Wouldn't it be normal to have a diode on the +5v USB line to prevent feeding current back into the hub or port?

Mining Rig Extraordinaire - the Trenton BPX6806 18-slot PCIe backplane [PICS] Dead project is dead, all hail the coming of the mighty ASIC!

I don't know should that diode be in the HUB or RPi, but the fact remains, and the easiest fix is aforementioned taping of the contact.

Ztex mentioned somewhere that +5V from usb isn't connected on the board.

Finally got my 1st BFL single! Next one should be here next week and 2 more in ~3 weeks! Pretty weak setup compared to most, but I am excited :p

2 ATI 5870s and 1 BFL single with my other computer hiding in the background and a windows A/C since it's been ~90-100 degrees here for the past month:

With the A/C thats a whole lot of electricity for the amount of bitcoin your producing.  No way that setup is cost effective.

I see a computer behind the whatever is beneath the single and 2 card rig. That is probably his room.. Need it to be comfortable for him, not the pc equipment

Yep, it's mainly for me. It is still profitable paying only .04USD/kWh (well .11, but split 3 ways :p), but this month has been ~100 degrees out almost every day and I am sweating like crazy without it on! haha

Haha. This looks similar to my setup except I've got x6500s and they're stashed even more haphazardly in a closet with a giant box fan. Whatever, it works.

Here is my final setup for my 11 BFL Singles (patiently awaiting to go home when the ASICS arrive) - They average about 9200 MH/S total

Hi,
I think I saw a few of your post where it says you are buying some SINGLES.

Anyway, I asked BFL this: Are you allowed to upgrade to ASIC when you buy your SINGLES aside from BFL itself?

I got no reply yet, but I am assuming you know the answer to this?

Nice!

Thanks a lot for that! Smiley

I was thinking 50/50

maybe they will get mad because they did not get that extra $

or it is fine as long as the product is in good condition and they get another 50% added for the upgrade.

Hi,

I am Spekulatius, director and producer of the first Bitcoin Documentary. We touch on many aspects of the Bitcoin cosmos and of course no picture of it would be complete without the miners and their rigs!
So we would like to visit some dedicated people and show their rigs in our movie.

Are there any people from around Europe here to show off their best parts on camera;)?

Greetings from Germany,
Spekulatius
