Bump

Sounds like someone wrapped claymore and/or optiminer to remove the fee.. There a a couple of ways one could accomplish it.. That would explain the lack of details

Gray Matter has shown there is a healthy viable market for GPU chassis like this. Not sure why the haters are the first to drop in on your thread. Good luck with the project.

Sapphires have a voltage bump in their roms so they will consume more power out of the box.

I missed this question earlier in the thread, it comes up a lot, however not currently interested in selling just the case.

Not looking to get into a pissing match over how close or different they are, obviously dumping the same components on the table, and fitting them in a 4U case in the least cost model results in a similar layout, no way around that. This case has a different face plate (laser cut aluminum) to negate the use of fan grills with integrated rack ears, from the pictures different orientation of GPUs, one vs. two PSUs, different overall dimensions, this one is made specific to my hardware configuration and doesn't handle reference GPUs and other longer ones, no bottom plates used.

With respect to the request for pictures, I'm asking a couple of the hosts that handle a bunch to make posts so it's not all coming from me.

Away with family for Thanksgiving so I am not watching the forums as close as usual.. It's a combination of hardware, firmware, and software mods to make it all work... Took quite a bit of time to figure it all out and code up what was needed, that is part of the value proposition for the systems.

Fitting 8 GPU using commodity components in a 4U chassis, of course there are similarities but if you want to get down to it there is a long list of differences.. I am quite aware of Gray Matter,
and they are quite aware of me as well, no ill will on either side, but thanks for asking..

Updated with current specs, always pushing the limits like most of us... I've been manufacturing an 8 GPU rig for a few months now, as a follow-on to 4 and 6 GPU open frame rigs I've been making for a few years... Initially this unit used Radeon 380s and now Radeon 470/480s. Some may have seen it listed on ebay, I sell some there but it's primarily for the exposure, most units are sold direct to large farm operators who are running 50+ units at a time.

I do sell to individual miners as well and have been doing that for some time, posting this to share some details on the system and make it available via the forums.

The units run a fully custom Linux load, or a customized version of ethOS depending on the end users coin, they can mine most anything as with any GPU rig, given how many GPUs are in the system I sometimes need to customize the miner or it's launcher so it runs properly. Web based configuration provided, no need to SSH into the system to change wallet/pool, or other common settings. Most miners are shipped pre-configured at the request of the customer so they are plug and play.

Prices start at $3600 USD + shipping for single systems and go down under $3,000 as the quantity goes up. Payment via cashiers check, wire transfer, BTC, ETH, Credit Card via Paypal (verified billing/shipping address) all supported.

Systems are manufactured and shipped from the east coast of the US, worldwide shipping available. Turn around time before shipping averages 5 business days, however, a number of large orders have been recently placed so please reach out to confirm lead time.

ETH: 235Mh/s ~1160W, ~1260W when dual mining
ZEC: 2100H/s ~1160W
XMR: 6400H/s ~950W

These shots are from my 380 unit, 470 unit almost identical minus change in cards, use of EVGA G2 1300, and some strengthening of the chassis in my latest model revision to better handle shipping...

I added support for custom overclocks if a Titan is plugged in, Neptune and Jupiter pickup the padrino firmware overclocks as well.. The big win here is support for running the Titans with a Beaglebone, no RPi and no bridge board required.

Bumping it up, adjusting prices

All motherboards have that problem, find one that doesn't and I'll be seriously impressed.. To start the motherboard itself does not order them how they are physically laid down (e.g., all 16X slots take precedence, then it's a crap shoot on 1X slots based on dedicated or shared lanes), then you have the AMD driver on top of it.

I thought about an auction but figured this would be better, especially if a few people want to team up and grab it..

I had a rough time with your pool so I gave it up some time ago, but have no problem letting the miner mine for a dev fee, perhaps you can sync up with mrb and figure something out..

Good points all around, will see what happens..

The biggest value is the lack of a bridge board, just take a controller and Beaglebone and you are good to go, I am tossing in all of the controllers I have (I think 8 but need to run another count) plus a Titan cube I held onto so whoever picks it up has a stack to move out with.. I did enough looking at GenTarkin's code to know they can be integrated fairly easily, I missed my window between projects to get it all done so it's here for someone else that may want to press independently, or tag back up with GenTarkin to put them together.

Kicking out a link to my post in the goods forum, I sat on the firmware for a few months now thinking I would bundle it and sell it in partnership with GenTarkin, just don't have the time so I put it up for sale since it hasn't been distributed anywhere yet..

That is a stratum command.. Not sure what you are thinking keeping a management port of any kind open to the internet, it doesn't take more than a few hours for a scan to come across with someone looking for miner related ports..

The primary value of the offering is the firmware, selling the firmware, source, all of it, hence the price, not looking to sell it over and over to various buyers, whoever buys it could choose to do that.

That almost implies they are throttling due to temps, has anything changed with respect to the environment? Can you see what the clocks look like remotely after they start slowing down?

It's customized for the setup as a completely off the shelf one won't do the job
