So I clicked on the 10% coupon choice, but now when I click on my coupons there's nothing in there. Where's the 10% coupon?
It is under 'My Applications' My miners == not shipped  For those who have shipped, any chance on getting the 'create time' of your order? Out of curiosity...  Mines are not shipped in their system (Bitmaintech), but it is when i look into UPS.com. Mine is 2014-06-30 14:45:34.0 |

I have a second minute batch 1 order and I haven“t received tracking yet, so I doubt they have shipped in quantity yet.
However, it does take some time to update all the tracking info, so I might be wrong.
Go to ups.com. Go to "TRACK BY REFERENCE". Put your order number in the reference field. Put in your zip/postal code and country. If your package has shipped, you'll see something like this: Shenzhen, China 07/15/2014 10:52 P.M. Departure Scan
07/15/2014 9:45 P.M. Origin Scan
07/15/2014 8:32 P.M. Pickup Scan
China 07/15/2014 10:19 A.M. Order Processed: Ready for UPS Mine are en route and scheduled for Thursday delivery. WP. On the way, arriving friday Same here, shipped ! Arriving Thursday, 07/17/2014, By End of Day EDIT: I just logged into my UPS account (if you have one). Since i gave them my account number, the tracking is link to my account. ;-) |

What kind of scam are you pimping? Minerscube 5? Never heard of it and certainly if it was legit, there'd be a lot of talk in the Hardware forum.
they must be a con, but they take paypal. so they do look interesting
I am also concerned that they are too good to be true, but Paypal certainly helps here. I guess we should watch this space. Not sure if I would throw that much money at a product/company with no real track record. If someone like Bitmain had a 5TH/825W box, I'd be all over it I would be very carefull too... Reed carefully the Paypal conditions, because I don't think they offer more that 60 days coverage on non receive product... Yeah, it's 45 days to get the complaint in: https://www.paypal.com/webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full?country.x=US&locale.x=en_US#13But... I won't be paying in advance of the shipping date, and will be asking questions about delivery times pre-paying. Assuming the cash comes in of course. I'll be wanting that papertrail nice and big so that I can prove I worked in a decent & fair way to Paypal. Looks too good to be true ... smells scam big time.  |

The s1 eats £50 of leccy a month, & only produces about £85 of Bitcoin a month.
These big blocks could kill s1 miners, as they reduce that £85.
It's something you'll need to allow for in how work is allocated across the Bitminter pool. Those of us with units with better GH to w ratios will last longer, but the s1's will feel it more and more.
Downclock them so you got a better ratio per GH ? Like 1 Kw per GH ? Search for pencil mod, you can run an S1 at 140 GH for 180 Watt if i can remember correctly. Yup, gonna run some trials now to see if I can improve performance. I'll post results. I only have the one s1, but if we can save our miners it's worth it. Ok, the lowest I could get it running at was 130 GH. That ate about 310w. The ratio always seems to be 0.42 GH/w. Where as the newer miners roll in at closer to 1 GH/w. So you can dial them back, but your profit will stay crap. Not the best of news. check this thread => https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=526060.0"With this voltage my 3 antminer s1 are hashing at 140 GH/s each for 500 watts (166 watts per ant)" |

Much as I appreciate averages balance stuff out I'm worried about these big blocks & the lack of return on them.
There are many pools. If we are too greedy for blocks we may well have nothing but crap work dumped on us ( big blocks, low pay ). And at that point our average will suffer.
If that happens your only choice will be to go to a new pool. & Bitminter will die.
No-one can afford to run at a loss after all. So I'd be careful about these big blocks. If someone is trying to pay feck-all for a ton of work you really do need to avoid them.
But(i dont know how it works), but i have been in just another pool apart from this one, and we never had there blocks of 24h or so. I mean... its normal that maybe in 1 day we find 2,3,4 blocks, and then suddenly when everything looks to be going nice, a block of 2 days appear?. Its like if the system had something like: If blocks/day > 3 or 4 then nextblock = 24hours At the current difficulty, someone posted in the previous page, that our average block discovery for a week should be 10.4. I think we already hit the average this week. It is just normal to hit high difficulty block once in a while as low difficulty one (we found one at 2.x% then 98.9%). On the long term, we should be close to the average. |

This is a world record? almost 99%? It's not a new record (yet, they had 99.9%) of difficulty but it will the most effort we put in a block for sure. |
|
|
|

i'm wondering how much work is the last % of the CDF. What is the exact calculation formula to know how much effort you need to get to a X% CDF ? we did like 2.x% in the last 12 hours.

Just a thought for the "pros" at what "bit" does anyone do an auto payout? Ie 1.00000000 or 0.10000000? Or what is considered the " norm" or safe? Asking cause I'm greener than grass! Thanks in advanced!
Consider your wallet the most secure place to keep your BTC. So don't stack them too much on bitminter. The amount is pretty much related to the amount you're mining every day. Just move them once a week or every two weeks ?  You can do it manually or through the auto-payout. It's a personal choice ;-) |

How about it Bitmain, can I get an autographed S3 ?
~L)L~
Hahahahah Epic ! Sign mines too ! |

BTW, the EVGA 1300 SuperNova G2 has only 6 PCI-E. If you want to overclock two S3, you need 8 PCI-E. I guess you can buy some adapters to fit the two missing.
I went for a Corsair RM-1000.
No, EVGA1300 G2 has 8 connectors: 4x1 (single) and 2x2(double)=8 I have it, so I checked. Strange it clearly said 6 on the box. Damm, if a knew i would have bought that one. not to beat up this topic too much, but on the box it says: 6X6+2 pin PCI-E and on the next line 2X6pin PCI-EIt's OK since you bought a good supply as well...  Overall, I always consult here for power supplies: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=486121Well i suck, i even asked the "tech guy" and he told me that if i needed 8 PCI-E, i should go with the RM 1000, since the G2 "had only 6". I guess he tough I needed 8 single PCI-E. Anyway whatever. Worst case, i will run the RM 1000 at 90%+. Thanks guys for the rectification  EDIT: I am no power supply professional but this is what tricked me (2 + 4) http://www.techbuy.com.au/images/E2014011661297.jpgThe 1300W G2 has six PCIe cables, and eight PCIe plugs. Two of the cables have two ends on them, so just keep in mind that if you use both plugs on the one cable all the current for the two plugs is going through that one cable, and more importantly all the current for two plugs is going through the connector on PSU. You shouldn't pull more than ~200W per plug if you're going to use both. Yeah got it ;-) thanks |

Have they arrived? DO they work as advertised? What PSU did you use?
They said they would ship them starting July 10. I will use a Corsair RM 1000. Exactly what i use for my two S1. I should be overclocking them to 504 gh/s. (more if possible. depends on temperature and HW %). I wanted to buy an EVGA SuperNova G2 1300W but there is only 6 PCI-E, you need 8 for two S3 if you want to overclock them. Otherwise, 4 is enough. Have you found any overclocking info for the new S3's? it is 8 2 wires are double 4 are single use 2 single wires and a double wire for each s-3. I could go into a long explanation but it should work. Since you will pull under 900 watts for the 2 s-3's i have run 1215 watts on these evgas's running 3 s-1's no issues. btw if you go to newegg it is on sale this thread shows various sales on the evga 1300 https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=591721.msg7639510#msg7639510Yeah you're right, we had the same discussion in the S3 thread. My bad I bought the RM 1000. I may be short for overclocking if it can be overclocked a lot but i doubt it. It should be fine for a normal overclocking. |

Gentlemen and Ladies, I am new so forgive this being a stupid question... I have a dragon that shows as 1020 ish ghps on btcguild, but when I point it at bitminter it shows as 724 ish. Consistently! Am I doing something wrong? I'm using http://mint.bitminter.com:3333 ( I tried using the 8332 port but it simply wouldn't connect) with the standard difficulty. I should say that I have quite a few antminer S1's also pointed at bitminter and their hash rates as depicted on bitminter are much closer to the rates show in on each individual machine. help? I have the same problem with an S2. BTCGuild reports 1000 +/- a few percent consistently. I tried a few times to run it here but it hashes under 800 consistently. I doubt it is the gear since the issue exists nowhere but here. I though the Dragon had an LCD in front of the machine displaying each hashing board performance. You don't have access ? |

I would highly doubt bitminter is the problem. Looks like more that one of you hashing board is having a problem. |
