I don't recall but what happens to the TX fees. Does he pool keep them, the miner who finds a block gets them ?
|
|
|
|
I know s0br is working on improving the pool and is busy but it would be nice to see him reply to emails/support requests.
I honestly didn't think of that so my bad lol I guess it's more wishful thinking I might be one of the lucky few whop win an S3 with my bday being the 30th. |
|
|

Still would love to see new news on the S3 winners or I'm somehow f'n up real bad and just missing it lol

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=671189.msg8507354#msg8507354In addition of the above linked stuff, the one miner on 243.75 that's still doing beastly ~490 has insane RMP fan speeds in excess of 12/13k. I don't know if this is a readout fluke but (have seen others reports these an speeds) that machine does have lower temps. The other two "slow" machines that are mid to low 470Gh/s with slightly higher temps than the "beast". Is there anything I can do remotely to tell their fans to run a bit faster in the 12k + RPM range to see if that will bring temps down and speeds up ?If not I will have to talk to my host about alternative cooling methods like say removing the cases which should drop temps (two to three points) to the range I'm hoping for / like seen on the one machine doing ~490 with high RPM's. Still wondering if anyone here has tried alternative cooling methods like just removing cases and how that worked for you. Ty. Still looking for an answer on the bit in red if anyone knows whether or not it's possible, Ty. removing the cases will NOT drop the temp because you are getting rid of the wind tunnel effect. Dropping cases AND putting fans on both sides providing airflow at a right angle to the hashing board might work on a miner without case, but did not work on miners with cases on (I tried that thinking that i will evacuate extra heat on the case). let us know if you will try "naked" S3 with a couple of fans on the side. Well the whole caseless thing was an idea to entertain but if I could ramp up the fans RPM's intentionally then it would still achieve a slightly desired effect. So can the fans be remotely controlled from SSH to run faster like they would if temps went up some ? Or at least I think they speed up when temps rise. My one machine who has fans in excess of 10k is still doing ~490, it's the others who have wavering speeds if you check out the link from the reply you quoted / replied to. |

Hi all,
I just added heat sinks to one side of my Antminer S1. I wonder how much the extra cooling will help? Anyone every play with the cooling? I'm not planning on over clocking the S1.
unless your having cooling problems I don't think it will do much if anything. I myself penciled modded all my S1's down to 140GHs and dropped 200 watts per miner. I never did understand the whole pencil mod thing, what exactly is it and why do it ? |

Could someone please provide the code to be entered into the scheduled tasks of the gui, that would restart my miner every 6 hours?
Like the other guy said it was on page 250 but here it is for anyone else who might want a quick easy glance. So some of my miners require a restart about every 12-17 hours - they occasionally show up with the dreaded "x" but then upon a restart they are all good to go,
I'm really tired of having to restart them with the gui, is there anyone out there that can help me with an automated reboot option in the
"Scheduled Tasks
This is the system crontab in which scheduled tasks can be defined."
that i can save and autorestart the miners - once or twice a day lets say
12midnight and 12 midday?
Regards
loki.
I just added this to scheduled tasks under existing line 0 8 * * * /sbin/reboot 0 20 * * * /sbin/reboot Others suggest this 0 8,20 * * * /etc/init.d/cgminer restart Restart being safer, but reboot is quicker. I really see the drop off in my hashing graph with restart, but not with reboot. |

Re reject and stale %, I assume it's just reject / (accepted + rejected) and stale / (accepted + stale)? The numbers pretty close to what I get from the API.The log bugs me too. I tried a few things already to solve that, and nothing has completely worked yet.As for the 1 of 4 ... I know why. Oversight on my part. They aren't saving correctly, they all get plopped into one entry. So for now, don't shut it down!  The other things, aside from the name thing, I already have fixed in dev. M Wish I could help but I don't know the math used for those values.Maybe someone else here can help ?I was doing the whole shutdown thing to test... when I started messing with it I still had old reg values showing up and had to delete the whole Ant folder from regedit. Wont mess with anything else til a new versions out.As for everything else, sounds good ;-) |

Sounds good M, here's one other thing I think might help. At least with me lol.
I noticed the log reads old to new and you need to scroll down to see new items, might you consider flipping it so the new log items are always at he top so to see older items one would need to scroll down ?
Oh, and about the name thing... it shows fine in config. It's just on the "main" page where the stats are seen does the name show with all the other stuff.
Also, I closed the program out and only one of the four miners showed up when I restarted it.

It is working on the new FW. Just uploaded the new FW to all 11 of my S3's. Thanks mdude!! Love this software. Saves me a lot of a headache!!!
The only thing not working is the web scraping. but M wanted to understandably work on the API first since it's what most people use. Except in cases like me with people who have machines outside of the home network that need monitoring. I think you missed a message? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=596178.msg8513191#msg8513191Web scraping works for me. But I'm not able to simulate your environment, so I'm not 100% certain it'll work with your config. Just waiting for you to try it and tell me. M Looks like it works, is there a way to omit the full URL and just show the IP ? So right now the Name might look like this... 1.2.3.4:5678/cgi-bin/luci/;stok=etc. etc. etc. I think all we rally need shown is just 1.2.3.4:5678. Also, I noticed when web scraping these fields are blank... Diff, Rej%, Stale% Here's some other things I noticed. The freq values are rounding up and not showing true values... like 237.25 shows as 238 and 243.75 shows as 244. I know this might not be a big deal to a lot of people but I'd like it if it shows true and not rounded values. There's a few other curiosities I will touch on later, don't want to overload one reply lol This also keeps coming up from time to time... Unhandled exception has occurred in your application.

Received a PM from Stunna. I'm out.
It was nice to be part of this. good luck with PrimeDice!
I'm surprised with you being a hero member an all with some TR under your belt. When did you get he PM ? Last I knew if no one received a PM in 48 hrs from the original culling announcement that you were fine. Activity of 490. Probably was not a hero member as of August 17th. If that's the case then he may be able to get back in. |

Ok, so were 3 days 5 hrs in on the 243.75's and I've noticed some drops in hash. I know machines have variance of +/- 10% sometimes but it seems like a steady but slow decline. What's weird is the time passed being only 2 days and change, compared to say a month or something.
Anyone else get this with OC'd machines ?
Power supplies. They're probably close enough to the edge of the kind of power the S3's like (beefier than they draw) that just staying hot for a long time is enough to suck hashing power. Do you have 2 PSU's on each OC'd unit, or only one? And are you using two separate 6-pin PCI power connectors for each blade (not daisy-chain style) or only one? My suggestion is to either cool the PSUs and see if your rate goes up, or use more/better PSUs. Poor power doesn't always show up in x's or -'s now that I've been playing a bit with my good S3 and just got 60 GH/s back by adding another PSU. Worth a try! My friend hosting them said and sent pics that each one is on a singular supply of 650W or greater with each miner using all four power ports. Should I find out the specific PSU not that I think it matters with each one being 650w or greater. Edit: --- And are you using two separate 6-pin PCI power connectors for each blade (not daisy-chain style) or only one? I actually just shot him an email about this but do you mean four cables using four ports on both the miner and PSU ? I also dont get the beefier thing. So I just heard back from my host. He said hat each miner is in deed powered by all four ports on both the PSU / miner using four individual power cables. I have since asked him to please find out the specific make / model of each of these PSU's so the rail voltage info etc. can be looked up to see if maybe, just maybe, it is the PSU's which is questionable a this point since it still could just be system variance / an OC thing. Still no word yet from my host on specific PSU's but I don't think it will matter and here's why. I've been keeping an eye on the miners, doing refreshes every so often. Here's what I've noticed. It seems when I drop some MH one of the blade temps rise. Similar effect when I gain some MH, a temp goes down. So it would seem my issue is temperature based. With that said, if this proves to be right and more time well tell as I continue to watch the numbers. So... what if any alternative cooling methods can be used on overclocked S3's (237.5 and higher) ? |

So does this mean you got your S3 then for testing ?
Also hope to see S3 web scraping soon so I an use this app with my out of home hosted machines with unique ports.
Yes, it arrived yesterday, with one fan a little mangled complements of UPS, but otherwise fully functional. I intend to add web scraping soon. Most people use the API, and I only had so much time to code tonite, so API came first. M Sounds good, so there is hope for me then heh. Using the API would be nice bu when previously discussed it sounded all too difficult with externally hosted machines. |

They will ROI within 2.5 months as long as you ordered enough of them to beat the curve.
Someone needs to work on their math skills, if one ant is unprofitable then 1000 of them will be as well as long as the cost of running them /ant stays the same. well it depends. 1 s-3 and 1 evga 1300 for your psu won't roi. 3 s-3's and 1 evga 1300 for psu might roi . you did say as long as cost to run them does not change but maybe the poster was thinking like I just wrote I am running 3 S3 (237.5 mhz) on a single EVGA1300 using PCI-e splitters on two machines (so each has 4 connectors). What was your wattage on EVGA1300 per S3 when running at 250mhz. I wonder if I have enough power to bump all three to 250mhz. 390 watts on a seasonic platinum I do 231.25+231.25+237.50 and pull 1110 watts on the evga 1300 . you could try 243.25 I think that would have enough juice. Don't you mean 243.75 ? That's what you told me and what I'm using on 3 of 4 miners. |

I just found out about getting paid for your sig line so I'm curious; how much BTC was Primedice paying out last year before the big November boom, when BTC was just over $100 per coin?
I wanna know just what kind of BTC I missed out on all this time so I can feel even worse than I already do. lol.
Cheers!
I don't know about Primedice but bit777 used to pay 1.2 BTC at it's top. uhm...how many posts do you need to get 1.2btc?? More than Stunna will pay for since AFAIK, it's capped at 400 posts and for Sr Member it's 0.001 per post meaning we can only earn up to 0.4 per period. |
