I gave a-ads a try based off mostly good things said about them and the OP.
I started a campaign, deposited btc , said balance was .03btc then couple hours later it was .0btc saying my campaign had been banned due to insufficient funds. The stats chart shows that .03btc was spent. The impressions & clicks count is still 0 ... did I get absolutely nothing for my btc?! Is this site a fucking SCAM? If so, OP should be updated =(
I really doubt that is the case, sometimes the statistics can take a little while to update (I don't believe they are real time).
If you wait a day and you are still having problems, you can post on the support topic and arsenische will probably help you out

Its resolved, everything is fine for now =) ... turns out, I guess my site wasnt availaable when they went to review the ad ... weird cuz Ive never seen the site be down ... but whatever. They sent me a refund for my deposit because of this. Support reverified my ad URL and reactivated the ad =)

Anyone have any feedback as per the quality of advertising w/ these providers? Im looking to *pay* for advertising w/ one of these sites. So not really interested in trying to make money by clicking on their ads =P I want my site advertised in their ads.

Why dont new versions in windows support trezor?!?! =(
That seems backwards.....

The latest version does support Trezor. There was a problem initially but it was sorted out so all the latest versions now support Trezor. You can get the latest builds from here: https://download.electrum.org/

Check the 2.5.4 folder for the latest releases

Hellz yeah! Just tested =) works. ... thanks!

looks good so far, any chance we can get a overclock option?
Yep, it already exists ... 325mhz
Anything more requires reverse engineering spimux-titan file in the pi image. Its not open source, it holds the keys to making the controller board running better and unlocking more frequencies etc.... till then, anything beyond 325mhz is not possible.

Colour change is pointless IMO, readability is what matters most and stock is perfect. No need to rice it out.

Updating bfgminer also seems like a waste of resources. Should only be updated if there's a specific fix for Titans in a release, such as decreasing slush time or whatever. If it ain't broken, don't fix it.

KNCMinion I haven't really used in the past, don't think I'll use it much in the future either. I vote remove if it makes your lives easier with releases.

My viewpoint exactly on bfgminer updates but ... for the sake of "keeping it updated so people think they are running the 'latest and greatest'" ... Ive always at least coded in the stock 5.1.0 (works best w/ titans) and whatever latest build there is for bfgminer. =) ... so far, Ima leaning towards keeping it like that. Juggling more versions then that around ... is chaotic and nothing I intend to do.
KNCminion is a free thing(I dont have to change stuff w/ it when I make other webgui changes) , doesnt require any additional work for me to keep it in the webgui. So, Im probably not gonna worry about taking it out.

Some interesting behaviour Ive observed over the course of countless testing of this "Energy Saver" ... is...
There are some dies which run great at 325mhz @ lower voltage then they will at 300mhz!!! For example I have 1 die that loves 325mhz @ -0.0732 @ 325mhz, but it hates anything lower than -0.0586 @ 300mhz LOL!!!!


I feel for you on your 'fixes and painful exorcisms'.....  of these obvious evil KNC Titan machines......(evil they are i tell you) Smiley Evil!

Must be tough....your 'Voodoo" for dummies book".....all 'ragged" and 'torn' with coffee stains and sweat....the constant 'demon appeasement' etc.

The price of 'Chicken Entrails' keeps going up...what's a guy to do working on these 'obvious evil KNC Titan units' going to do if there is a world wide 'chicken entrails' shortage? Sad

You walk a 'hard path' my man.

 But we appreciate your efforts Smiley

(Hey..at least you may get enough hours for that "Voodoo Priest" Certificate by mail order out of all this...there is that... a 2nd career path!) Smiley



LOL! =)

I own a copy of your firmware and look forward to the self-leveling function - and as it isn't available yet, I think the primer is still relevant, no? Also, you are selling it for $50 on eBay, so having a method of performing a tune-up, gratis, is a good thing.

What I'd love to see from you if you're willing to contribute back to the community, is a photo walk-through of the heat-sink removal so people can do their own maintenance on the thermal paste on those. I've gone as far as cracking the cube and removing the screws from the heatsink, but haven't had the balls to pull it off, as I didn't want to do any damage if there was a step I was missing. That'd be very helpful for those of us with dies that run much hotter than others, meaning they likely aren't making good contact with the heatsink.

Also, among others, I'm sure, we've been asking for fixes and enhancements to your firmware since you first released it - posting a URL where we can vote on the enhancements we'd most like to see would be helpful.

FWIW, I have cubes, as do many others, that will show activity (they sit idle) and they won't hash, regardless of whether your firmware is trying to awaken them or not. Is there another method we can try to revive those? I have a full cube doing exactly this and reviving any of the dies on that cube would be a huge benefit.

Thanks for your contributions!

I dont actually have a titan physically, been coding everything remotely =)

I would like to see logs of the cubes that still sit around idle even tho the firmware has powered them off and on again.

For everyone that replied.

I tried different brands of light bulbs. The cheap dollar store ones and Phillips/GE they all last the same amount.

I am pulling around only 1000Watts or so.

LED is very expensive and if mining kills those LEDs then its going to get very expensive.

Besides buying expensive surge protectors, is there any software method to fix this?



It makes me wonder of quality of wiring or breaker.  I have pulled 1K + on multiple circuits in my house never once killed a bulb.  I now have most in my mining area, which is a nice option to have (I realize most don't have this option).

I'm suggesting trying 1 led bulb to see what it does.  I think it's possible it will act different as so low energy to power.  But I would not switch all to this unless you are sure it wont kill it, as your right it would make it more expensive.

Haha, yeah ... I know a circuit in my place is not wired right from a certain outlet forward or something. Basically the delta between ground and hot is 60v or w/e its not the perfect 120 -120 0 (or whatever they should be) it should be when measuring all 3 holes in relation to each other.

I just mentioned a software method.... lower the clocks / volts of the miners! Dont draw as much power.
354  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Help! Mining is killing my lightbulbs on: November 24, 2015, 01:11:12 AM
Yeah, I remember when I had my 15A / 120v circuits at near full load, the lights(on same circuit) would brighten briefly during block changes. LOL! Ultimately I had to spread them out on different circuits ... so I didnt get "new block found on network" reminders. HAHA!

Its kinda like turning a hairdryer on and off ... those things easily put a circuit near max and the surge of current they pull when u start them is what causes dimming.
355  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Help! Mining is killing my lightbulbs on: November 24, 2015, 12:56:46 AM
The other solution is underclocking/undervolting your miners so they dont put such a large power draw on that circuit.

357  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: My Avalon 6's are in undervolt + down clock results. on: November 23, 2015, 09:22:26 PM
Fedex was 1 day early.

I have some down clock numbers

freq 400

volts 10.6

watts 596

gh 2209

watts per gh .269

will try 9.5 volts next

That is a little disappointing at 0.27J/GH and actually worse that the numbers you quoted at 400MHz & 11.2V in notlist3d thread, which was 0.265J/GH


freq 400
volts 11.2
watts 741
 2800gh


In practice I do not think the 9.5V frequency will have been 400MHZ as I think it will have downclocked to about 315MHz. notlist 3d said you can see the actual frequency in the Cgminer API Log? It may be that "smartspeed" is messing things up, perhaps by seeking zero HW errors? Or it my have just done the best job it could, although I feel that it would be unusual to not see a better improvement with that reduction in voltage? We need more information on how smartspeed works and what it does?


Rich

smart speed seeks to run no hardware errors if it was the same as avalon 4.1   so it will reduce gh too much.

at least that is what would happen to 4.1's

Thats some retarded ass logic on the firmwares part! Nearly any chip will spit out errors over time no matter what voltage its at. They should look for keeping errors under a certain running % ... not 0 LOL!
No wonder the units got clocked down too far!
I think thats how fucking SP20's work too...

Move miners to a different breaker(circuit).....
359  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Avalon 6? Any owners out there? on: November 23, 2015, 08:21:59 PM
Also, I cant remember avalon6 thread I read this in, someone was requesting if someone would be able to turn off "smartspeed" and ssh login would probably be required. I offer up my services if whoever asked for that sees this post =)
I dont have an avalon6 but if ur willing to let me login remotely over ssh to one, I could figure out how things work =)

If your wanting to play with the firmware all you need is likely a RPI B or B+ .  You can flash it with the image from BlockC I put in my review - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1257327.0 .

But that should be all you need to ply round with firmware.  Will not be as fun with no miner on other side but should still allow you to modify it.

Yeah but w/o a miner, there is no testing or confirming.... its kinda pointless ...
