I bought this one, its the one danattacker mentioned earlier in the thread. http://store.atmel.com/PartDetail.aspx?q=p:10500053it does not come with a cable but Im sure you can cut down a 40 pin IDE cable, thats what Im planning to do.. my dragon will be here in a few days and when I flash my 5 ghs jally Ill post the results. BTW if you have a heatpipe jally there is plenty of clearance for the cable under the fins.

I might bought some extra for mass producing the boards ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Please let me know...

OT, but I will reply.. Why do people post "watching" rather than pressing the watch button and watching? Ah yes, to increase post count.
I haven't done this... but when you click watch, the thread goes on your "watchlist" right? Most people (myself include) probably check the "new replies to your posts" all the time, but not the watchlist. Anywho... one post closer to 500. ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) I get emails about watched topics. I don't see an option to set it otherwise, though I didn't look very hard. Posting "watching" is stupid (since the watch feature notifies) and selfish, as it just clutters the forum for the rest of us.

Do you need to use a Dragon or will other Atmel programmers suffice?

I've been reading through this thread and I think vapourminer mentioned that there's no cable included with purchase of the Atmel Dragon. He mentioned cutting down a 40 pin IDE cable but I don't even have such a common thing lying around.

nope no cable included. I did use a 40 conductor IDE cable cut down to 10 (2x5). the cable you linked to should be fine. any 2x5 cable with 0.1 inch pin spacing will work. after 7 hours its average is 8285.56 ghs, 81 hardware errors.

That's not too bad for HW errors, out of interest sake, have you tried reducing the speed slightly to see if the error rate changes substantially? Thinking that you might be on the threshold.

Any way we could get a step by step procedure (with pictures) to overclock these guys? I know computer hardware, but not at this level and I would rather not brick my Jalapenos in the process. Thanks for the effort!
