Are you sure that the 741's are coming?? Those were end of life and I'm pretty sure everything is sold. did you mean 821's or 841's?

I'm gonna say they'll take a hard pass. The likely response would be something along the lines of moisture/environment as opposed to their hardware.

There are places that I think do out of warranty repair but it's at your own expense.

#4 on the list is the out of warranty repair in the US. I've never used them so I can't speak to the service.

It's hard to gauge how often you will need to change it out. It might be worth having a dehumidifier, or at least a sensor monitoring the humidity in the room to give you an indication of when the desiccant has stopped doing it's job.

It will also help with the moisture that isn't being absorbed. Then like I said you should be able to place the desiccant on the hot side in the path of the airflow and the warm air should remove the moisture and exhaust with the hot air. This is the process of regenerating your desiccant. You would pretty much just repeat this process as often as is required.

Like I said I've never personally set this up but I think it would benefit you and your machines, hopefully it works out well for you.


If you don't mind me asking are you near the coast in BC is that where the problem is coming from ?

Thanks, I'll give it another try tonight.

Better known as their AI project. 

I'll check that out. Those are the numbers I was expecting, probably shouldn't have switched to a new OS and coin in the same go. Thanks

EDIT: Calling it for the night, could not get sgminer to launch properly on Windows for the life of me. Kept saying sgminer.exe isn't a recognized command, or something or other, to late tonight, try again tomorrow

Any of the raven miners here using HIVE and amd (rx 570) cards?

I'm getting pretty garbage numbers ( 120kh/S per card)

I went back to stock bios. I'm using miningpanda pool.

I'm going to switch pools and maybe even try using SMOS( first time) to see if I can get better result.

I'd rather find a solution than abandon mining the coin. Any suggestions would be great

Can I please beg for politeness from all you amazing members; as a Canadian I will be expelled on an ice flow if I do not reach 200 by April 2nd.

Thank you sirs, and sirettes for all your kind consideration.

Sorry if this is off topic I didn't know where to post this

I just switched over to Hive and thought it was a great time to mine Raven as well.

My problem is my 5 RX 570 cards are only pulling 430 KH/S total

Looking into it I should be able to get 5 MH/S each.
I reset my bios to stock to try and help and the improvements were minimal.

Also I am using miningpanda for the pool.
Any help?

Yeah, you definitely don't want them near the intake for the miner itself.

What I'm suggesting is where the intake air for your mining room is should have the desiccant located there. This way as the air enters the room the moisture is removed. You could have a wire rack at the air intake with these packets hanging off it. Again I don't know what you have for a set up but this would cut down on the moisture in your air enough that it should no longer be a problem for your miners.

good luck

I don't know what your set up is. If you feel a dehumidifier can't keep up have you thought about placing a dessicant inline with your air intake?

I've never had to set anything up like this myself but it's what is used in boilers to prevent moisture.

What ever it is that you use if you have a hot side to your setup you can use the exhaust air to regenerate your dessicant.

Good to know, was just wondering what was wrong with my little farm.
Thanks for the update.

Thanks Phil. The t9 is what I was thinking. Looking at everything though just don't think I can swing it at the moment.

Thanks for the numbers though

Does the coupon come with any stipulation on minimum price before the discount is applied?

Thanks for the offer either way

1) No it is not Merit abuse. People can decide to send out Merit as they see fit. So if Searing decides that the thread was worth 49 to them than that's where it ends. Merit is subjective.  If it where Merit abuse you would have been able to quote the broken rule.

2) Anyone who would have been tagged in those instances would have either been proven to have alt accounts or had a history of back and forth merit trading.

You did delete the post and ask for the thread to be deleted, you then changed it up slightly and slid it Into this thread. What Silent26 suggested was all of your random and researched suspicions/accusations should be in the same thread. If I'm not mistaken could you not have just locked the thread and left it at that?

This is not that, you created another thread for a single situation and then slid this one in there.

I've already addressed your "suspicions" the fact remains you do not need community support. If you want to sling mud have the balls to stand by it, come up with your own proof, don't just toss this out there and ask the community to decide  for you.

Your meaning is clear your process needs improvement. You think that by continuing down this path you will be merited continuously and rank up. I doubt it people will get sick of all your posts, as is represented by your "neutral" I would say.
Don't bother trying to explain it further I have said my piece do with it what you will.

So now that you've tried to delete the original thread  you made you are putting it somewhere else.

Here is the original thread OP  deleted almost this exact same post except that you have less blatantly suggested searings account has been sold.

://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3220573.0

Why couldn't you keep the original post??


EDIT: quoted the post this time so you can't just delete it. While you might be trying to do some good, stop tossing mud sround hoping it will stick. If you want to keep this up do your own research before posting

Wow. You are pretty far off base. Searing states that they had sent a merit but didn't really bother learning what the system is about.

I can't speak to their habits most of the time, but I do see them as more of a scam buster from what I remember seeing around the forum.

So I gave them a straight forward answer and left it at that, as they stated they had a large amount of smerit to be able to provide and they chose that particular thread to merit OP.  Which is great so that OP could co to he their service. A service I'll remind you that you have posted in.

You might want to focus more on creating something of quality for the forum rather than sulking around meta trying to burn people


EDIT: Your suspicion is baseless

The asic resistant technology is just that; resistant.

Not asic proof. Unfortunately with enough time and money bitmain has been powering through with it's Asics development using a well funded R&D team.

The bright side their Asics as reported in don't seem to be a game changer , unless priced ridiculously low. I can't find the article at the moment but I think I saw something like 1000 to 1200w and 220 mh/s; with a cost over 3000$.

The numbers might be wrong can't remember for sure. If I find the article I'll update the post. Also at last check I think the ethereum community is pushing to fork against the miner. Fingers crossed.

I'll give it a go. Regardless of how it turns out thanks for offering the service.

Also if you run out of smerit I'd be willing to send some out.

Thanks. Glad the explanation helped. Well done supporting OP's thread
