I am looking to purchase up to 20 x Pandaminer B3 Motherboards.
These are the model ZRTK-21611 motherboards.

This looks amazing. What are the options going forward to be able to add FPGA boards one at a time? For example I am a small miner. So a chassis like this would be awesome to be able to add cards as I go. However I see in this first batch of FPGA boards are all gone. What is the feeling or suggestions for the small guys? Can you mix and match GPU's and FPGA boards? Any idea if we are going to see more FPGA boards?
Awesome project. Thanks for the feedback and suggestions. Thanks.
We are still working on the integration of the FGPA's into the OS, so its unknown whether 'mixing and matching' GPU's and FPGA's will be possible, hopefully it will be but I can't promise that yet. As for more Xilinx BCU1525 FPGA boards, that is really with Xilinx and the group buy organisers (GPUHoarder and senseless), so I can't answer that. The Xilinx VCU1525 FPGA's will continue to be available via regular distribution channels such as Avnet as they were previously of course. We plan to offer a system fully loaded with 64 x Acorn M.2 form factor FPGA's from Squirrels Research Labs (SQRL) in future (at least 3 months from now). |

Good project. It is really simple plug and play. I want to buy for my future rig soon.
which OS is installed in the system ?
EthOS comes pre-installed. |

Oh... and if anyone is looking to expand on this and include more testers I would recommend Vosk Coin.
Please, no. Guy is annoying af. Just my opinion! Well, I would but I need my review sample back as we only have 1-2 spare. |

having it with 1 or 2 bcu1525 and an acorn2 would be a good way to show what it can do.
or having it with an acorn2 and some of my 1080ti's would also by a good way to demo it
lastly is a mixed system possible say 1 or 2 BCU1525 FGPA's an acorn2 and a few 1080ti's
this last one would appeal to a lot of miners like myself with some gpus on hand and boosting the setup with an acorn2 and a fpga or 2.
For many your 16 fpga + acorn2 = too much $$$
but a combination of 1080ti + acorn2 + BCU1525 FGPA is possible and attractive
Yes, that is a very good idea. I'll have a think about how we could make that possible. The key issue at the moment is getting supply of the FGPA's, I have 2 x developer kits on the way but in general there is very limited supply in the marketplace. Similarly with Acorn, they are still pre-production at this stage and I have spoken with David at SQRL's and there is expected to be some supply available in 3-4 weeks time. Once I have at least 1 x FGPA and 1 x Acorn in hand I'll organise the eval. |

kjs is a legend and definitely legitimate, I have had the pleasure of speaking to him on the phone.
Great work Champ!
Thanks bittawm  Here is a new video of the system in action: https://youtu.be/u2qjajhw2jo |

Well, the Dyson Sphere needs to come first.

No hype riding here, just providing real products that work real well. |

KJS sent that to me for a one month test run and demo it was a very nice piece of gear.
He fully trusted me with the gear and when demo was done along with the thread I shipped it back to him on my dime. but kept a month of mining profits.
It is a bit too much to ask him for the 60k rig to do the same thing.
but I know that ethos software and KJS and ohgoditsagirl and gpuhoarder all have said they have had working relationships and they do not speak badly of each other.
I know KJS sent me a 6k machine to test run and trusted me and I was good to him and did what I was supposed to do.
So I feel this gear is real and I am mostly bitching that they missed deadlines and I do not know what to do with my coin/cash/gear ratios mostly due to this delay.
If I am 25k in cash 10k in coin and 20k in gear do I just wait and wait and wait. or do I sell more gear or do I want to change my mobos buy more ryzen 2700x and x470 boards.
At the moment I was hoping to just keep my 1080ti's and use acorn2 for a boost
I did not want to move into fpga's
Thanks philipma1957. I will be able to send you a BLACKBOX system for review, but without GPU's or FGPA's installed. The BCU1525 FGPA's have not shipped yet so its impossible to ship a fully loaded one even if we could. |

Thanks philipma1957  |

@ kjs if I can be of any help here let me know.
Let your friends know about them |

Holy.. that's hugeee   this game is getting stupid... why do you think that ? Good question, feel free to ask senseless and GPUhoarder in the Discord as they both know me and can vouch that we are legit. |

Wondering what you guys use as a firewall. I know the meraki mx64w has been recommended by people in the past but just looking for something secure, user friendly, remote access and fail-over capabilities. I'm not a network guy so thanks for understanding in advanced.  sparky Cheers Ubiquity USG. |

Does anyone know where to find the latest Windows drivers for the NVIDIA P102-100 GPU?
The latest version I have found so far is 384.x from the Manli website.
The NVIDIA 391.x drivers for GeForce 10 series do not detect the P102-100 GPU unfortunately.

Have you had the chance to test those cards with new ethereum miner from ohgodagirl?Regular 1080ti is making close to 50 mhs with it at low power consumption and i am interested to see if there will be some kind of boost on hash rate on mining version with new miner No. Which miner is that? |

Thanks for coming here and giving us info about it Whats the warranty on them and how is cooling compared to regular 1080tis?Also if you could run benchamark for raven that would be great The warranty on all of the NVIDIA mining series GPU's (P106, P104, P102) is 3-months. These have passive heatsinks, so you need fans in your chassis to blow over them. As for x16r, don't know (probably about the same as a 1080). |
