Another improvement in my cooling shelf:

I've cut a 80mm opening in a 100mm PVC pipe and I use it as a fan duct:



I'll adjust/finalize it when I take averything apart when I replace the stock heatsinks with the new one I posted earlier.

i still have to find someone who will drill/thread them properly as I don't have the equipment to do it.
It looks like you're having lots of fun with those compacs zOU  Grin

I found a freakin block with a Compac on Bitminter --   Shocked

Nice, now don't you wish you were mining solo :p

I do- I will post pic tomorrow

Wow, would love to see a pict showing a compac pulled a 158G share, that's impressive.

But if you were solo mining you would not have found the same block, work you do on one pool has no relation to work you would do at another or solo.

Seems working for me...  No Block yet.

If I have to buy a few multimeters and solder them directly I will!  Grin

I hope you cool it well at this speed Smiley

Using a 12volt 40mm fan sitting on top of the heatsink running on 5v.  Also have a digital thermometer  I picked up on EBay that runs on 5v and it is reporting the heatsink is at 43C-44C.

There is no pot position to achieve those speeds. He's hacked the buck to get higher voltages.

What's 'hacked the buck'? Please excuse my lack of knowledge Embarrassed.

I've heard this term a few times recently and dont know what it is....

Here are a couple of runs on 2 different Compacs - both were modded but the heatsinks are stock- Smiley - A fan is all that is needed, they are built like tanks





Hey Kilo nice work Grin.

Can you please tell me roughly what the pot position is to achieve those speeds?

I'm more curious about the difficulty setting of 19.  What's up with that?  I use a value 1000 with my two (total of 600 WU/min).

.earl

ckpool's auto adjusts the difficulty depending on your equipment mining speed / number of shares so in this case its adjusted to 19 diff.

You can set a suggested starting diff in cgminer by using --suggest-diff 30 which is what I use for my stick. This doesn't work on all pools though.
