Does anyone use one APW3++ to power two giant B’s?

Just to be clear since these units are ASIC miners (and not FPGA as originally thought), any 'new' algorithm released would already have been hard-coded into the chips in your rig. It would simply be a matter of the 'unlocking' them. With the X10, X11Gost, NIST5 and Groestl have been there all along. They recently unlocked X11Gost and NIST5, but Groestl remains locked. You can see Baikal is mining Groestl with their own rigs. After all, Groestl brings negative profit for any GPU yet the hash on the network is very high.

Yes, I use APW3++ to power all mine in a 1:1 ratio. They work fine.

Yes, I use APW3++ to power all mine in a 1:1 ratio. They work fine. What about powering two miners with one APW3++ PSU, have you tried that?

what coins use Blake256R8 algo?
There are a couple different variants of the Blake256R8 Algo. The Main one being BlakeCoin + Merged Mined Child Coins Also Vcash switch from Whirlpool to Blake256R8 but the header is different so they are not compatible They were also a few other coins that implemented a variant of the Blake256R8 algo, just can't think of them right at the moment The BlakeCoin Dev BlueDragon747 has sent an email to Baikal trying to verify compatibility I have also sent an email and asking the same ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Any updates on this? Can the Baikal Giant B mine Blakecoin?

Hi,
Yes you can use 1 awp3++ for 2 giant-b. Yes you can mine blakecoin.

![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fibb.co%2FeNXVK7&t=665&c=d9nD_OvoCaCzQg) After a power outage, I noticed that my "total chips" have gone from 64 to a lesser amount. Has anyone had this problem? I've reset each of the miners with no change in chip count. I have not tried reflashing the SD.

I had this problem on my baikal giant x10.. but randomly after some days the total chips amount went back to full.. I've heard dissembling the hashboards and miner controller and putting it all back together may have fixed this problem for someone else

Are there better options than Nicehash for Giant B?

Hi. On my Giant B, I did a SD card reset (it was freezing more frequently recently). When I turned it back on, the red LEDs are solid, and the blue LEDs don't light. I can connect to the GUI and I have the "no devices running" banner. I realized that I plugged the orange pi incorrectly. I offset it forward (away from the heat sink) by one pin. I reset it correctly, but red on, blue off persists.
I read the post about "STM Device in DFU Mode" and thought I hit paydirt, but "lsusb | grep 0483" returned "Bus 007 Device 003: ID 0483:5740 STMicroelectronics STM32F407"
I traded the OPI/controller with my X10 and the X10 still works.
I got nowhere with Baikal support.
Can anyone help, or have I killed the B?

You didn't kill it. I have the same problem everytime after A power down.
You did something not correct with the commands.
Did you also do the 2 echo commands?

In reference to the above post: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fibb.co%2Fem6YPx&t=665&c=y9B9fpPck2R76A) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fibb.co%2FjvWNHH&t=665&c=kvr_l_2s0qtViA) Thanks for your post. I've been looking for an example of the setup screen for the Giant B. I hope to have one online sometime today. Do you see a significant difference in your mining when using the "baikal-fan", "scan-time", and "no-submit-stale" options? Thanks. Funny you bring up these questions about scan time and no submit stale.. I have a 4 baikal Bs mining pascal on nicehash.. this could be totally random but i set one of them to not have either option on and another to only have scan time on.. the other two have both on. It seems that the one with only scan time often has higher accepted hashrate than the other 3.. and another maybe.. the one with both disabled has higher accepted hashrate then the other 2 but less than the first..this could be wrong as it only shows current hashrate and not average over 6 or 12 hours for each rig unfortunately.. but i'm thinking of setting all of them to have scan time enabled but no submit stale disabled as that does seem to make a difference for pascal on nicehash (not 100% sure tho).. other pools it might not make a difference If this helps your hashrate, please send over a merit point or two!

Yes, even though it didn't seem to be in DFU Mode, I did eventually try the 2 echo commands. susb | grep 0483 still returns Bus 007 Device 003: ID 0483:5740 STMicroelectronics STM32F407 I don't know what else to try.

Is this worth buying now? Also, does this run loud like an Antminer?
Thank you in advance.

Probably depends on the ambient temp and other operating settings and also seems like the protocol its processing would affect heat alot along with the power. i think it will happen like with the x10 - till we get it is not really profitable anymore. atm lybr would give about 490$/day.
Sounds good depending on the daily average power usage over hashrate, uptime and the going price for these actually delivered. I would also only order on a credit card in case of 'delays' pays to be paranoid
