I thought during the time bitcoin talk was down this started to get setup on http://drillbitsystem.com/forum/index.php?board=1.0It still looks like its active and questions being asked. I don't wanna confuse the heck out of bartech and his affiliates but that may be an easier way to set up questions for now with a few more tastefull subsections added. I know the guy who runs abitcoin.org, so I could get a subforum for Drillbit there if it is wanted.. |

The grue lurks in the darkest places of the earth. Its favorite diet is adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale.

We should try to keep the detailed discussions in the smaller threads on the drillbit forum IMO. I think this is a good idea actually. Why don't we do that; continue PSU, cooling, heatsink, bitcoin apocalype/revolution tec discussion over at the forum and keep this one clear for getting more people 'on board'  ... I'm not too fussed, but i did like the way individual discussion could be started over there. Please feel free to keep using it everyone. Barntech |

Hey all.
Yes let's keep discussions on specific things over on the forum at drillbitsystem.net/forum. I'll try to jump in there when i can to answer questions. I'll also try to do up a specs sheet thingy which will hopefully address most of the questions being asked.
As for USB cables, i have decided that because i love you all so much, i'll send USB cables free with the miners when we send them out, so you don't need to worry about those.

That's a relief. I was searching for one of my old mini USB cables but all 6 of mine either disappeared, rusted ( absolutely nooo idea how that happened o.O ), or are in use on my USB hub... |

You want to see fun.... when I first started with block eroupters, I decided to follow the advise of a reviewer and use usb extender but that seemed to be difficult and more expensive to find on its own. I only found one in a 3 dollar sd car reader and haven't use the reader since I found it with it. That was fun  |

What a guy! So now you have reduced my prep for the boards to zero. I'm sure I'll come with something to occupy my nervous energy. Maybe I'll build a case.  |

Great. We are going by Bitstamp for the rate, which right now is $138 so $85 will be 0.616 BTC. You're welcome on the cables. Figured it makes more sense for me to buy them in bulk than for everyone to buy them individually. Barntech |

As far as i can see will both my old psu's available for mining are more then enough power able to feed anything either way OCZ GXS700 is a 700watts 3.3v (36A) 5 v (30A) max load 155 watts (combined 5+3.3) and 12 volt 4 x (18A) combined max 680 watts Antec TPQ 1200 is a 1200 watts 3.3 v ( 25A) 5v (30A) max load 170watts (combined 5+3.3) and 12 volt 6 x (38A) combined max 1200 watts LoL and if thats not enough i got 3 more if needed Anyway fopr easy of typing i call the 4 board drillbit mini planed system DB4 in my post It is kinda important to know what it is going to use 5 volts or 12 volts ? and how much power it will need. I do know alot about servers and networking but not in electronics The reason i ask is obvious i was planning on feeding the still not arrived saturn miner which is supposed to use around 450 watts with the TPQ 1200 however that is a pretty low load for this still very good psu so that would leave enough power to feed the DB4 if i am correct. However it depends on what voltage the DB4 board going to use and how many watts it will need What raised the question for me if "lets asume the DB4 use 5 volt 125 watts" will that mean that it still is able to deliver 1075 watts on the 12 volts rails or does it lower that significant? If the DB4 is going to be feeded by 12 volts then how much power it will need ? Ofcourse we need not to forget that alot of fans are going to be used as well, in my experience the fans kinda use often more then you think. I tested a the fan from a jala on my power meter and was shocked to see it needed 10 watts, i have not checked if all similar high cfm fans use similar power. But it simply means that 40 watts minimal will be used for the fans in the saturn and probably some extra for ther beaglebone. On the downside the antec does not have a power switch at all, i have contacted antec about this issue and still not received an answer Do any of you here know enough about these psu's to tell me if there is a way to switch it on/off by adding a simple switch on the connector. I have seen a person selling one with a fairly simple 2 pins switch, so my question is which switch will do 12volts 1 amp or does it need high amp ? Can it be placed like the paperclip method or does it need another pin setting ? Some people are telling fairly opposite stories about what happens when you simply pull the plug from the 220volt to turn that psu off Will it damage the parts of the devices or does it damage the psu ? There are a lot of discussions being made about this, but since i see answers saying one and other saying the absolute opposite i like to know from someone really knowing what he is saying in that matter. |
