1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Acorn M.2 FPGA based GPU Accelerator on: August 06, 2018, 06:53:17 AM
I can say this  preorders out to Nov = shaky
But no discounts offered on the Nov  = WTF
This is wrong and looks bad see below same price  for sept order and same price for nov order.



I guess in the crypto world we have become used to how the various ASIC miner manufacturers have done their pricing for pre-orders, and consider that "normal." Given that the ASICs are not particularly flexible in what they can mine, perhaps it's necessary to even out the order flow and entice new orders to keep the manufacturing lines busy and the coin rolling in.

Seems SQRL has opted for a different approach to pricing their offerings. Time will tell which method is the right one, or if there is room for different pricing models based on the flexibility of the mining hardware being offered for sale.

Alternatively - instead of a million conspiracy theories you could see that the price of components is only going up and most are extremely constrained right now, and building these things doesn’t magically go down in cost in November. There isn’t some huge profit margin to discount things just because you feel they should be discounted further out.

If you don’t want it - don’t buy it. If you’re skeptical, wait till the review units go out. It really is pretty simple. There is a massive amount of effort and activity behind making these, and the software, and the logistics. I welcome someone else here to step into that for even a day. We are regularly at the mercy of Xilinx and component supplies in the global supply chain as well.

We’re awaiting actual production line roll off starting next week, and some verification time after that to ensure that all is going smoothly. Exactly on-time.

Thanks for the reply .

 There is no conspiracy it is a fact that  you have not sold out Sept. batch at 329 according to your website

and you offer Nov batch at 329. The screenshot is simply taken from your website showing that.

Simple accounting shows  that is wrong .
So why offer it?
Your website has sept and should not list oct or nov  until sept is sold out.
All it does is create a chance that a buyer makes a mistake and gets his batches later at the same price.


This free marketing advice for your company.  You could follow it or simply resist my advice because it is your company and you ultimately make those decisions not me.

Has anyone made the mistake of ordering from Oct or Nov batches I don't know as I don't have that info.

Did your store create the chance that someone can order Oct or Nov vs Sept yes it did plain and simple fact.

Will you fix that?  I don't know.
Will you allow an order for Nov to be moved to Sept if someone fucked up I don't know?
Will you give a coupon to a Nov order because the buyer is delayed for 60 days I don't know.

Will you say phil in this case you are right we did create a chance for a buyer to have a 60 day delay thanks for pointing it out and we will fix it.

We checked our records and only 2 people placed orders in Oct or Nov we will move them up to Sept.
We will only list  Sept until it sells out then list Oct till it sells out then list Nov til it sells out.
I don't know.

Do you think I like posting here over and over and over pointing out issue after issue .

Fact is I don't and would rather not post here until the gear I ordered arrives.

Tell you what I stopped posting here. Until the gear I ordered arrives.

As I understand my order with squirrels it is for 1 215+ and 1 nest and is due for sept batch.
order number 482 is my squirrels order reads sept batch



As I understand my order with mineority it is for 1 215+ and is due in the august batch.

Order Number: 25 is my order from mineority

btw it does not say that it is August batch or Sept batch or Oct batch or Nov Batch  when order was placed it read August shipping so Hopefully it ships with the August batch.

WOW! What’s wrong with you? People like you are the reason why nobody can put out stuff for the community. Why don’t you learn vhdl coding and you can be up and running by 2023. If not wait just like everyone else.

I think this is possible only if all GPU's are installed into x16 slots, but I have not heard about the existence of motherboards with 6x PCIE x16 slots.
The best result I saw using I7-8700K and  1x1060 was 500KH @PCIEx16,  420KH @PCIEx4 and 230KH @PCIEx1.

I7-8700K. 1060@PCIEx16 + 1060@PCIEx4:

Can you make test with I7-8700K and 1070@PCIEx16?

Once the miner is optimised in the next few months it will be able to run at full speed on the GPU with low cpu load.  It's just the way the miner is currently written thats making it cpu / pci-e bus bound.

If you have the hardware and you don't mind swapping the cpu on then it makes sense to do a swap and mine at the best hash rate.

It's a combination of Cpu speed(DDR3 ram cpus take a big hit) 80% x pci-e width 15% x 5%GPU.

So with 2x GTX 1060 on a i7 you get more hash than 4x1060's on a i5 2500s . ~700h/s

More than 3 cards and the performance gains are reduces too..

I'm getting about 8 btm a day on i5 2500s with 1060 x 4. More profitable than most on crypto coinz.

So I have the option of getting a i72600 (max supported by Mining rig) or using two cards on 16x and 8x mode on a i7 3770. To get 700h/s. What's the best watt/hash? As I doubt my i7 is very efficient

Cheers


Are your 1060 connected by risers or on MoBo's pcie x8 and x4 ?
I haven't tried yet but I wonder what a Titan V could do ? Let see Smiley https://photos.google.com/photo/AF1QipMyd4FRSJjSdm1e_keWWcyPaVehZsxNDcfIFTLG
Well a Titan V gets about 965 h/s  Undecided   https://drive.google.com/open?id=1fXQSiTxUJEaeqGoiz3m9r0b4mmU6_1X6

Nvidia disables fan control by default. Once you run the script and reboot the CPU the check mark will appear and you can change the speeds as you wish.

# open terminal

sudo nvidia-xconfig --enable-all-gpus

sudo nvidia-xconfig --cool-bits=12

sudo systemctl restart lightdm.service

reboot

open NVIDIA X Server Settings and check Enable fan settings

I get 1kh/s with 1070 ti + 1080 both on 16x slots with i7 8700 . Problem is that when the miner is running i get one of my cards to boost up fan speed at 100% and noise is just ridiculus also think that fans will just blow out any moment,2nd card (the 1080 is running fine with default auto fan speed , dont know why the first card gets always 100% speed). I tried everything to set up fan speed accordingly but problem is I am trying to do it via SSH and I cannot do that. I can set only power limit / clocks .  Can anyone help with this situation ? How do you set fan speed through SSH ?

When I get home I will upload a script to control each GPU fan speed/overclock for Ubuntu. This is what your looking for right?
