just pulled a couple of S3s out of the garage to test them lol - what sort of share size should i be looing at getting to solve a block... its been a while since i mined anything - had a few S1s running pencil mods a few years back on here!
You need a share that is higher than the current difficulty. So the current diff is 19.28 trillion so you need a share that is that or higher for a solve Check out solochance.com and put in your current speed for an estimate of how long it may take to solve a block. thanks for the info! I was quite excited when i saw this but now not so much lol Best Share: 1,018,216,864 |

Been running my RX 480 in an unannealed print since posting this and not had any issues with deforming or anthing.
I have redesigned it to make the base stronger a bit longer so that i shouldnt need any additional support on the rear of the cards (however will still include it)

I have a few Antminers with 120mm fan intakes - has anyone added 120mm dust covers to them?
Any pro/con (apart from obvuisly less dust going into them)?
I tried that on my S5 units. ONCE. The temp of the miner went up a LOT due to the flow restriction the filters put on the fans. the filters arrived this morning, i will check temps today then clean one and fit a filter on the intake fan and see what happens - its only an S3 so shouldnt heat up too much more |

Filters will most likely reduce airflow and heat up the miner. If they are in your house, try keeping the house clean and you wont have enough dust build up to worry about it.
ouch... I'll tell that to the wife. In all seriousness though - they're in a fairly high traffic route (hallway) so they don't get filthy. its maybe every couple of months i de_dust them, i just figured having a filter would help - when they arrive i'll do some monitoring for a week and see if they have any negative effects. |

I've never used them, what type are you considering?
The Con I can think of off hand is you will be restricting the airflow. Not sure but as long as your ambient temperature is cool enough you might be okay.
i found a pack online of 120mm dust shields - just cheap and nasty lol... my miners sit in my hallway and heat my house but after a while fill up with dust so i turn them off and blow through with air |

Contemplating selling my 4x S1s if they have any value?
They will have brand new PCIe power connectors and are currently pencil modded.
if there is any interest i can post up pics later.

Tempted to dust off my old S1's with the pencil mod... what do you reckon or have they had their day?
I'm still churning along with x6 s3's one died a horrible death! I only have 4 S1s and i replaced them with S3s a while back... not convinced it was the best move if i'm honest lol... the S1s i'm sure were cheaper to run per Ghash! all running off a 1200w PSU How'd the S3 die? Not 100% sure heavy plastic burning smell and some smoke from the inside plugs on top are fine no burning so I guess its been something on the board that's burned out need to pull it open and have a look see. I have x6 running from a total of 2500W X1 Corsair RM1000x x1 Corsair RM850 x1 XFX 650 Sounds like fun - my 4 S3s are all running from one 1200w (AX1200) soon to replace all the cables with custom made ones - found the genuine ones to be running too thin cables (been running that same PSU pretty much 24/7 for atleast 4 or 5 years!) so thought it deserved a treat  16awg wires. |
