Hello ,
Can you check what dmseg is saying about flash size and post the results.

On my tp-link host used with Lancelots with 8Mb flash it says

dmesg
-------------------------------------
[    0.730000] ath79-spi ath79-spi: master is unqueued, this is deprecated
[    0.740000] m25p80 spi0.0: found s25fl064k, expected m25p80
[    0.740000] m25p80 spi0.0: s25fl064k (8192 Kbytes)

I am curious because i am planning to build own image with some more applications (php, openvpn, 3g support and so on) and i am not quite sure if 4M will be enough. I will disable wireless drivers/apps whch is going to give me some free space but...it might be not enough

10X


openwrt rev r35097.
[    0.480000] m25p80 spi0.0: found en25q32b, expected m25p80
[    0.480000] m25p80 spi0.0: en25q32b (4096 Kbytes)

this kind of flash can be found in newer revision of wr703n / wr720n.

You may not success I think. including openvpn may eat a lot of space.
just for cgminer, if you can build a libcurl without openssl maybe there is chance. you should use a router instead.

remove the ppp support should free some space to allow updating cgminer to jffs2.
Thank you very much!

Or i can buy Wr-842N hack it with 64M Ram as i did already and forget about it:)

Wish you luck with your Avalon:)

Best

What is the power consumption difference when you overclock?

I'm not sure what you mean for "uve", is that voltage? not able to change it.

it seems you cant go above 300, since there are some duplicated work submitted, I think it is really a HW problem.

Sorry, thats short for you've =P ... ah so 300 seems to be the max? got ya. Welp, will be interesting once more people start testing their units to see what the variance is in overclockin & underclocking.

6 the PSU is Antec EA-650 Green (80P Bronze, not the Platinum one)

7 There is a power board(?) inside, on the board there are 2 * 6pin PCI-E power connectors remaining.
so if you want to replace a better PSU, make sure it have 2 more 6pin pci-e connectors MORE THAN EA-650.

Can you describe the power board better?

Is it a board that accepts the 20 or 24 pin ATX main plug and has spots for four 6-pin 12v PCIE connectors, and then distributes power to the modules, hub and router?  If so, is it a 20 or 24 pin socket?  Does it also have a 4 or 8 pin ATX CPU connector?  How many output spots does it have, and of what type?

updated some details about monitoring. it should have no difficulty if you have played with openwrt before. make sure you save and apply the settings.

Interesting review,How much noise are we talking about from a decibel perspective ?
I tried the sound level meter func from LINE Tools with my iPhone 4. you may consider this to be inaccurate.
~54 dB, location: 1 meter above the left back fans.
~63-64 dB, location: near (~ 15cm) the left back fans.

fan RPM are 2280 & 2640.

I'm a first batch Avalon buyer in China, purchased via taobao / alipay (& paid RMB).
Avalon sent the machine on Feb 18 & I got my first machine (*: my order is 3 machines) on Feb 20 and it hashes well on HHTT.
The first buyer in China got his machine afternoon or evening on Feb 18 (+0800) I think. Mine delayed for 2 days.

Currently (Feb 22) even someone in China get their Avalon (5 is confirmed including mine, no more than 10) in their hands, they each has only ONE machine delivered no matter how many are ordered. Avalon planned to ship the remaining at the end of Feb.

Here is some unordered summaries & notices that may help you prepare.
You may ask other related questions & I'll try hard to answer.

Tips will be appreciated: 1HFhtvzNEiy9eooLSJRMyZ1XB2FXgYGvCH
