You're beating mine well done, we're still a way off Jakes though . If you post your imgur link like this (without space between i and m): [i mg width=500]https://i.imgur.com/0cTewdN.png[/img] it displays here like this with 500 pixel width which you can change :

well on the good side you are only 5 hours off the 24 hour qualifying number for most shares. Make sure to post two more at the 24 hour and say the 25 hour mark. you will be first to finish.

shiny! 400 Mhz 22+ ghs in that screenshot! I tried for that and couldnt fire it. got 390 for overnight a few times but only 380 for the contest what hub/whatever etc are you rolling with? No hub does the trick! Only Y-cable with external power. It will run @425 but i've to little time to filter the noise on the wires. It will run but throws about 10 HW per minute. So i let it run @400 for the race. Stable for 3 days now .... yup the other day I had a 2200 uf cap on the power leads on a droc power supply @ 5.25v at the socket. ran 390 mhz 16+ hours with one (count em, one) hw error. but it was hard to fire it sometimes.. maybe 2 out of 10 times it fired but the other 8 it would fail with the usb_lib thing. but I "improved" the setup last night. of course I ran out of time and it was a crappy job so I didnt trust it. so with 20 minutes left on my 7-7:30 am start I went to "plan b" ie I just scrapped it and went with a molex connector from teh usb socket right to my seasonic x750 psu. no caps on it. tried for 400mhz but Failed. btw no hardware errors 7 hours in @ 47*C what external power supply? for me at least the contest is more of a hardware/fun/lulz thing: what works? how far? and what did you do to get it.. far more interesting to me than winning I

Ok, I am up and running for the contest. I've not run a stick this hard yet, so here's to hoping it's still alive tomorrow at this time! Good luck, everyone.

but I "improved" the setup last night. of course I ran out of time and it was a crappy job so I didnt trust it. so with 20 minutes left on my 7-7:30 am start I went to "plan b" ie I just scrapped it and went with a molex connector from teh usb socket right to my seasonic x750 psu. no caps on it. tried for 400mhz but Failed. btw no hardware errors 7 hours in @ 47*C
So you use a Y cable: - power+data in a hub to miner - power only connector connected to an ATX 5V (red/black) molex directly ? Hum... that's interesting... I've got to get my hands on some cheap cables to make some adapters....

Step down gives 5A steady and 8A peek but costs only a few bucks.

I've got to get my hands on some cheap cables to make some adapters.... no here is my setup right now, my "improved" version - I ran out of time to perfect heh so I reverted to backup plan below seasonic x750->molex 4 pin->old scrap front panel usb circuit from old antec case->compac the hot lead is cut on the data cable, the seasonic only powers the stick to avoid competing power supply problmes this is my running-right-now contest setup http://imgur.com/XqkcTfYhere is the build pic with 16 gauge wire, direct soldered to socked, 2200uf cap etc http://imgur.com/PJJNjGzEDIT woot I finally learned how to post imgur pics and use img tags. horray for me

Its an arctic usb fan shifting lots of air, it is spinning just think it's exposure setting on camera looks like it isn't . The heatsink feels cool to the touch even though its running at 300MHz. One with the fan spinning :
