Here ya go, pics of build using Thermaltake Core X9 case, (4) GTX 1080 Ti hybrids, standard motherboard with risers. ...SNIP......... Thx. Lots of room for an ONDA Board.I ordered one from Sidonia at Letine last night. This email gave me the final push to go ahead and order one: Dear Aaron,
Because of CNY long holiday coming soon in February (nearly one month),
the last mass production of this year for the top sale quality 12*PCIE B250 Mining Motherboard will be ready on 22th,January,2018.
If you have any order plan on this 12*pcie miner motherboard for January & February,
pls kindly inform us asap to avoid any delay on delivery,
Meanwhile, our new version 8*PCIE inbuild Newest 7th Intel 3865 CPU developped out already, trial mass production will be ready in the middle of March,
With big advantage on price, if you need sample, welcome to pre-order, because this trial production quantity will be not big.

The cases from China will me cost way too much because of shipping to Canada ($180+ per case). So, I got one of these cases for less than $ 200 CDN. It's depth is just a bit too short for the Onda 8 GPU Mobo. ( I still have my dead Onda MoBo.) Anyway, I will use it with my 7 GPU MSI 170A Pro Carbon MoBo rig. There's lots of room to add fans to cool everything. I ordered the Thermaltake Core X9 ( $230 CDN) and will try it out for size with the Onda 8 GPU MoBo. If it fits, I will buy another Onda 8 slot board. If not, I can still use it for my 12 GPU Biostar MoBo and likely put 10+ GPUs in this case.

Guys, would like your opinion on the following please.
I'm going to help two work colleagues set up their first respective mining rigs next week (both identical 6x1080). I'm struggling on what to set them up to mine, basically. As they have very little knowledge of the whole mining experience, the logical thing would be to get them an account on Nicehash and forget about it.
Unfortunately I don't like that option for 3 reasons: - NH is taking massive fees - They'd have to setup an account because mining to external addresses would just take ages for them to see their gains - NH is not my friend anymore, generally, for well-known reasons
I could set them up with DSTM and mine ZEC, but they'd potentially be forfeiting 30-40% of potential earnings.
What do you reckon? Zpool equihash hub? Ahashpool Neoscrypt hub?
If it were me, I'd set them up on Mining pool hub (MPH) to mine equihash. Why? 1. MPH has low fees. 2. You can set auto exchange to any coin you want for your pay out. You can change this to a different coin anytime. 4. The auto exchange is convenient and costs very little. 3. You can check the dashboard, individual workers and especially graphs for the coins it's been mining to see how your rigs perform over time. I'd use DSTM on SMOS and a setting like this: --server us-east.equihash-hub.miningpoolhub.com --user username.workername --pass x --port 17023 or alternatively, they can check whattomine and manually switch from one equihash coin to another by simply changing the last two digits of this : --server us-east.equihash-hub.miningpoolhub.com --user username.workername --pass x --port 20575 The second option is what I do because I find auto switching on any pool and any algo causes too much hash rate loss. I tested autoswithcing on multiple pools. Most of the time, I'm mining on 20575 which is ZCL as it's the most profitable lately.

One of my friends is getting his hands on a 19-slot mobo... Funny thing is he has no idea how to set up the damn thing. What's the latest on Windows' support for more than 8 GPUs of the same brand? Would I have to set him up a Linux distro if he wanted to run 19 GPUs on that mobo? Or is 16 doable under Win10? I wasn't recommending that mobo to him due to the major point of failure risk... but hey ho he went for it. Now I can see myself setting it up for him... That board needs 6 x P106 Mining card, as pre-req to work. See full rig setup by BBT here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=miUoqnUqk9MHe did it with Win10 - 19 x GPUs Does it NEED those P106's though? Can it run 16 cards (8 nvidia and 8 AMD)? If I remember correctly BBT started with p106's and started adding normal GPU's to max it out instead of the other way around. I would check the latest BIOS/chipset drivers for updates on compatibilty, but 8 normal Nvidia and 8 amd should work fine, or start with 13 AMD and add Nvidia one at a time. The worst part of that board is the crazy loading times and then trying to load OC values after that. Seems more feasible to stick with 8-13 GPU motherboards. I agree, and that's what I told him. Easier to manage 2-3 smaller mobos than this juggernaught which will probably end up being a massive pain in the ass. Everyone's jumping onto the mining bandwagon nowadays. Got colleagues at work flocking to me as they hear I'm into crypto. Helped one of them ordering parts. My plumber/electrician has setup a rig and I was walking him through how to get his mined coins out of Suprnova into his Coinomi wallet! I have 7 of these 12/13 GPU rigs in the farm and .... yes it is fun building these rigs but you need plenty of power for them and well ventilated. All of them are with the Deltas 2400w and housed in the center of the farm so that I can use the air extractor on them during the hot days. These rigs are the hottest in terms of temps and hash power. Ironically these rigs are the only ones that are hanging like bats and since they are stable, they will likely remain with risers. Multiple 8 x GPU riserless rigs are ideal for density and can fully populate open cage metal racks and make use the of floor fans effectively. I dont forsee doing anymore AMD rigs (exception of the Vega rigs) because the NVIDIAs are a blessing - always works, easy to control voltage and very stable in most cases. So lessons learnt - the bigger the rigs, the bigger the issues in PSU requirements, cooling strategy, cabling, stabilizing them.... a golden rule : stability, cool temps and consistent submission of shares to the pool's stratum server are more important than achieving the meanest powerful, fastest rigs that requires constant babysitting. If you have a large farm -- undervolting is very very key - forget the world GPU speed record. Excellent summary. My biggest rigs have 7 and 8 GPUs. They are stable now - but were more hassle than my 6 GPU rigs. The 8 GPU rig is on a Biostar MoBo and can be increased to 12 GPUs fairly easily. However, I just don't feel comfortable with more risers. I really like the idea of the riserless 8 GPU Mobos. I had no luck on my first attempt with the ONDA board... but will get the courage to try again. I think in the future, I may have to send GPU rigs to a host site with cheaper electricity than I pay...ie: in order to be able to make a profit. That means I will need a riser less rig in a decent case with good stability, cooling etc. From what I've read, I'm still not comfortable with the idea of buying from Pandaminer and their competitors and then sending them to a host site in Labrador. Perhaps someone (AT Miner?) will come up with a good rig in an enclosed case yet? In the meantime, I'll enjoy trying to develop my own. EDIT: I meant Autominer -not AT Miner. Looking forward to Phil's review!

Good morning Ladies and Gentlemen,
I would like to pick your brains regarding one of my rigs that freezes solid after a few days. I have changed the add2psu, swapped around risers, changed PSU's but with 2x Zotac 1080ti mini and 4x 1070ti it dies on a regular basis. Specs: Windows 10, latest updates Latest nvidia drivers Asus Z270-P with latest bios 4GB ram intel G3930 m.2 SSD 128GB 1 EVGA 750W and 1 EVGA G1 1000W
When it freezes the fans are still running at whatever speed they were running prior to freezing. Event logger doesn't help but these are the only errors and stuff I can see there: -License Activation (slui.exe) failed with the following error code:hr=0x80070422 (I assume it's because this copy is not registered)
-The description for Event ID 0 from source igfxCUIService2.0.0.0 cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer. If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event. The following information was included with the event: Received Post Shell Event 1
The other thing I noticed is that the mouse cursor is lagging in teamviewer on that machine.
I am completely out of ideas. The only thing I can think of now sending the ram, mobo and cpu back to amazon and getting new ones. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
The igfxCUIService2.0.0.0 warning is related to the Intel HD graphics on the CPU. Try disabling it in the BIOS. It will probably be called 'integrated graphics' or 'iGPU'. Also Teamviewer can cause issues, try using VNC. Thanks, I will try to disable it and run it without that. (the monitor is actually plugged into that in case I wanna sit in front of it) I do use teamviewer on all my rigs, so far no issues with it but I am happy to try anything on this rig as it drives me complete nuts. If you have any other ideas please do not hold back! Ps.: That raises another questions, if the igpu is screwed doesn't that mean that the processor is faulty? not or maybe the cpu is bad. but windows and 6 cards with only a celeron and 4gb things happen. look for how much cpu usage. See if you are over 45% do you use afterburner? it will show you cpu useage you should try that rig with smos . I have found smos can use a shit cpu and 4gb ram without much issue. I have found windows need more cpu and more ram. this happens on the bigger rigs. I still use windows on a few rigs but much more rigs on smos. What you said coupled with the iGPU problem I think I will return the G3930 and order something beefier. I just have to figure out which one would be good enough price/power consumption-wise. I will give SMOS a shot see if it works with that. Do you think this Intel PentiumŪ Processor G4560T would be enough or I gotta go higher to an i3? That Celeron 3930 is working for me on a BIOSTAR TB250 MoBo with 9 GPUs on Windows 10. I did the tweaks mentioned here: http://1stminingrig.com/best-windows-setup-configuration-tweaks-for-mining/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+1stMiningRig+%281st+Mining+Rig%29Having said that, the G4560T should be fine and won't "cost an arm and a leg".

URGENT:
I need to send a few spare fans for Avalon 741s (should be the same as what S9s uses too).
Is there a part number or local suppliers around the Labrador area / Amazon / NewEgg etc.
I can get these parts from Canaan but that will take time.
Any help or ideas welcomed.
I have 2 old S7s sitting in spare parts at Cryptoboreas. Their fans should be compatible. I'll email the guys there and tell em they can use the fans from these miners to fix yours. These are for my group's A741s at GND. The older A721s are at Cryptoboreas. Any part-number description for these fans? Sorry for delay. I have been laid up for a few days with spinal probs. I have 2 A741s running in my garage. I will take a look tomorrow and get you part number. Coolermaster A12038-60BB-4RP-F1 EDIT: Found this info : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1673843.msg20776541#msg20776541So maybe the S7 fans will work for you until you get new fans from Avalon. I mentioned this to the guys at Cryptoboreas.

Cryptoboreas already replied: "The S7 fans are underpowered for the Avalons. The old S7 fans are also extremely worn out. " Your best bet is to search shopbot.ca or Go directly to newegg.ca or amazon.ca

Is there a special trick to get the ONDA B250 BTC-D8P MoBo Ver.1 to work?
( Note: I'm getting the same symptoms Storx described on the 6 slot ONDA. I tried clicking the the button he used to resolve the issue. No luck)
Do I need to install a VGA driver or something else?
Is there an online manual ?( I couldn't find one of the ONDA website.)
Been struggling for 2 days with the ONDA B250 BTC-D8P MoBo Ver.1 MoBo.... SNIP..... EDIT: i have looked for documentation; cant find any Thx. I have a couple G4400 CPUs on other MoBos. I'll move one to the ONDA and start over. Fingers crossed. Well changing to the G4400 didn't make a difference. Just like before, The fans on the GPUs and the CPU start spinning and nothing else happens. Not even a light on the Ethernet port. So, I'm giving up and sending it back. Am looking at alternative boards ...but likely have to go with risers. I had the same behavior with a Delta PSU in combination with a Biostar TB250 BTC pro Mobo... the fans start spinning but no boot. I managed to start it by slowly removing the 4 pin CPU connector from the Mobo and put it back, all this during the rig being connected to power... You're more courageous than I am.

Been struggling for 2 days with the ONDA B250 BTC-D8P MoBo Ver.1 MoBo. Ran all over Toronto to replace RAM and CPU. Sill not working. Here's my set up:
MOBO : see above PSU: CORSAIR HXi Series HX1200i 1200W 80 PLUS PLATINUM CPU: Intel Core I3-7100 Kaby Lake Dual-Core Processor Socket LGA 1151, 3.9GHz RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB 260-Pin DDR4 SO-DIMM DDR4 2133 (PC4 17000) Laptop Memory Model F4-2133C15S-4GRS GPU's 1 x EVGA 1060 SC, and 7 x EVGA 1060 SCC
I plugged it in the way Phil mentioned so that i didn't short it. I even tried what worked for Storx ( pushing the CMOS button) when he had trouble getting his D1800 to post.
not sure if this will help.. have the onda B250 D8P ver 1. G4400, 8 gig ddr4 sodimm (g.skill ripjaw ddr4 2400), 128 gig msata. dual psus, mixed amd and nvidia, 6 cards total. for initail setup: i booted with a single rx460 and got into the bios. in there i set the iGPU (to use the G4400 Pentium) as the primary video to use the hdmi port, then disconnected the 460 video (left the card in though) and rebooted. from there i installed win10. the iGPU came up as "microsoft basic vga" or something to that effect in device manager. then i let it search for drivers and it grabbed the intel driver from ms. from there is was a cakewalk, more or less. the board does some sort of self discovery mode on initial boot and any boot after a cmos reset. in a bios reset i think it expects a card in the 1st slot (closest to cpu) and doesnt use teh iGPU (if any), its kinda of a weird board until you get it setup, then its fine. its actually rock solid for me. i like it, cards have good spacing and cooling is good with 3 noctua 140s each pushing 133 cfm at them. EDIT: i have looked for documentation; cant find any Thx. I have a couple G4400 CPUs on other MoBos. I'll move one to the ONDA and start over. Fingers crossed. Well changing to the G4400 didn't make a difference. Just like before, The fans on the GPUs and the CPU start spinning and nothing else happens. Not even a light on the Ethernet port. So, I'm giving up and sending it back. Am looking at alternative boards ...but likely have to go with risers. Hey buddy, check your memory, these onda motherboards are very specific on memory requirements.. is your memory 1.35V? When i first got my D1800 BTC board i bought DDR3 memory listed under 1.35 search, but when i double checked the memory itself it had printing of 1.5v listed on the product, so i had to ship it back and order new memory. Also i found that the memory was very tricky on getting the proper angle to get it to fully seat for me. I think the clear bios worked for me because i was trying to boot it on 1.5V memory and it was unhappy with it throwing errors, then when i placed the correct memory in the computer it wouldnt boot tell i cleared the errors from the 1.5v memory. I used those ripjaw ddr 4 rams thos worked for me Thx Marvel. Gonna try this one: G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 8GB DDR4 2400MHz CL16 1.2V SODIMMs (F4-2400C16S-8GRS). A store nearby has it in stock. I really find it weird how poorly the RAM fits into the slot. hope it works for you and yes make sure the ram is properly slotted in , Iusually first pull back those clicky tab things then slide it in and make sure it clicks. I bet the ram was ur issue its common for a cpu fan to spin and no post usually its ram Thx for the vote of confidence. The increased RAM speed and capacity didn't solve the issue. I'm so discouraged....and looking for an alternate solution. I was even considering going back to using risers on a known board. Then, I found the Onda B250 BTC-D8P is available in the US : https://www.waikey.com/item/onda-b250-btc-d8p-8-pci-e-slots-motherboard-8-gpu-mining/Not sure if I should trust this site.

A big thanks Storx. I started out with DDR3L 1600/1333MHz 1.35 volt as that's what Onda states on its website: http://www.onda.cn/MotherBoard_Specifications.aspx?id=373I then went to DDR4 SO-DIMM DDR4 2133 1.2 volts. It's the same one vapourminer used - but only 4 GB instead of 8. I can barely read the etching on the RAM slot but it looks like: DDR4 ST12V P (or D) R (or 4) 1710. Cheers

PSU: CORSAIR HXi Series HX1200i 1200W 80 PLUS PLATINUM
CPU: Intel Core I3-7100 Kaby Lake Dual-Core Processor Socket LGA 1151, 3.9GHz
RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB 260-Pin DDR4 SO-DIMM DDR4 2133 (PC4 17000) Laptop Memory Model F4-2133C15S-4GRS
GPU's 1 x EVGA 1060 SC, and 7 x EVGA 1060 SCC
I plugged it in the way Phil mentioned so that i didn't short it. I even tried what worked for Storx ( pushing the CMOS button) when he had trouble getting his D1800 to post.
