321  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [LTC] Changing the litecoin Proof of Work function to avoid ASIC mining? on: January 30, 2014, 09:52:18 PM
I do have to say, ASICs indeed shift the profit from those doing the actual mining to those making the mining gear.

It is a bummer.  There is a lot of fun in designing, deploying, and maintaining a large GPU farm.  I will be sad when ASICs obliterate that niche. 
322  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [LTC] Changing the litecoin Proof of Work function to avoid ASIC mining? on: January 28, 2014, 08:08:07 PM
I am concerned by these developments, in light of LTC's initial purpose. 

Is anyone in touch with the devs?  Is there a way to get ahold of them for discussion?

Perhaps they have been bought off with some early pre-orders?

Can anyone reputable actually vouch for this? 
324  Economy / Computer hardware / [WTS] 20x custom BFL fan plates on: January 19, 2014, 09:31:13 PM
Bought these, never installed them.  I have 20 pairs available.

They make a BFL single much quieter and much cooler than stock.  

Throw me an offer.....would prefer to sell them all together if possible.

I give you 0.8 BTC + shipping. Deal?

deal.

14mYfQdxF4MtNiztbmCQntuQtwHHGkCsFe

just PM me your shipping address after paying.

Shipping will be an extra .05 BTC. 
326  Economy / Computer hardware / Re: [WTS] - 6 reference 7970's.....all with issues on: January 19, 2014, 07:18:01 PM
I'd do .5BTC



Have to go a bit higher than that.....I truly believe these are quite salvageable for the person with the right skills. 

Can you go .80?

Hi, what means "not mine well"? Bad kh/s? How bad? How old are the cards? Might be interested in taking them.

Yes, like 300 KH/s when it should get 650+

That sort of thing. 

They are all between 6-15 months old

Here are pictures of the backs of 4 of them.  The other 2 are boxed up, and i really don't want to dig them out!

Any chance of some pictures of the backs of the boards?

Let me see what I can do.
330  Economy / Computer hardware / [WTS] - 6 reference 7970's.....all with issues on: January 19, 2014, 05:23:52 PM
Hey all,

I know some of you like to buy wonky hardware and attempt repairs.  I have not the skills to repair them, and have no other use for them. 

Thus, I offer them to the highest bidder.  The goods are:

2x Visiontek 7970
2x HIS 7970
1x Sapphire 7970
1X XFX 7970

They are all identical reference cards.....just different stickers from the brands. 

3 of them will pump out video, but not mine well......the other 3 seem to be hit and miss on booting up properly. 

Make an offer.....or I will sell the whole batch for 1 BTC right now.

To whom did you award the bounty??

Geekman.  He is actually in the same area as I am, and is assisting in person. 

He didn't even post.

he pm'd.  Offered his expertise in person.

Offer still on the table

Sorry, Not to offend, But literally the price you are offering isnt good, People are taking risks just to see when they have an ROI. :/

Pretty easy.  Don't buy it then.

334  Economy / Computer hardware / Re: [WTS] - Cointerra 2 TH/s January order on: January 16, 2014, 02:46:37 PM
yea 25% is a horrible number. We have been anywhere from 40-25% so you just chose the bare minimum.

Clearly you have a limited grasp on the maths.

I don't see any reason why you couldn't.  Verify that they're 220, it's possible they're 120.  Are they labeled under the receptacle?

I am 98% certain it is 220v.  I will find out for sure tomorrow when my electrician takes a look.

You are pretty well set up.  You are going to want to purchase some server rack pdus.  You then have 3 options, Replace the end on the pdu cord, replace the receptacle in the wall with a l6-30 or make an adapter cord.  You may have 240v or 208v depending on your building service entrance. You can tell by counting the wires that come to your building above your meter.  If you have 2 insulated wires and one bare, You have 240v.  If you have 3 insulated wires and one bare it could be one or the other, you will need to use a voltmeter to be sure.

at 208v you are limited to 4992 watts (208v x 30amp x .8(derating for constant load))
at 240v you are limited to 5760 watts (240v x 30amp x .8(derating for constant load))

Here is the pdu

Here is the receptacle

http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-L6-30R-L630R-30A-250V-2-Pole-3-Wire-TwistLock-Female-Receptacle-IPS247-/231115859037?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item35cf94245d

Here is the cord end

http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEMA-L14-30-30-Amp-125-250V-3-Pole-4-Wire-Grounding-Plug-with-External-Cord-Grip-/111020708686?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item19d959934e


If it were me I would replace the receptacle.  If you dont feel comfortable doing that I can assist you in 2 ways.

I can purchase the pdu and the cord end, replace the cord end and ship it to you or I could make you some custom adapter cords and ship them to you.

I can make adapter cords for $45 each including materials +shipping.




Any specific reason why I could not use a PDU already utilizing an L14-30 cord end?

Lets hop back on topic.....

OP, Can you tell us what the square footage of this datacenter is planned to be and also let us know what kind of budget you are looking to work with....

Woodser


1500 SF.......I would like to keep cooling to $5,000 or less.  I am looking for out of the box ideas here.  This will not be your typical data center!

Hello all.

I have recently acquired some new space, and it comes with a whole lot of these (wired and mounted, of course):



There are actually 6 of them.....and I would like to use them to power my next build-out.  

I am seeking out the best advice on the most cost effective way to utilize these outlets to power many mining rigs.  

Points given for clarity, nice calculations in terms of capacity, and links to products that I may need to get my rigs plugged in a going.  

Thanks in advance!
