801  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: PSU for Avalon 741 - 1x EVGA 1300W or 2x EVGA 650W - both Gold 90% ? on: January 05, 2018, 04:25:23 PM
ATX power supplies are not meant so supply their max power 24/7/365. Go with a server psu wat was built to do just that.

Reading so hard.

You might try posting in the right section.

This is for bitcoin, not altcoins.
803  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Mining bandwitch issue with S9 and L3 etc. need an advise on: January 05, 2018, 04:21:20 PM
You have WAY more bandwidth than you need.

An s9 with 1 bad hashing board will hash around 9t. I would assume the L3 has the same problem. I promise you its nothing to do with your internet speed. You can run thousands of miners on your connection, ive done it with less bandwidth.

Mr Sandal_@$$_Hat, I'm sorry, but you're assumptions are just simply wrong. You are making up conspiracy theories to comfort yourself and to make yourself look good to all your fellow forum bunny friends.


If Halong is a real company they need to fire you ASAP since all you are doing is further poisoning your brand. As one of those customers that can easily order thousands of miners at a time, I can tell you that your miner is completely off the table after this fiasco.
805  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: Solution for ANTMINER S9 FANS SPEED Up & Down every 20 Seconds. on: January 04, 2018, 09:44:50 PM
I played with these hidden settings also.  The did seem to affect the intake fan but not the primary (and louder) outtake one.  Bitmain seems to have written the autotune firmware to ignore the fan % setting on one fan (and most of the other hidden options).  That is probably why they hid the options! 

The intake fan is the one that spins faster, the exhaust side is the slower one.

Not completely useless if it mitigates the heat effectively and is quasi-silent.

All heat mitigation solutions cost money.  But without cost specs and decibel facts, not sure how it stacks up against other cooling methods.

Its an industrial miner, the fans mitigate the heat just fine, sound should not even enter the equation.

You dont buy a Tesla and take it to an off road park.

You shouldnt buy industrial equipment and then run it in a residential environment.
807  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: Are there 240v surge protectors and watt meters for American miners? on: January 04, 2018, 09:40:39 PM
I'm talking about the voltage going out of an acceptable range, which in turn causes amperage to go outside of an acceptable range. If, for example, the voltage drops too low the amperage will go too high which will in turn cause the line to overheat.

Maybe I didnt qualify my very first statement enough for you by saying screwed up, inconsistant, or off grid power.

Sounds like you really need to get rid of that 'smart' meter. If you can prove it causes damages to your electronics you need to get rid of it.
808  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: Are there 240v surge protectors and watt meters for American miners? on: January 04, 2018, 09:33:50 PM
1. I have managed over 25000 miners in the past 3 years running unregulated power, so I might have an idea what im talking about. Also, I live in a 60 year old house with original wiring and have never had a surge bad enough to even trip a power strip, let alone blow anything up. I dont know where you have lived but surges bad enough to kill electronics are almost nonexistant these days with clean power.

2. I said dont run ATX, then you tell me a story about an ATX psu blowing up. This is why I mentioned a server PSU as they will go into protect rather than blow up if there are surges.

3. In practice an s9 draws ~6.5 amps at full tilt. 13 amp on a 15 amp circuit is pushing it a bit. If you want to be safe you dont choose to run a surge protector then overheat your wiring.....also you keep doing your calculations at 240 but you almost never get 240 all the way down to the last circuit so your numbers can be a bit off.

4. We are not derailing your thread so much as explaining to you that some of your theories are inaccurate and we are trying to give advise that makes sense so you dont waste your money on accessories that are useless.

5. A kill-a-watt meter will work fine on 220-240 as long as you dont try and draw more than 1800w so you can safely run them one per miner. i use them all the time here with the 235v I get at my test station. So there is your SIMPLE answer.



809  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: L3+ Way Overclocked! 500M frequency - 650 MH/s! on: January 04, 2018, 07:52:02 PM
Overclocking ASICs is always a really stupid move. Especially when you have no clue how they function and think that the temperatures are all that matter.

P.S. Stop being lazy and using nicehash, sit down for an hour and figure out how to do things the proper way and you will earn much more in the long run.
810  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: List of Coinn Can Mine on Raspberry Pi on: January 04, 2018, 07:44:05 PM
No need to repost. You will never be able to make money mining on RPi hardware. Its a $35 computer, what do you really expect out of it?
811  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Antminer T3+ coming out in China tmrw - 5000 units on: January 04, 2018, 07:37:28 PM
The new miner is rumour to be for btc or ltc?

BTC...theres no real competition for LTC miners right now so no reason to produce anything new.
812  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: How do you power an Antminer S9 in USA / Canada with 110v? on: January 04, 2018, 06:27:08 PM
So as long as you have it on one circuit per antminer, you can still use the 110v with the EVGA SuperNOVA 1600 shouldn't be a problem?
would u notice a loss in hashrate if not on 220-240?

You are talking about a nearly $500 PSU with average efficiency. Take that money and pay an electrician to run a proper 220v circuit, buy a $120 server PSU with more than enough power for the miner and then never worry about your setup again.

Why are people so afraid to just hire someone to do the proper electrical work?
813  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Minerwarez official Canaan Distributor on: January 04, 2018, 06:23:11 PM
Minerwarez does have a farm but it is very clean and if miners were running in there you would certainly not receive them filled with gunk.
814  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: nicehash or minergate is best ? on: January 04, 2018, 05:51:55 PM
That is far from the truth.  I pay my electrical bill simply by mining cryptonight using the processor that powers my GPU mining rigs,  Furthermore an AMD Epyc will outperform any gpu in cryptnight mining.

What kind of processors are you running? My i5 6500 makes $9/month mining XMR before power costs. I cant imagine most people with miners even have a processor that good. All of my Rigs run G3930 because anything more is just a waste of money.

Also, who the hell is going to stick an AMD server processor into a mining rig? The whole goal of a mining rig is to use the least amount of hardware needed to run it properly or you triple your ROI time.
815  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: GTX 1080 lowering GPU clock after prolonged use on: January 04, 2018, 05:43:07 PM
Thats how gpu boost 3.0 works

Does it downclocks even under load? So is it not possible to run at 2050 MHz for like 2 days? Then this means my hashrates won't be stabled. Any advice to overcome this. I mean run the GPU at 2050 clock like forever?

I run +100/+1000 on my EVGA 1080 Hybrid and it sits at 2050 mhz for days on end with EWBF once overclocked by afterburner. How are the card temps? Even afterburner will throttle you if you get too hot.
816  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: NVIDIA GPU:s not detected when using PCI-E riser on: January 04, 2018, 05:39:08 PM
What you really need to is ditch windows for Linux if you want to mine with that many cards on a single rig. Windows is unstable and tends to blow things up with random windows updates. Linux is so much more stable and is much easier to get a rig with that many cards running.
817  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: mining or just buy and hold? on: January 04, 2018, 05:31:40 PM
Your budget is not realistic to start mining on. Better to buy and hodl if you cant put any more money into it.
818  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Recommend me a cheap USB Miner on: January 04, 2018, 05:30:47 PM
USB sticks of any kind are good learning tools but are pretty useless if you are trying to mine for profit. Honestly it amazes me that people still waste money on them.
819  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: nicehash or minergate is best ? on: January 04, 2018, 05:28:13 PM
CPU mining is pretty much a waste of time so the answer is neither.
820  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: Genernal water coolling solution for AntMiner S9 S7 D3 L3+ , Pangolin M3 on: January 04, 2018, 05:04:43 PM
That looks like an insane amount of work and money that you will never get back. Its interesting as a proof of concept but completely useless in the real world.
