id expect something with room for 8 GPU to have more capability of supporting enough devices.
The 6 pin I was referring to was the pass-through ports to the GPU.... they really should have gone with a standard 8-pin PCIE style cable port and beef up the lines between the ports, as well as 8 pin for the power feed from the PSU. The sense pin does serve a purpose and simply grounding both pins is not ideal.

risers work; but are definitely a hassle with wires and reliability.
this board looks promising because its from a reputable manufacturer; but;
1) no mSATA or m.2 slot
2) regular 2-slot spacing. No bueno. Needs to be 2.5 minimum when cramming more than 3-4 cards together. the center gpu's will feel the pain.
3) Need for 12V power to CPU port; via a jumper wire from side connectors. Just route the damned thing on the board. Theres no extra features; you have real-estate to work with; and layers. USE THEM.
4) 6 pin PCIE; 8 pin is way better. Plus many GPU use 8 pin.
Onda got it better for sure IMHO. I wonder how thick the board is... how thick the main power traces are (the Onda boards are beefy power traces and thick boards; seriously beefy).

Not sure if this will help but it did for me. I recently had a network issue that caused a bad conndction to pools. It was down to Windoze10 updating while i was away. Whatever updates they did meant I then had to update the formware on my router. After that it has worked without issue. So try updating your router and see if that works.
yes, local routers carry a DNS cache; that can be a nuscence. Same as your machine. With windows 10, run a command prompt as admin, and type: "ipconfig /flushdns" you should have your local machine's DNS resolver cache reset. Second; encryption relies on a proper date; so make sure your system date is set properly (probably not it, but worth mentioning) |

are you considering promoting your currency with an investment box or listing on other exchanges?
IMHO IB will tank a coin... look at what happened to Liza... plus they make you gamble with dice for some coins.... IB is not a way to go. Let the bagholders play their games; in the end, most will loose out, and some will gain big. Yeah, it does tie up X amount of coins being in IB; creating a feeling of long term value; but that should be found in this coin itself; because, for the most part; BUB isn't about the coin... the coin is just a medium to further development support and use of the features in the end. I do want to see BUB listed on other exchanges eventually; because once they systems are in place, you will need easy access to it for use of it; and a lot of people have been burned or don't trust yobit due to their customer service tendencies so it really limits BUB's exposure to the masses. With these recent pumps, I see it worthwhile to use some of that gain to list elsewhere; I'm sure others would agree with me that exposure by means of other exchanges would be good, and temporarily seeing a dip in value would mean nothing if it were towards the project in this way.... Food for thought Mick  |

In the end guys i think i will try to flash my card WITHOUT connecting the 1 and 8 pins, since it seems to work in an easiest way without doing it.
Thank you all, i'll keep you posted
I hope it works for you. I've been silently reading the replies since yesterday. I'm sorry that some people here seem to have an instant attitude or no restraint from being crabby..... when I first saw the two pages and started reading back, I was dumbfounded at what I had to read just to get to the status of your issue.... |

also, traceroute the ip for them. see where in the hops your connection is lost.
it does state connection refused... seems as if the pool replied in a manner (weather that reply is simply a refusal for a TCP connection)

Not sure why you closed the last thread. Wouldn't call my post useless spam.
As you mentioned, the instructions to compile and change the DevFee are clearly outlined on github.
There is always a risk in downloading unknown files. The safest option if you want to change the DevFee is to compile the program yourself - I'd encourage people to at least try.
Jared seems like a nice enough guy and I'm sure would help users out if they have issues but again, safest option is to compile yourself. Trust the code - beware of people.
I wanted to have mod control of my thread; repeats of the same crap are just annoying and useless as the second reply was. Of course, with anything precompiled, it's at your own risk or your own ability to research the source (provider) or the material (app to download) =) And to make it clear for commenting things: This text is not commented out
/* But everything between these symbols is commented out */
as well as this text or code is not commented out // But everything after the two '//' is commented out for this line only.
not this line, this line is not commented out Hopefully that helps serve as a primer for people that don't understand C code type comment fundamentals. |

NICE JOB  Do you add other coin in? TRTL not work (light) i try with criptonight_lite but reject XHV not work (heavy) i try with sumo but reject I dont think so; it was the first xmr-stak release for the cryptonight7 fork. I didn't look into any of the other algos, my only focus was a zero devfee XMR miner; cause most of em have fees and negatives with switching to a dev pool. |
