So you charge $198 for the gridseed I wont revel the actual price.
300 khs + 8ghs
or
11.25

11gh stick is $192

Why would anyone choose the usb stick over the gridseed?

Just read how much power Gridseed is drwawing in btc or dual mode and you will have your answer. 

[LordTheron]

I'm not sure about initializing chips so I need to ask c-scape. If after couple of minutes your speed is below 12gh usually it means not enough power. Been running couple  sticks since yesterday and both are just over 12GH.

Im on win7 64, no extra options. No crash since yesterday with 2 devices, and 2 crashes on xp machine with 37 devices.  When I enable bxf bits over 54 my performance is doping drastically. I'm back on 4.01 with no options, and its running sweet at 12.5gh rock solid. not sure why is that but for now im goanna stick with 4.0.1 as it seems to work best for me.

XP is an interesting variable in the equation. If it's on windows, would it be too much to ask to try a debug version using the instructions here?

I will do that sometime tonight

I don't pay for electricity, maybe should have added that.. .

Not everyone is so lucky as you Also can you OC your gridseed up to 15GH? Don't think so... Hex is 50% faster  out of the box and can be overclocked to almost double the rate of gridseed

Issue resolved  it was my xp host running out memory and crashing cgminer. Added another RAM stick and now up for over 24hrs and no problems at all.

Hi, I am using cgminer 4.2.3, where the changelog says that hexfury should now be called HXF, no BXF, yet I see mine is still called BXF?

From gitbub it does look like the actual change may not have been in the 4.2.3 release, change made the 10th, 4.2.3 released the 3rd?
https://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer/commit/c72d7a7813450c98d3fabc2328e0461cc83f743f

I always run with verbose, and I also get lots of the already mentioned invalid job chip number messages, would be nice to have logs cleaned up.
https://github.com/KnCMiner/cgminer/blob/master/driver-bitfury.c#L481

Is there a place to download nightly builds of cgminer for windows?

The changes in 4.2.3 were generic before I received one. It has since been fixed in git but there is no release with the new changes yet. I do not do nightly builds at this stage, but I'll likely release a new version tomorrow. It being reported as a BXF will NOT adversely affect its performance by the way; it's only cosmetic and the extra information in the API if you are reading it.

Hi, any hints on how to get this to work with BFGMiner?
I am also running NanoFury II's, and these are not fully supported by CGMiner, half speed, so I need to use BFGMiner.
But BFGMiner does not like Zadig/WinUSB drivers.
And my Windows boxes do not auto install drivers for the hex fury (tested in W2K12R2 and W8.1).

What standard/BFGMiner driver do I use with hex fury, where do I get it?

It would be the same driver as for the BiFury. Search the forum a tad. I remember it being posted

[ManeBjorn]

Yes for now it uses the BFGMiner BiFury driver.
Soon it will have a better version and handling I have been told.

As the bifury driver is not signed, problem for x64 systems, I created my own self-signed driver for use with BFGMiner, get a copy of mine or sign your own here:

Sorry if I missed the answer. Will hexfury start on regular 500mA USB2 port? If yes what is the hashrate?

Edit: gridseed chip in dualminers consumes only 1.5W. It seems there is other reasons than power budget to not add up another chip or even few.

if it does it will be very very underpowered. so expect like 3-4 ghash

You should (but not guaranteed) get Hex running on 500mA port however I can't say how well and how stable its going to run. 500mA is way to low and shouldn't be used to power Hex. The design of Hex requires sufficient power to be delivered otherwise your device will not perform as or above advertised speed. Just to give you quick idea see below.

- 2A+  hub will give you 12.5GH-13.5gh no OC
- 1.5A hub will give you 10.5-11.5GH
- 1A   hub will give you  6-8GH
- 0.5A -Don't even bother as may get strange problems.

With OC, Hex will use around 2.4A @ 5.6V and will give you 14.5-15.9GH.

Edit: Just to add one thing, is is very bad for your Hex to be run on 500mA port. If all chips will get initialized, its fine, but if one or 2 chips will not get initialized properly(which is very likely on such a low power), the other chips will get overclocked automatically and will get very hot and even unstable.

[LordTheron]

Hey guys,

I've been playing around with razorfish hubs for a while and finally got around to modify it to remove 1.5A limit per port. I've modded 6 ports  for testing and results are awesome. Before the mod, Hex would happily hash around 11.5Gh max, but with the mod same units are 12.5-13.3GH and thats without OC. 76.9GH avg out of 6 devices 

[ptr727]

I am interested in the details of your mod?
