[Work in progess] Burnins Avalon Chip to mining board service

[SebastianJu]

Can someone tell me if i can run more than one bitburner connected with a usb cable on one rpi and giving each miner its own settings? That would speed up tweaking a lot. But i guess one started cgminer would find them all isnt it? Is there a way?

LCD screen on the way, thanks to Sebastian's tip

Dont forget the cinch-cable to connect both the monitor and the rpi...

Right, should have one (or more) of those lying around somewhere, since they always include them with everything and I never use them

Male-Male RCA if I'm correct

Im not sure what that means but the connector at the rpi is the same kind it is at the monitor.

All for that, I plan to put my refunded money into Bitfury chips, or maybe Cointerra if anyone ends up doing a group buy. I'd happily let Burnin keep my money as credit until a time arrives where he can produce boards for those chips.

oO You already know the difficulty isnt only rising exponentially, the prozentual rise is rising exponentially too...

Sebastian, that does not make sense to me. Difficulty is rising exponentially and then percentage is calculated on exact rise value. One can not be spearated from other.
Or better to say those two are equal - if diff is rising exponinetlly then at the same time so as percentage....
Or am I wrong?

Here you go.

the funniest thing to do is to read the first page of all those custom hardware new vendors and then jump straight to the last page. All of the posts start like "i love you,  i want to buy it now,  i wanna a baby with you" and then in the past page: "scammer, i sue you, i want answers now".. while fpgas and asic miners are hated or outdated, they are up and mining

He he, you are right.  Thank god for someone with a sense of humour in all this.

I hope that if the refunds do go to plan (HA HA, there's another joke for you because I hope upon hope for the organisers of the groups buys they do, but you know they won't), that we use a proportion of the refunds (in real world money, as that is what they will have had to spend) to make sure that the Group Buy Organisers AND the board makers are not left in financial trouble either.

burnin is 100% legal! He could deliver your assembled boards (excl. avalon chips) and thats it. He even do not have to refund the costs for assembling of the avalon chips if he already paid for an assembling slot or bought machines for e.g. Everything he refunds is because he is a nice guy. Think about that!

You have bailed out a while ago by selling your chips! You have ordered but unpaid for burnin service! I'am not arguing your statemant, but think you are hypocrit. My opinion, nothing else.

Not to take anyone's side, but anyone could also wait and pay to burnin when chips come. It was expected for chips to have unknown day of arrival and having that in mind anyone could guess it is unwise to pay assembly in advance. Burnin himself offered delayed payment with wire transfer but many had to pay immediately and not think about it for minute or two. Of course one could guess that money will be used to buy parts and be ready for chips, and you shouldn't expect less from a german guy.

I believe burnin isn't giving away his assembly effort nor his margin and I also believe he shouldn't. He is doing business and he is good at what he does, and if some of us made mistake by paying upfront, burnin shouldn't pay for it nor feel obligated to compensate for anyone's lack of clear judgement. I posted this not to flame wars, but to state my opinion.

An hypocrite for being reasonable!? I don't think so.

If Difficulty rises exponetially, the prozentual rise is exponetial too, since the prozentual rise is the derivation of the difficulty rise. The derivation of the exponential function is the exponential function itself. If the difficulty rise will be polynomial of order n or even linear, then the procentual rise will be of order n-1, or for linear difficulty rise = 0.

Ok guys, I am willing to sell my order @ burninmining to someone, because Yifu will refund the chips.  

no chips, just bitburner boards.


my order no.

#489 - > 23 bitburner XX boards with cooling solution + 2 x CAN bus cable + DHL express + VAT
#661 - > 4 bitburner XX boards with cooling solution  + VAT
#711 - > 3 bitburner XX boards with cooling solution  + VAT

--------------------------


PM me if you are interested.  

[CumpsD]

You forgot to state which batch numbers your chips were in, and if you sell those with it, or if you are just selling a bitburner pcb

And is it with or without cooling

(not interested though :p)

[vpereira]

shame on you (the seller is probably reading it) http://www.ebay.de/itm/Asic-Miner-Bitburner-XX-bis-18-GH-s-/251326535529?pt=DE_Computer_Sonstige&hash=item3a843a9769 // he says "its everything there, avalon will arrive in the next weeks".. that's scam.

Ok got my boards running but when i put the "-queue 4" option to cgminer i get this error: "Unexpected extra commandline arguments". Why?

use --queue 4

That doesn't make any difference for me.

Ok that worked. Thank you.

Edit: I am currently running with these settings: --avalon-options 115200:28:10:29:415 --avalon-temp 58 --avalon-freq 415 --bitburner-voltage 1280 --avalon-fan 100 --queue 4  The boards are running at 53 degrees, but the avg speed is at 102Ghash. Shouldn't i be getting ~116Ghash?

[Yanz]

Has anyone else ordered water cooled bitburners and gotten normal ones instead? I also have some broken off parts as well.

How many boards are you running?

14. As stated in burning news : "The first part is the baudrate, always 115200. The next value is the number of miners, this must be the number of boards in cluster multiplied by 2."

For those that received a refund i could give a discount on a new bitfury order of about 70% of the not-returned funds.

Will these be boards or USB sticks?

But we all have to ask ourselves: is bitfury going to deliver?

Punin is shipping in August as promised. Bitfury chip prices seem to be rising though as there's currently no competition.

Executive summary:
50% refund guaranteed.
70% money recovered when ordering a BitFury product.

Is this % of price with or without VAT?

Today's news about Yifu preferring refunds for groupbuys makes me think hard about what to do with my Bitburner orders

I'd like to get at least some boards, but dunno if there will be any chips before Christmas. Reading between the lines about partial refunds it seems Yifu hasn't even ordered chips from TSMC.

link to news?

[Roy Badami]

Today's news about Yifu preferring refunds for groupbuys [...]

C'mon, don't take this out of context.  I don't think YiFu prefers anyone to ask for a refund.  The context of this quote is him saying that he'd prefer to just refund people as opposed to considering the various requests to give chip buyers partial refunds, or extra chips, or a trade in to next gen products.

[burnin]

Boards like the BitBurners.

More details on the refunds:
Shipping - 100%
VAT - will be calculated and refunded partially
Power supplies - 100%
BitBurner Boards - 50%
Stacking Cables - 50%

Burnin,

Have you received Batch 2 chips from Zefir?
