Did anyone at all received a 4 module without PSU unit yet?
I did, and I can't seem to get the damn thing to power up. I've tried two brand new PSU. AX 850 and an OCZ 1250. Both of them wont even power the fans. I don't understand why, I have my buddy helping me, we have even opened up my batch 2 to compare PSU. I can connect into the server but i can not get her to power up. Has anyone had the same problem? I figured it out, i had 4xPCIe (6+2pin) cables plugged into the all 4 of the slots on the PDU. I needed to plug in 2xPCIe (6+2pin) and 2xCPU (4+4pin) into the 4 slots. Now she is purring like a sexy little kitten. How you've managed to plug the keyed connectors wrong?

Happy to report my 3 module order #90XX arrived. The unit is running happily at 79 gigahashes on the pool. It was slowly overclocked to 347 Mhz over the past 5 hours, both unit and temperatures have been stable. Calculations at this speed show ROI will be met. Would be cool to add an extra module. Anyone know if/when upgrade modules will be available? Happy hashing to all Akhentek

If anyone wants to buy a part of a 4 module with me, then let me know. I will sell 50% of the 4 module (2 modules) for 82 btc. I will host the Avalon provided we split the wattage cost which is about ~1kw-~1.2kw/hour. The deal is through someone I bought part of an Avalon with already and he is willing to sell the whole unit to me. So essentially earnings will be 50/50 and power bill will be 50/50. I can even give transparency on the mining account too. Max OC is predicted to be 109GH/S so .5 of 109 = 54.66GH/S To be conservative lets say its 105GH/S. **actually i can do a better deal than 82btc, but I prefer 82 btc

The room is at 64 degrees with plenty of fresh air.
The hottest sensor in the Avalon is reading at 63-64, the others are at 50 and 25. My understanding from reading the Avalon users thread is that 70 degrees on a batch 3, is the old 50 degrees on batch 1 and 2 due to the new sensor.
I turned down the overclocking a bit and going to let these burn in for the next couple of days. It is easy to get excited and turn it up.

i have my 3 module doing ~82ghash/sec 73-85F room temperature on a 850w Seasonic Gold Modular P/S.
My question is what is the most one of you guys have pushed your Batch #2 or #3 to?

I am curious to know your frequency and how hot your sensors are reading in that environment. Thanks!

Received 4 mod Avalon today... nicely packed, but 9db antenna is missing... have to find replacement! Came with 101.24BTC invoice and they read BTC symbol = $, so that saved quite lot!

[frequency] => 357 [fan1] => 2640 [fan2] => 0 [fan3] => 2640 [temp1] => 31 [temp2] => 71 [temp3] => 56 [temp_max] => 71 hashing 82.5 gh/s I want to OC it more...who has experience with OC it past 85gh/s? I am considering a box fan OR using my Portable AC 10000 BTU Unit OR lowering temp in my apartment to 73F 24/7

They stated all batches after the first come with NO accessories or power cords. So no antenna is normal.

I am considering a box fan OR using my Portable AC 10000 BTU Unit OR lowering temp in my apartment to 73F 24/7 Hi greaterninja, It is great to be able to compare. Did you enable either --avalon-auto or --avalon-fans on this configuration? Regarding your overclocking questions, the unit is basically new. I would let it run at this rate for another few days, before pushing it past 85gh/s. The extra cooling will definitely be needed if you have a sensor at 71. I work with hardware and have previous experience pushing other types of gear really hard. This is my first BTC miner, figured I would treat it like the rest of my equipment. Thanks for the numbers!

Hey man. --avalon-auto is my other setting. i am running tests at 375. at 350 I get 83.x gh/s tops. I am going to try hooking up a portable A/C and maybe a box fan when I get home.

Pay close attention to your HW Error rate. At a certain point overclocking only produces more errors, not more hashes!
