Weird. I checked in on my cube today and found the fuse all melted, still worked though. Then this thread shows up in my "Show new replies to your posts."
I had the same thing happen to my cube, was working fine, came back a couple of hours later and the fuse was smoked, cooked the main board pads. I had to solder an external wired fuse holder in to get it working (it actually cooked holes through the fiberglass main board). I doubt it is caused by an over supply, that should just blow the fuse. In my case I suspect a faulty connection that caused the fuse holder to over heat.

Yes, I'm lucky, I have free power, I "could" run as many cubes as the house circuits could handle (240v ac) Been wondering if I could run an Antminer and a cube on a corsair GS 800 psu.

Now for some depressing reading.
Jan 5 -Jan 12 0.1 bt Jan 12 - Jan 22 0.1 bt Jan 22 - 3 Feb 0.1 bt Feb 3 - Feb 18 0.1 bt Feb 18 - 9 Mar 0.1 bt Mar 9 - 4 Apr 0.1 bt Apr 4 - May 11 0.1 bt
Single cube over clocked, running 24/7 at 38793 GHs.
So, will it ever generate 2 whole bitcoins?

Statistically, you could find a block in the first 30 seconds, then again it might not happen till after the end of the universe. And it will get to the point where a single cube is not capable of generating enough in a pool to pay for the power used to run it. Doubling down doubles the return for double the cost. So, there is a perverse logic in going for broke.
So, question, how long will it take a single cube to generate 25 bitcoins? (the only valid answer is twice as long as half of it)

Thanks! No, it's definitely not a power issue, I had it hooked up to a AX1200 and a AX1200i. I'll test that out this weekend.
Note that ATX PSUs are supposed to have separate "rails", each with over current protection. Thus a larger PSU has more "rails" (PCI-E) connectors but each has separate over current protection. Adding another scenario: a) The relay closes b) The PSU over current protection drops the voltage. c) he Cube sees the voltage drop and opens the relay. d) The PSU no longer has an over current condition, restores the voltage. e) The Cube sees sufficient voltage, closes the relay This repeats and the relay buzzes. I would try adding a pair of large caps (10,000 uf) to the PCIe connectors as per the earlier parts of this thread,if it is voltage drop condition and it is only while the cube is starting then that may fix the problem, if, however the PSU cannot supply the continuous voltage necessary then that will make no difference.

I'm curious. My BE Cube is running at 37200 on high. Can I make that higher? I see some numbers running around 420, can all run that at the same time?
It's a bit of potluck with the exact speed you get on HI. All you can do is switch to Hi and make sure there are no bottlenecks in the system. My cube runs consistently at 38,7xx with slushs proxy running on a raspberry PI

This company? appears to be a scam http://www.xtrememiners.net/Based in Germany. It is, apparently, a legal requirement in Germany to have a contact phone number and a tax file on business web sites. Company address is bogus. Phone conversations are apparently being done through VOIP and are routed from Hong Kong / China via the USA. Email responses are 6 to 8 hours out of sync with Euro times.

Hello all, I have just bought my 1st Asic Cube, i have it setup and running the proxy (on my windows PC)as per descriptions on here, all good so far! but i would like to run in with my Rasp Pi, i have configured the proxy from slush and everything connects ok and the cube starts to run now, my Pis CPU goes to 100% and stays there, and only half the cubes processors run and its producing around 15gh max, can anyone help with this? i have tried to use bfgminer but this simply will not connect! any ideas as i know people are running 4/5 cubes from there pis.
Thanks Steve
You need to provide more information. Whats the cube setup, what config options are used on the proxy What else is on the network etc

Now, I don't even hear a clicking sound at start. I removed all the blades, still no click. I see only 1 yellow light (next to the PCI connection), but no red light (next to Ethernet). Will it help if I replace the PSU, or is this cube dead forever ?
You should have 2 green power LED's I presume the it s one for each PCIE plug. I am not sure if the green LEDS are pre fuse or post. If the LEDs are powered post fuse then it may be the fuse that is the problem. In my cube the fuse holder or the soldering to the MB was faulty, the fuse over heated and destroyed itself, the fuse holder and burned a hole in the MB. I had to solder in an external fuse holder to resurrect the unit. And you pretty much HAVE to strip the cubes BEFORE powering up to ensure that the blades have not become dislodged in transit and that the heatsinks are secured properly. The latter problem will cause overheating and the former could smoke the whole unit

And the cube should be:
IP: 192.168.1.13 Mask: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 192.168.1.1 WEB Port: 8000 Primary DNS: 192.168.1.1 Secondary DNS: 8.8.8.8 Pool Ports: 8332,8332 Pool Addresses: 192.168.1.10,192.168.1.10 Miners user:pass: IamCANADIAN013_JeffWh013:1,IamCANADIAN013_JeffWh013:1
The real problem is this IamCANADIAN

My immediate take on this is it's a power problem but not necessarily the power supplies. Are the PSU's all plugged into the same circuit (they may be on different plugs which are on the same wiring circuit). Thats a lot of amps to drag off one circuit especially if you are 110 volts (rule of thumb is, if you double the voltage you halve the amperage needed to do the same amount of work)

your path\mining_proxy.exe -q -rt
That will, by default connect to slush's pool. The -q switch reduces (not stops) the amount of crud sent to the monitor and the -rt switch allows for variable difficulty which reduces the network traffic and the load on the server.

i ran that but it gave an error
File "c:\Python26\lib\site-packages\py2exe\boot_common.py", line 92, in <module> ImportError: No module named linecache ImportError: No module named zipextimporter ImportError: No module named argparse
There's more text in there but I think you get the idea...am I supposed to have a bunch of other stuff installed and running?
i'm not so clued up on python, sorry. you can run the stratum proxy with the following command line "mining_proxy" it defaults to slush's pool so you only "NEED" the port settings for other pools. You can also add the -q switch, reduces the amount of crud it prints to the screen and the -rt switch, allows the difficulty to vary according to the power of your cube. Have you got the Python runtime installed?

Try setting your default gateway to 192.168.1.1

I would strip both cubes, label one MB "A" the other "B" and the blades "A1,A2 .....B1, B2" etc then move all A's blades to B and B's to A, try that if the fault moves to the other MB you have a faulty blade, if it not you have a faulty MB. If it is a blade that is faulty, plug each blade in and test till you identify the faulty one. Then hit up your supplier.

Fixed it, turns out one of the blades was toast, i took it out and saw the top left corner around one of the capacitors was scorched.... oh well i guess i can live without one blade
You could always try and replace the scorched cap and see if the blade runs, I would wait and see if they will replace it, if not try and repair it, you have nothing to lose.
Since i'm connetting to my stratum proxy server, how to configure it to use two differente pools?
with a comma , In the pool address's you will have 2 IP address's separated with a comma. If you are only using 1 pool you would have that pool's IP address entered twice separated with a comma. If you want to use a different fall back pool just change one of these IP address's to point to the second pool. The pools button on the interface allows you to cycle through the pools. You may be able to put in more than 2 address's, haven't tried it tho

I have 4 cubes, was running only 2 while waiting for a 2nd PSU. Got the second PSU (Corsair RM850) and plugged it all in, everything starts up and runs ca
This is the output, all are running on a BFGminer proxy, have swapped power supplies, network cables, split the cube and reseated/tightened up all the blades... just this one cube is behaving this way
Anyone else seen this happen or heard of this happening
Thanks all
My take on that is that it is starving for work, try pointing that one cube to a stratum proxy of it's own

problem solved. corsair vs550 cant even support one cube,please take note guys changed to corsair cs600,now working well everything. is my cube running good ? i dont know read this. That is just verbage. Check the status page for your cube. For low clock you want no X's and a hash rate of around 32 For Hi clock, again, no X's and a hash rate of around 38. The hash rate will build slowly but should settle in under 10 minutes

I have an Apple Airport Extreme router. The subnet is fixed at 255.255.255.0 and cannot be changed.
Direct connect the cube to the Computer. Change the IP address to whatever format you have decided on then reconnect thru the router
