3,14MHash is bad
It is what I got... As I said, one design reports 12MH/s but does not work... |

At this time, I see such products as a "promise", which is always delayed for whatever reason. I read a few posts in this forum about people who bought products "in development" and are still waiting. |

Basically i want to know what a full miner roll out fits on, how many LEs i'll go to digi-key and look something up and go from there
Hi, The Altera DE1 has 18K LE. The non-optimized version fits using the factor 4 in the roll(?), for a total of 16K LE used. I get 3.10 MH/s. The makomk_mod version fits using factor 2 (but all works are rejected, I don't know way!). It reports 12MH/s. |

Everyone here can be assumed to be smart
Many of the questions posted here by newbies would seem to fly in the face of that statement. Then when you have the occasional ignorant douchecanoe of a noob who flies off into a sandy-vagina impotent net-rage because someone dares to tell him "go look it up, man, there's a few metric fark-tonnes of info out there!", or the more-than-occasional persistently dumb noob who gets his thread locked/deleted, and then immediately creates another thread with almost exactly the same question, just worded differently, etc, and you might begin to understand why forum vets are sometimes a little testy when a noob asks the same question that's already been asked (and answered) in 4 threads on the first page of the newbie board. Most noobs seem to want a turnkey bitcoin moneymaking program. "tell me where i can download a program that'll make me 10 bitcoins a day with my laptop!" kind of B.S. or they start mining without doing any reading at all, and then come on the forums to bitch and moan about how they are making almost nothing with their nVidia GPU, or CPU mining on their laptop... at which point they get all ignorant and abusive when told that the ship has sailed on cpu and gpu mining, and the devices that CAN mine effectively will take months to deliver if they order right now. They don't want to hear that bitcoin mining is a marathon, they want it to be a sprint to that 25BTC reward, and when they find out it's not a get-rich-quick-and-buy-that-new-gold-plated-buttplug scheme, they get their panties in a twist. Nothing news here... it is the same in all forums I have been participating for years. I don't complain, and since there is no way to prove you are an experienced user and know the netiquette, got to be patient... and participate. Come one, those 4 hours that never ever come!!! |

you may have over clocked it too far  Thanks for the guess, but I doubt it since it was a code optimization, not an overclock. But that is me saying it. I will try to contact the authors when I am allowed by the forum. |

Hello, anybody there? FPGA Guys, Maybe makomk can get to know this post, since I am unable to contact him! I am a newbie! I have one Altera DE1 board, and have compiled the miner and it runs at 12MH/s. But all works are rejected at this rate. Using the non optimized code, I was able to mine some micro coins, at 3.10MH/s. Want to improve the FPGA miner? I can beta test it if you are willing to take a look at this issue. Any advice on why it is rejecting all works and how to fix it? Cheers. |

Once you get a Dev Board, and the miner (like the one I mentioned above) to load in the board, you are all set.
The dev boards comes with usb and power adapter.
The software to program the board comes along in a CD on you can download the latest versions, that is not an issue.
If you are going for fun and to discover new things, even one DE1 is enough (although it can do only 3.10 MH/s). But you can learn things.
I was able to compile an optimized version, which runs at 12MH/s but all works are rejected, so I am no sure how much can this little boards give back.

Hi everyone, let me make it quick. I am thinking about building an FPGA rig. I am not completely stupid, able to build my own computer and so on. I am thinking about building an FPGA rig, for fun. Just with one or two units at first. Maybe more later. This is more for me getting into this than being super profitable at first. So, does anyone have an answer to: What you need to start? The packages and variations confuse me. How does a really good demo look like? Do you have a system set up that is paraded on the net where one can learn about every part necessary, from ground up? Maybe a video where someone assembles a rig from the start? This is nerd heaven for me, so I would be totally grateful for someone pointing to one of these. I have taken my stabs at vendor sites (Enterpoint to Ztex), some blogs and youtube videos. But I don't yet get it. While I ordered an ASICs miner from BFL and am praying that they ship one day, the whole "Build your own electronics supercomputing rig" is kind of more fun to me... Nothing against lazy hashing, but, the whole "mining" feeling comes better with building rigs, I think  Hi, What do you intend to do? Buy a ready-to-go FPGA miner? Or try using a development kit? A just started using the second option, since I already have two boards from other hobbies, so I can learn a bit and understand how it works. If you check https://github.com/fpgaminer you will see there is an opensource fpga miner. The easier way to go is buy one of the supported boards by this fpga miner (such as DE2-11) and load the compiled project. Easy. Other way to go is buy a cheaper board that you know will works with the fpga miner, and make the required changes in the code. I started using by DE1. It is showing something like 3.10 MH/s. Hope this helps a bit. Cheers. |

This newbie section is too crowded. I seems almos unhelpful to post newbie questions here, since your post is going to the third page in minutes ! (ok, one hour or so).
There is simply no time to get the visibility required so someone can answer.
Any way, rules are rules, and it may exist here for some reason.
And thanks for this meeting point.
Cheers.

Ok, i have my answer... I left the thing working and went sleep. Now, just checkit out, and I have some 0.00005292 bitcoins in my wallet. I am going to by the World!  Cheers. |

Hello guys,
I have these boards and just today discovered FPGAs can be used for mining bitcoins... So I am testing how it works.
I have build the FGPA Bitcoin Miner for my Altera DE1, and when i run th mine.bat I have the following output, and would like to know what is the meaning of that.
What those errors means? Is the boarding receiving any data? Is it trying to process?
How can I know?
I appreciate any help.
Cheers.
