Good stuff, I would to this

"If you’re sure the problem is not the riser, the problem is the riser"

with

"If you are really sure it's not the riser, then its the USB cable connecting it"

Can someone clarify the requirement for Acorn in relation to PCIE bandwidth? I know the Acorn itself is M.2 but do the GPUs it accelerates have to be on full speed PCIE slots, ie. can Acorn accelerate GPUs that are on 1X risers?

I have AMD and NVIDIA rigs on Asrock BTC 110+ plus boards with various numbers of GPUs on them using 1x risers. This board has has an M.2 slot I can put an Acorn into but I am not clear if the Acorn requires the target GPUs to be on a faster PCIE connection

probably best to join the discord, I believe since every setup is a bit different it's hard to say:    https://discord.gg/jdw8jZB

THX- I am on this forum and Discord and finding it hard to navigate the info. I asked the same question in Discord and was referred to the FAQ, I think I will sit this one out

NOTE--now including more info on forks as I get it/you post it. Any coin not posted here check in the reddit thread at the bottom, I am only adding info on DEFINITE fork dates. Assume most coins will fork eventually, other than Komodo.

NOTE--added a field for untested so any Z9 owners who want to test can give a whirl. Pool runners or just general curious users can post pools they want to test in this thread and testers can respond, I will update as best I can...


Running for about 10 hours on Luckpool.net and everything is working perfectly. From the chatter on the site and a number of links provided there are many Z9s running well on the pool ranging from 15-17k SOLs

It seems like these new E3 can be upgraded once ETH will fork and still mine it. I heard this from "insiders"..

Can you provide more information? Is it using and FPGA versus ASIC? Is it really GPU cores inside?

How exactly could they upgrade it after the fact?
