Hiya

Thanks!

How do you autotune? What does it do exactly? What speed is it working at?

AutoTune loads bfl firmware from the fastest downwards, until your unit stops throttling.

go here:

and get this:

and this:

Then use EasyMiner, run AutoTune, and select the AutoTune package file when prompted.

I autotuned mine with Easyminer and that was it. I use CGMiner which is the best mining software IMHO.

I got mine, plugged it in, and it was throttling even with the stock 832 firmware. I had to bump it down to the 816 firmware so it wouldn't throttle.

Then I took it apart, repasted the chips with some CM stuff (they used WAY too much paste), directed the fan down instead of up, attatched a small 80mm CPU fan from and old AMD heatsink, and now I run it outside of it's case and laying on it's side. The Easyminer autotune flashed it with the 880 firmware, which is what I'm running now. I could prolly switch to the 896 since I added the extra fan on the bottom, but I havn't done it yet.

Using CGMiner, and it's been great.

Hi

Anyone mining with a BFL single out there. Got any tips on setting one up. Did you flash yours when you first received it? Do you recommend flashing it? Which firmware is the best to use? Which mining software? How do you go about setting it up?? Huh

I'm eager to learn, thanks in advance! Grin
