Also, mostly because I can, I just rolled all nine sticks up to around 665mV and 225MHz (12.375GH) for about 111GH total (1.036 AM Blade backplanes) and since it's fairly monolithic at this point I'm gonna take it home and run it in the AC until Monday morning. I've also got a bit better fan on it (than the one stolen out of an old AM Cube).
And may I say, when cgminer fires up and enumerates all them sticks in order, one at a time, and then BAM starts mining on all of them simultaneously, the lights are oh so pretty. Makes me wish I had a longer hub so I could run all 11 functional sticks together and get slightly more sex appeal out of it. In any case it's really cool to know that I'm the only guy in the world that's actually seen what I'm looking at right now. Another month or six weeks and some of y'all can have the same experience but right now it's MINE ALL MINE and I'm gonna relish it.
Anyway, it's running on the Pi (Minera 5 or something) and the pools are all set up so it should auto-start and default to the 1BURGER if the Pi trips out and restarts.
Additionally, it's past Friday. We've heard from the overdue-invoice guys that "the check is in the mail" but I haven't seen it yet. This means I need to investigate the path of short-term loans to field the rest of the chip order that I wanted to have paid for TWO WEEKS AGO. Looks like right now I am 10BTC short. Anyone interested in helping meet that need on a one- to two-week payback period, PM and we can get this taken care of.

Not really. Mine are all lined up so the lights play off adjacent sticks and heatsinks all in a row. That is a pretty fancy rig you got there though.

Sweet!! So is that a calibrated piece of dimensional spruce? LOL Looks alot like our test bench. Don't see a trimmer pot for Vcore, course then my eye sight ain't so good. Doing that in S/W? Think I'd send one on over to Germany, and pass the addiction on into Europe. Can't wait to see what ya' do with the 18 chip version. Still in for 2 of the sticks when you get a round-2-it. the bottom corner appears to have a pot like mine did: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1086011.msg11730704#msg11730704Sweet! Thanks for the pic.  |

>100GH out of some usb sticks, I love it! For fun I have 4 stick miners, but only 8GH total. I see an upgrade in my future... |

Yeah one of these would do 8GH just about off stock USB power. I'm digging it so far. Hopefully this coming week I can find some time to start 18-board testing, but I have a lot of manufacturing to do as well.

Old Style Legacy Plug & Play BBS System. Get it from www.synchro.net. Updated 1/1/2021. It also works with Windows 10 and likely 11 and allows 16 bit DOS game doors on the same Win 10 Machine in Multi-Node! Five Minute Install! Look it over it uninstalls just as fast, if you simply want to look it over. Freeware! Full BBS System! It is a frigging hoot!:) |

Well folks, looks like the need is met. I'm waiting to hear back from Bitmain for a last confirmation before sending coin across to finalize the sale. Hopefully that gets done in the next day. Monday I'll be shipping out the eight final-prototype sticks to the test guys, and once most of them have gotten a chance to play with 'em and post opinions we'll get to work.
But right now it's bedtime. Thanks everyone.

Enjoy the blinky lights, even with your eyes closed! Let me know when and where to order one. I really like my SP20, but it's got all the sex appeal of a very long toaster. |

Hey watch it.....I don't make 'eye contact' with my KNC Titan(s) in the Basement.......they will take ANY opportunity to to try and 'brick' themselves' into a Toaster or the sweet release of 'doorstop/spaceheaters'........so I envy you (hope your Sp20 does not get negative vibes off of you...it is bad...the Titan(s) can sense my fear........help me!)  |
