There was some weird speculation around D3, this one is the most hilarious  

If the marketing @ Bitmain is not on crack, they will  not call anything with a D anytime soon if they also want to sell it.
What should the + stand for ? A faster loss than the original D3 ?

Did BitMain create any FPGA-miner, yet ? I think they were pretty much ASIC since day 1.

Really wondering where that info should be coming from

eww that must smell ugly. I thought most PSUs have circuit-breakers that prevent such a literal meltdown.
How much will the whole repair-operation cost you ?

It would be cool if awesome miner would have the option to see a notification in the app if a newer version is available.
Just like e.g. Ios shows that there is a newer version if it contains some fixes.

Hashrate always follows price, not the other way around. Takes a bit to sink in, for me at first as well

Does anyone else have it that pools which are configured with privileged api access are gone after a while or after poolissues / miner-reboot ?
It randomly goes back to the config which is set in the webinterface of the miner.

Could you modify your payout-system to work like blockchain.info or other sites like bittrex ?
I was in a hurry to pay a transaction and thought it will go through, because i am used to how it works @ bittrex.
So the ammount i sent was not the full ammount, because the fee was ~ 5$ and i did not calculate it by hand.
So i had to pay another 5$ to send a second transaction of around 30 cents. For another 5$.
The total ammount needed for a transaction is not visible, it must be calculated by the user himself by adding the ammount to send and the fee.
Also please show a notification if the balance is not enough to send a transaction off.

Every poolswitch costs you some profit, because it is a short downtime and you do not calculate the complete round for the pool you used before switching.
Imho such a short timer can shoot you in the foot and decrease your income if minimal price-changes trigger constant pool-hopping. The default of 30 mins should be good.

Nice setup!
Which PSU are you using ?

I love the sound when these fans spin up at 100% when they boot. Gives me goosebumps.

Its an ASIC and not an FPGA. So no other stuff.

X11 has been nuked for now. I really wonder if that is what bitmain's plan was or if they overshot their goal.
They must have somehow known what they drop on that tiny market-cap of X11 with these sizeable batches.
Having these machines turn from Highly Profitable to Hated Heater in about 3 Months is quite quick.

But hey maybe some nutjob does a bitcoin-save-the D3-owners-X11-fork and everyone is saved  

Thanks for the hint.
Im a bit cautious with that PSU, Gigabyte is usually not a fan-manufacturer but rather a powersupply-manufaturer for PC-equipment.
So this device looks a bit "salvaged" and the way they cut the edges is looking self-made.
When i order in china, i might order one if they are really turning out safe.
Would be a shame to save money on the PSU which then toasts two miners for 5K.
But maybe im too careful ...

It was the time of Avalon vs Bitmain i think. Now Avalon is a nice memory of the past.

One PSU came DOA from Bitmain, im looking for an alternative.
RMA @BM will take 3 weeks or more i think.
Is there a legit shop for the L3+ - HP-breakout-board from gekkoscience ?
Parallelmining is in cali, that would take too long to ship compared to Bitmain.
Other option would be buying a normal psu and buy some more 6-pin connectors.
The 6-pin should fit into the 8-pin sockets, i think. Right ? 
To get the psu running i would have to bridge two contacts on the 24-pin i think.

All in all very workaroundy danger-soundy 

You can be glad you did not order a inno miner for 10k which does 30GH and is not even out.
Bitmain wanted to burn the competition and threw out so many D3. They achieved it.
They do the same they did with competition for Bitcoin-asics some time ago- flood the market with their miners for cheap price so ROI is impossible for the other buyers.
Now BM has even delisted the D3, they very well knew what they are doing and stopped selling them now. The bombs have fallen. But not all of them - yet.

Thanks. I have also noticed that the recommended xnsub-param causes the profit estimate to stop working.
So if i use for instance this url  stratum+tcp://scrypt.eu.nicehash.com:3333#xnsub  the #xnsub is causing the profit-esti to stop working.

Hey,

i saw that there was an outage on the granatgas-pool and there was no alarm being triggered.
In the dashboard i could see that the hashrate dropped to 0 when there was this outage.
One D3- miner was configured to use Granatgas only so it did not switch.
Another thing i saw is that one miner had a dead hashboard so it lost 33% of its hashrate.
Does decreased hashrate trigger an alert ?

push

from that calculation you are right, what i meant is that the psu itself draws some power. 
It converts from 220 V or 110V to the 5V.
Usually the PSU will draw ~ 20% of the input power to generate the desired output.
Since the 120 is from the wall, i thought the power at the port cannot be 12 Watt.
With 80% eff we have 9,6 Watt per port. Maybe i am missing something.

@jstefanop  Was 1.9 A enough when you tested it the last time ?

looks good, but im not sure if their values are all accurate. The thing has 12V@10 AMPS which is 120Watt-from the wall.
They claim that you can bring up to 12W per port -> you are then @ 120 Watt. This cannot be right, because the PSU would need 100% efficiency for that.

Im still looking for a highly-efficient model for the few i ordered.
