Yeah I know it's cutting it close but that's how I roll at times. These PSU's have been pretty solid for me and I keep them fairly cool. Plus the cord is cool as well, which means a grip!

I'll toss my kill-a-watt meter on it later and get some readings posted.

DHL delivered today and had them hashing in 10 minutes, thanks to the setup guide's that have been provided Doge and the other guy.


Right? I thought with the SPI connections it would be finnicky but this is hands down the fastest miner I've ever set up.

+1


Just chained my 3rd AM-V1 together! ALL 3 running off a single 1000 Watt PSU too!

Thanks for the sweet equipment BTC Garden.

Anyone know if the older boards can be retrofitted with the PCI-E headers? That would make my day! hehe

You may want to change 1 unit over to a different power supply.  PSU really don't like being very close to their maximum power output.

I agree - that's cutting it close. I have 2 running off a 750 and I even think that's cutting it close. (It's not, 720W rated continuous 12v output PSU is only drawing 699 from the wall including RPI)

Also worth noting - I swapped out the fans with nice 140mm silent case fans. (Thanks for the advice bobsag et. al.) Not only is the damn thing completely silent now, I cut power consumption by 20w (across 2 units, 4 boards).

methinks The installed JSY fans seem to be power hogs.

Those JSY fans are rated at .45A, the installed fans rated at .3, a difference of .15a
.15*4=.6A total savings
.6*12v=7.2W theoretical savings. Where'd the other 12.8 watts come from? Maybe - maybe I brought the PSU into a higher efficiency area of it's output curve but I bet those fans are hogs. I'll hook one up to a bench tomorrow and see what it really draws. YMMV.

Just got my 3rd AM-V1...

Quick question...

Does the NEW board version require just a single PCI-E connection?

If so, BRAVO ZULU guys!


Edit: Just saw pics from another member and answered my own question. I've missed a couple pages of reading here recently it seems  Tongue

coolermaster jetflo are superb

I was going to get the ones with the rubber mounts (might be one in the same) because I'm definitely getting harmonic vibration from the four fans. Living in an NYC apartment these things are behind my tv in the living room so low noise is a priority.

Antec Tri-Cools work very well as well

Does anyone know the CFM of the fans? I'd like to swap them with quieter ones if I can find quieter ones with the same airflow

Looks like the new Asicminer chips aren't all that it was cracked up to be.

The chips are decent for the node they are made on, it's just that they came to market a bit late so they end up competing with their "old" 40nm chip vs new 28nm designs hitting the market.

Has anyone been able to SSH into the pi to change the settings of cgminer manually?  I'm looking to add --btc-address  to get my miner to solo mine.  However, when I ssh into the pi, and goto the cgminer file in the 'Garden' directory, it is all strange text like it is being converted wrong.

Where is the simply config file that the webgui edits?

Hi
I understand no more 2 blades.

1 = 4 blades = 520$  +  shipping 75$ (91.67$ EU/AUS)
2 = 8 blades  = 1020$  + shipping 125$ (158.33$ EU/AUS)

After my tests I ll  buy another set for 520+91.67= 611.67$

Just waiting for the tracking #  Grin order 42
