^that page says 20A for 16awg/12V (or 60A for a 6-wire PCIE connector, ~720A) which is just totally insane.
I sell quality 16awg cables and they start to be warm at >250W. at >300W they need airflow to keep for getting too hot. I haven't tried them past 320W, but I imagine they would become concerningly hot and/or begin to fail at >350W
Anecdotal evidence across these forums show that cable fires and failures in 18awg psus are common when loading >200W, and that 16awg generally does not push past 300W gracefully (such as for KnC devices)

it is 18 gauge so it should work. I think you may want to check the pcie with a meter for polarity and if it is good. use it on the controller as that uses the least power. Im always very cautious around 18awg since its not always 'ideal' quality. Good 18awg wire could probably handle 140W-180W on that connector. Less with he sheathed wire (reduced airflow). |

this means to steal, do not treat their customers well who buy more products from bitmain.
Unfortunately we all know that money is shit, is people uccede for money and commits horrible things, money is the meanest thing is disgusting that may exist
The price is fixed in bitcoins, and your wire transfer cost based based on the immediate exchange rate. what did you expect to happen if the bitcoin price rose? them demand more money? |

How low can they be clocked from the firmware ?
Id like to know what the S7s consumption at the wall at its lowest setting.
100M is available hahaha maybe u can try & tell us the results ? power consuption is mostly linear if the chip voltage is unchanged. even at 100M you might be 0.25-0.27w/GH still (I personally know as low as 350M works on the dropdown list, no consumption numbers though) looking at the numbers provided above, seems like at low frequencies its closer to 0.36w/GH @100Mhz (240w/670GH). server supplies likely have a 5-10% lower efficiency at <20% load, so a better psu (such as a 650W gold-ATX) might only draw 220W under the same conditions. Consider that fans are ~5W+5W, and the controller board likely draws 5-10W extra, and the hashboard-level draw is closer to 200W, or 0.30W/GH |

Todamont is obviously not very bright... go get Titan on those "securities" frauds!!! lol...
see the kind review he left you? kid's not right in the head, either exposed on a scam, or so upset at buying a redeemed coin from a 3rd party that something snapped |

I agree that 1BTC per coin is pretty pricey for the documentation. I think something like an extra .5BTC - 1BTC for a set of coins is more realistic.
My time is worth what it's worth. 1BTC is pretty steep but I'm the only remaining source for one-nub chains. FWIW I paid smoothie 0.5 BTC per coin for docs on three coins recently -- 1.5 BTC total. You think 1 BTC is expensive, just wait until you see how much I charge someone who turned down free docs two years ago and wants them now  so how much is it worth for a 2013 1BTC silver/gold coin that has full documentation that I am the first/only owner of the coin directly from Mike? I even have photogrpahic proof of opening up the roll, and retained the original shipping box  Did Mike PGP chain the coins over to you? Or do you just have a scan from him with pics of the coins? I have everything. PGP, back-and-forth emails, scan of the coins, original packaging, etc Coins were only ever handled once, using a fresh pair of nitrile gloves to move them to airtites. |

Lastly....
Why don't you simply publicly decline the 'bug bounty'. I don't like seeing that Tim made it 1 full bitcoin; however, being of my word, I will happily donate a matching 1 bitcoin to the same charity. I trust that Tim will choose a known charity and worthy of the donation.
I think that post was a mistype, since Tim said "0.1 BTC' a few times before that? well, i think this was wrapped up nicely. scammer failed to get any money from titanBTC, made himself look like an unstable gunowner, and then allowed the bug bounty to be donated on his behalf oh, and I guess todamond decided to leave me the only negative trust i have so far: Accused me of "baseless" accusations when I had clear evidence for every claim I made. This user slandered me. would love to know how any of these accusations are "baseless" or "slander". Only evidence todamont ever had was a picture of an unsealed coin and no record of who he bought it from. "User bought an unfunded titanBTC coin from a third party, threatens to sue, protect himself with a gun, and accuse titanBTC of securities fraud over a dozen times within 24hrs on a single thread" |

^jesus christ, stop with the empty accusations and go file the relevant police/court documents then.
regardless of the exact database state, it NEVER said that the coin was funded, and you bought it from a 3rd party without doing this fairly simple research.
On top of that, you cant even remember who you bought it from, which is pretty shady.

I can not accept any payment on this coin, now, ever, as it could implicate me in theft or fraud. I don't want to be seen as someone who may have tampered with a coin or as someone who has taken payment to "shut up" about any possible fraud scheme perpetrated by Titan Btc.
You're an idiot who does not understand when people (namely Tim) are actively trying to help you out, and simultaneously falls for the oldest scam in the book (of buying something worthless without doing research) If you stopped screaming "lawsuit" over and over, you might actually be able to read TitanBTC's replies  or just file the police report and let them work with TitanBTC for you. You have been threatening that for a few days but failed to actually do anything but mention your gun ownership and allude to wanting a restraining order against a customer service rep |

Chip delivers a minimum of 100 gigahash per second of computing power. On average, the BitFury 16nm ASIC can compute in the range of as high as 140 gigahash per second using air cooling, and up to 184 gigahash per second using immersion cooling so one h-card will be 10/14/16 x 100 ghs = 1/1.4/1.6THs and 16 of these on a m-board will be 16/22.4/25,6THs? @ 0.06 J/GH 25.6TH on an MBoard would be 1.5kW. Although possible, I think it's unlikely. m-boards originally had issues when pushed past 600W, but that was largely due to there only being 2xPCIe connections (and 300W/each is too much for most wirings). There is/was an extra pair of screw terminals though, which could likely handle 600W+ themselves. If you used all the connections available, you could likely achieve up to 900-1200W, which require active cooling and likely heatsinks. |

I quote air cooling stats because I have no rodent hindquarters to donate regarding immersion cooling. I want to play with these chips and I design for practical air cooling because that covers myself and all my target customers. I do not care at all what Bitfury builds for themselves or their millionaire buddies. That's my reason; can't speak for anyone else.
Indeed...and designing a power stage to deliver clean and effecient .3v power should be interesting haha, even at 5w were talking about near 20amps of current. The only way to achieve those efficiencies at that voltage level is with a chain design...otherwise your looking at less than 80% efficiency just at the buck at those voltages. Bitfury has been doing chain/string design since 55nm (they didnt sell many that i know of, but they did buid H-cards withvirtually no components other than the ASIC chips) The first version had issues with chips overheating when one or more other chips completed work and returned to 'idle' before the next clockcycle/nonce  Probably safe to say they fixed it with the 14chip version that used rev2 55nm chips (at 0.45w/gh):  Even now, I am still tremendously impressed by the simplicity and functionality of the bitfury design. Id love to have some of the upcoming 16nm gear |

^I still suggest you try modifying the setting in cgminer.conf.factory and then hard-reset the device with the physical push-button. If that command can adjust the voltage, a reset might "force" the change and would possibly make a lot of sense depending how the chips are programmed initially for factory specs

I have given Tim Fillmore 1 month to make good on this physical coin or I will file legal action. I have offered to "split the loss" on this disputed coin. please see the referred thread.
can you please stop with this nonsense? 1) you bought the coin from 3rd party 2) you did not verify its balance prior to purchase 3) you dont remember who you bought it from 4) you told titanBTC to stay away because you have a gun in your house 5) you declared "formal accusation" over 2 dozen times in different posts in the last 24hrs 6) See Tim. Now I am under suspicion. Everyone who ever came into contact with that coin is under suspicion and it is marked "unfunded".
FUCK! Thanks a lot. Merry fuckin' Christmas 2015. Sorry if your whole business coming under suspicion of securities fraud is inconvenient for you.
7) I hate you because of this.
whatever sympathy I had for your issues went out the window when you stopped being remotely rational |

Bitmain's support SUCKS big time !!! I received the S5+ (7.7T SUPPOSEDLY) at the beginning of September and I immediately opened a support ticket (5th of Sep.) because the results I got with the miner were AWFUL ! I was waiting for 10+ days for a single reply, and each time their reply was asking me "did you do this, did you do that" although I explained in details what I've done, so they were obviously just stalling. This took like 3 months of Q & A , going into circle with the same questions over and over , to finally notice that beginning December they CLOSED the ticket like it's been solved!!! I re-opened the ticket 10 days ago - and guess what - NO reply yet !!! They didn't offer ANY solution for the whole time !!! They tried to put the blame on the PSU's, so I bought 3 new 1600w PSU's !!! For nothing !!! I'm still getting like more than 70.000 HW errors per day showing 6.5T at the max  THE WORST COMPANY WITH THE WORST SUPPORT !!! *E*V*E*R* ! ! ! The easy way to lower hw's is lower the freq setting. What is your freq setting? 325M the default freq. I tried lowering it to 293.75, but things got just slightly better; that was the moment when I got convinced that the PSU's don't do their job, but guess I was wrong. I tried also to increase it, but got even worse results. so reducing frequency helped reduce HWerrors? sounds like a thermal issue. What are your fan settings, ambient temp, board temps? can you post a picture of the stats page? if the ambient is >25C that could potentially have a big impact on performance, and you might be forced to run the miner at <300MHz in order to reduce the hardware errors |

My fault was that I didn't check a verify page that I didn't know existed? Or is it my fault that Tim signs fraudulent certificates saying coins have been funded, when his database and website indicate that they haven't?
Is it this coin you bought?: "Bought a (redeemed) 1btc titan physical bitcoin, silvergoldandbitcoin shipped the coin and it arrived as expected." (source: you left this trust review for someone selling redeemed coins) And yes, i'd consider it your fault you did not validate a coin you purchased from a 3rd party. If you had done any reasearch before spending >1BTC on a coin you would have seen that TitanBTC strongly recommends validating the balance before purchase or resale. I don't remember who I bought it from and I would not implicate them in the chain of ownership if I did. There may have been any number of owners between the original owner and myself, and it's not fair to throw any number of people under suspicion of theft or fraud over this unfunded/redeemed coin issue.
digging yourself a hole I don't even want any payment on this coin any more. I just want awareness that Titan Btc is not to be trusted. I want awareness, from the DA. I wish I was never associated with this fucking coin.
I hate you because of this.
man, you turned the rationality knob down to 1, and snapped off the insanity slider. I'm actually concerned by the fact you own a gun, because all you are doing is posting the same "security fraud" accusation over and over, and showing anger that TitanBTC seems fairly willing to work with you in a criminal investigation THAT YOU KEEP SAYING YOU WILL PERSUE |

Our coins have a few different page "states" which may show up when you go to verify its value on our website. "Not-yet-funded", "Funded" and "Redeemed". The funded page state is different for 2FA coins vs. Private key coins, as well. When the coins are shipped, that "Not-yet-funded" page state will be visible until the user verifies that they have received the shipment. With 2FA coins, the user enters in a confirmation number from their packing slip and the email address and password they want to register the coin to. When they've clicked a confirmation link that arrives in their email, that page state changes to show that the coin is funded. With private key coins, the buyer emails us to confirm safe delivery and we change that state in the DB manually. At that point, the coins will show as "Funded" until a redemption request has been made. Coins may show as "not yet funded" in a few scenarios. 1. A reseller on ebay is trying to dodge eBay rules against selling bitcoins. As such, they are waiting to do the initial coin registration until they have resold the coin. It is being advertised EXPLICITLY as unfunded so that eBay does not kill the auction. A buyer would really need to trust the seller if they were to purchase this type of coin because of option 2... 2. A coin may have been "lost" in transit. This has happened many times where a buyer claims that the package didn't arrive. We don't dispute those claims. We just send out a replacement shipment. Every coin is unique, so the replacement has a unique coin ID from the one that was originally sent out. If a buyer continues to claim that they aren't receiving their orders after multiple attempts (even if we have delivery confirmation from USPS) we simply refund their purchase and apologize. 3. I made a mistake when updating the Database field that dictate the page states. Option #2 means that there coins out there that are intact but unfunded, and will never be funded because they were marked as "lost". We do keep records of these coins, and there's about 2 dozen of them. Todamont's coin was not one of these "lost" coins. That would be easy for us to claim, but that's not the case here. His coin was registered in 2013 and redeemed in 2014. The page state for the coin in question should say "redeemed" and it does not. This was likely scenario #3. A mistake on my part in updating the flag that determines the page state, as the DB update was done by me manually. Instead of correcting the "error", we've left it as is until we've been able to complete the vulnerability analysis on our servers. I'm happy to explain further but it probably makes sense to answer specific questions at this point.
This unfunded coin sale on ebay is very, very unusual. Specifically the "certificate of authenticity" stating:
"At the time of sale, this coin was certified to be uniquely associated with an address which bears the amount and type of the cryptological currency stated on the coin's obverse."
Signed by Tim Fillmore
ebay.com/itm/TITAN-ONE-BIT-COIN-UNFUNDED-HOLOGRAM-RARE-COLECTOR-COIN-NOT-CASACIUS-LEALANA-BTC-/111849058989?hash=item1a0ab932ad:g:l7QAAOSwrklVYzfE
This really, really looks like some of the coins that Tim certified as funded were, in fact, not funded.
to play a devil's advocate here, I feel like TitanBTC owes slightly more detailed response to a few things: 1) Including a certificate that says the coin is associated with a funded address BEFORE that occurs is misleading and opens up these sort of issues. If you want to include an authenticity card like that, it should be shipped as a seperate document AFTER the coin is funded. When you sign up for college/university, they dont give you a diploma until AFTER you meet the criteria, even though the diploma was included in the cost. see the commonality between a "to-be-loaded coin" and a "to-be-graduated student"? 2) we know the coin is this one: https://www.titanbtc.com/verify/vFZKfWyJ/ Surely you can provide a more detailed explanation of sale date, and if it was sold to anyone who has reported lost coins or otherwise requested not to load the coins. Is the 1BTC for the coin still in a coldwallet waiting to be validated by the original buyer? 3) what about that ebay coin? id like to know how that is possible. is it a "lost" coin? |

Here is an image of the coin and the hologram. Don't bother trying to redeem it, lol.

Any chance the Batch8 is software controllable? digging around vi SSH (root/admin), found these references:
etc/config/cgminer.conf: "bitmain-voltage" : "0706"
etc/cgminer.conf.factory: "bitmain-voltage" : "0725"
seems strange that they are different, yet still necessary to reference. Anyone know what voltage the B8 actually runs at?
currenty playing with the values to see if they do something It would be great if they do something.... but my gut feeling is that those numbers look very familiar from all sorts of conf files in other miners that do nothing? They don't seem to do anything, but why put a digital pot adjustable over I2C with a PIC just to control it if you just set a fixed value? Some people with better Antminer firmware knowledge may be able to unlock it if it's locked somehow. I considered this method: change the cgminer.conf.factory to 0706 and then do a factory reset - perhaps it will force the voltage change? |
