For the sake of completeness, here are the 5 that are running on 750w server PSU's - 24 hours and going.  The Hash rate is the same pool side -



Very interesting for sure.  Thanks for sharing all the information.   How many watt's are the miners using that are getting the high speeds with the 750 watt PSU's?

I am actually using 3 750w PSU's to power 2 miners.  

Have you been able to measure the amount of watts being used at the higher speeds?  That is quite a good OC from them.  

I'm curious how many watt's it's using to get that higher speed.  If you have a kill-a-watt or something like it you can measure it pretty easy.

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

I've lost 2 of this exact same model of kill-a-watt over a six month period. I'll never buy another one, now I just measure the amps on a PDU and estimate the watts. These things seem like they are made really cheap and it makes me question how accurate they are. Has anyone found another brand to compare these to concerning the wattage readout?

wait for a link I have another company


http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00E945SJG?keywords=watt%20meter&qid=1448125838&ref_=sr_1_2&sr=8-2


it read 2-3% higher then my kwatt meters.

don't run them with over 1200 watts for days on end . As all of these cheap ones die  if you do that.

Just picked mine up from oregonmines!  Matt drive over an hour to meet me halfway and seemed like a real cool guy.  The fact that these have direct factory warranty, oregonmines is local, and he was willing to drive out and meet me were big deciding factors

I got one on Friday and have been playing with it over the weekend - really love the workmanship on it, it's built like a tank.  I've been keeping things super hot in the room where it's mining just to see how it deals with the temps, and it's surprising tolerant - although the can control still needs some work, unless 74c is the ideal temp.  Wink 

Here it is happily sitting in my mega-rack - the rest of it's brothers will be on Monday and my S5 Mega Rack will transform into a Avalon Mega Rack.  Smiley

I would not go with this.  The Avalon 6 has temp control and is not out there burning up boards.   

So to copare it to a prisma.... is not really that accurate in my eyes.

and what does this mean?

please explain.


every aisc mining board is like a prisma board in one way they all use asic chips.

is this what you mean?

or do you mean avalon 6 boards will run hot and burst into flames?

Interesting to see Avalon still making units and now making along the same size of ant miners. Shame both cant get a good price and also a good watt usage out them If power could be reduced on them and a good price to buy then I would also buy. Maybe when Bitmain or avalon release something that is as powerful and half the power use then id be interested.

Compare to previous generations.  Your already getting a lot more power for your electricity use.   Just look at efficiency of Avalon 6 and S7 compared to previous generations.

Most that say they are going want something more power less electricity... just repeat that and never buy a miner.   Honestly this is the current gen, just like S7.  Your getting more for your electricity already.

what ? are you mining a secret generation we don't know about ? end game. A6 = the box of this generation. if you think your price on A6 is off, contact someone at oregonmines.com. We like the S7, we love the A6.

OregonMines is expanding. Are you expanding with us?

How much do they sell them for?

Also, I cant remember avalon6 thread I read this in, someone was requesting if someone would be able to turn off "smartspeed" and ssh login would probably be required. I offer up my services if whoever asked for that sees this post =)
I dont have an avalon6 but if ur willing to let me login remotely over ssh to one, I could figure out how things work =)

If your wanting to play with the firmware all you need is likely a RPI B or B+ .  You can flash it with the image from BlockC I put in my review - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1257327.0 .

But that should be all you need to ply round with firmware.  Will not be as fun with no miner on other side but should still allow you to modify it.

Kind of disappointing, not much of an increase from the stock .284w/gh.  Maybe more tweaking will show better numbers.

yeah I need to disable smartspeed.

oh silent miner it is.



It was philip.
