[SOLD OUT] NEW USB MINER - 5 Gh/s NANO FURY II USB MINER, **$39.00**

[-ck]

- cgminer uses its own version of the HID driver (Zadig). So in order to use cgminer you have to trick Windows to replace the driver for a particular device with Zadig's.

I hate to be pedantic but this is not quite true.

The device talks USB while HID is a driver designed for user interface devices like keyboards and mice, so when using software that uses this driver, it goes device -> usb -> hid driver -> software. Zadig is not actually a driver; it's a utility to tell windows to remove the driver and use the microsoft direct usb communication protocol (effectively a Microsoft driver called WinUSB). So while WinUSB appears to be a "driver" it's actually telling windows to just give the raw usb data to the software. So software that uses WinUSB (like cgminer which uses it for every single USB device) is talking directly to the usb device, bypassing the need for any driver, so it is going device -> usb -> cgminer.

Having said that, we don't have support for 2+ chip nanofury based devices, but VS3 is kindly sending me some devices to add support to cgminer, thanks!

Con - thanks for the clarification! That's actually much better than mine! (which was rather simplified when it shouldn't have been as much)

[Swimmer63]

Reminder to all to make sure you are only using the OP link for Bfgminer.  Other versions do not work (yet).

[Swimmer63]

Also - if you are interested in the NF6 (11-12 Gh/s)you can order them via our Assembly thread at

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=545507.0

This is the only way to get a Nano Fury 6 until some in our group start selling them after our assembly service is complete.

We will be closing the group and starting PCB production next week.  Minimum order of 8 required.

Please add any questions to the Assembly thread (not this one) or PM me. 

Thanks!!

I just tried 4.3.3, still running at half speed.
Any indications of when CGMiner will support full speed for NF2's?

Any indications of when CGMiner will support full speed for NF2's?

In case you've missed it:

I've added support for NF2 and NF6 into cgminer git master branch. (...)
The NF2s are behaving very nicely. This is at --nfu-bits 54:

Code:

 14: NF2 00001099:                         | 4.670G / 4.655Gh/s WU:    65.2/m
 23: NF2 00000753:                         | 4.447G / 4.509Gh/s WU:    63.6/m

[Harlbatr]

is it even worth to buy these ? Will they ever ROI ?

[btcminer84]

5 GH/s at $49.00 USD? This is very expensive. Maybe $8.00 USD and I buy it, if delivery is instant.

Will they ever ROI ?

No. It is -$42.00 USD "win" (lost).

Hmm, windows build instructions here I come.
Any known cgminer nightly build resources our there?

Thank you.
I think my hubs are running out of juice now that both chips on the NF2 are being lit up.

I just ordered 2 of these Nano Fury IIs, and I got them yesterday. I plugged the first one into my computer and opened bfgminer, it was running at about 2.5 gh/s, even when I raised it to 55 bits, with <1% error rate.
Then I put the second Nano Fury into my computer and the first NF2 dropped to below 1.5 gh/s with an error rate of 4% and the second NF2 stayed at .5 gh/s with an error rate of 75%. I then went and bought a powered usb 2.0 hub and 2 usb fans and installed everything and plugged it into my computer. When i opened bfgminer it was the same results.

I would really like to buy 25 more of these NF2s and an eyeboot 49 port hub to mine more, but not if I can't even get 2 NF2s working together, let alone 1 NF2 up to 5 gh/s.

Can ANYONE please help me, I would really appreciate it. I am new to these forums, so I will leave my email for anyone to help me. Thanks

Hopefully vs3 chimes in here.  But it sounds like your first one is only seeing one chip and you need a different version of BFGMiner.
Try one of these.

Then when the second one goes in there are not enough amps for the two of them.
So - what USB hub are you using?  Does it have external power or does it just plug into your computer?  If it has external power what are the amps (example, 4A) listed on the power cord/converter.
