Bitburner Fury - Hashrate Protection

[tarmi]

Guys who recieved their boards...before recieving your boards were there any status changes on your fedex trafikamang page?

Or boards did show out of nowhere?

[solosequenosenada]

Arrived 

[mruiter]

Stil have not received the board or a fedex update.
Also no reply to a mail send......

I've ordered directly after refund coupon came available, so i think i should be week 1 !?

Getting a USB write Error ...

I don't know what version of firmware you're using, but try using this one:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/fvc970hel90qwgd/bitburner-fury-firmware_1.2.4.hex

For instructions on updating firmware, see:
http://www.burninmining.com/assembly-instructions-part-2/

I have done that successfully!

But still I don't get any better results .... still usb_write error ...

I tried on the notebook and even there I'm not able to get with cgminer.3.5. a working connection ...

A reminder of what cryptx said:

Every order made before septembar 17th will be delivered in the first week of october.

[darkfriend77]

arrived ...

can anyone give a short info ... about parameters for the bitburner fury? ... for cgminer?

Is the avalon stuff valid for BitBurner Fury too?

Try this:

Code:

./cgminer --config <insert pool config file here> --avalon-options 115200:16:10:d:256 --bitburner-voltage 1230

Here's an explanation of the avalon-options parameter:

• 115200: baud rate. Ignored by firmware.
• 16: number of miners. Set this to 16 * number of boards.
• 10: chips per miner. Ignored by firmware.
• d: timeout. Ignored by firmware.
• 256: frequency. This sets the frequency of the external clock. The theoretical hashrate is 11.63 * frequency.

Like with the BitBurner XX boards, --bitburner-voltage controls the core voltage. However, since BitFury is 55 nm instead of Avalon gen1's 110 nm, the actual core voltage will be 300 mV less than what you set here. So "--bitburner-voltage 1230" will set core voltage to 930 mV. (Future versions of the firmware/cgminer will probably use a different identifier to avoid confusion.)

It is normal to get hundreds of HW errors/duplicate work on the first run after power up. This is a firmware bug. It should resolve itself in 30 seconds. If you do want to get accurate measurements of HW errors, run cgminer for 30 seconds, then restart cgminer.

Can you provide a working rasp image? this might help ...

Well, mine was directly after coupon processing on the 15th.

So that's a fail for on time for my order

So hashrate below 64 GH/s?
My last email reply said they will ship mine on Monday, #107x

Can you provide a working rasp image? this might help ...

I have no problems running the bitfury miner on the pi with the image "2013-07-26-wheezy-raspbian.img". Did you try another USB Hub?
I compiled cgminer 3.5 with options "--enable-icarus --enable-bitfury --enable-avalon".

But the board only does around 40-45 Ghash/s. That's really disappointing. 
My options are "--avalon-options 115200:16:10:d:256 --bitburner-voltage 1230".

[coin@coin]

Can someone who received their orders confirm the actual hash rate per board? Thanks in advance.

My options are "--avalon-options 115200:16:10:d:256 --bitburner-voltage 1230".

You could try overclocking and overvolting. I believe the maximum is 1100 mV (i.e. --bitburner-voltage 1400). You would need to do some testing to see what the optimal frequency is, but I think something around 300 MHz is achievable (based on the prototype that I have).

I should expand on what I said before. Theoretical hashrate is 11.63 * frequency, per chip. So for example, at 256 MHz, that's 2.98 GH/s per chip or about 47.7 GH/s per board. A frequency of 300 MHz corresponds to 56 GH/s per board.

Thanks someone42, has burnin given any indication of what he considers to be "safe"?

UPDATE 16/09/2013

Hashrate protection

These refunds will be given when the tested hashrate of the board is below 64 GH/s:

• 100€ refund for each board

1. The boards doesn't seem to hash at promised  64 GH. Does that mean your advertised "hashrate protection" is activated?
[/list]

"The hashrate protection" is already in place: I think that cryptx is already hashing with customer's boards. Once they hit 100 euros of hashes, you will get "the refund" and the board.

Thank you for explaining that in detail.

I tried various settings but I am still far away from the promised 64 GHash/s. What a shame!

Guys who recieved their boards...before recieving your boards were there any status changes on your fedex trafikamang page?

Or boards did show out of nowhere?

Anyone?

+1. Same for me, order 15th sep. No boards received.
