Topic: [GROUP BUY CLOS & SHIPPED] - ** GIVEAWAY ** BITMAIN AntMiner 180 GH/S 300 Units - page 9. (Read 38047 times)

I own one from the first group buy and add two more fans (pinned to second blade) now I use 3 fans (one in the middle - stock) second two - one on side of each blade. 200 GHs - 42 - 43 Celsius degree. works perfect

The fan is very quiet as it runs on ~2000 RPM for me, while radiator further from fan heats a lot. 2nd FAN is definitely must have, although I still don't know how to change fan speed settings to speed it up.

Too much thermalpaste is not a good thing. If the miner runs too hot you/us may have to re-paste it.

On a different note, what do you guys think of adding a second fan to the miners? I'm guessing the main fan is one of those crazy 150 cfm server fans so adding an slightly weaker fan to help it out a bit should be OK.

2 units arrived.
while driving to UPS office I've been planning how I'll cut wires of my 2 brand new PSUs, as pci-e extenders had not arrived yet. But in the box was a nice bonus: already installed pci-e connectors!

there were a lot of bonus thermal paste all over the device

w00t w00t..

I still do not have my one but by any chance are you based in EU ?

got my tracking, 2 more days of waiting 

No, bitcoin is not banned. AFAIK a trading exchange tried to register a company and were denied and the Bank of thailand claimed bitcoin is illegal.

The BoT has no authority to make anything illegal.

Was Bitcoin not banned in Thailand?

I recieved my units this morning. ( thailand )

I wanted to ask it for a while, byt why are antminers configured to static and nobody configures them to dynamic ip (aka dhcp), if you have a lot of different miners, it's much faster and easier to configure them via your router (pfsense running in kvm on my side).

Units 1 and 2 finally arrived tonight.  They got stuck over the weekend in customs for an extra 3-day delay.

Both are up and running now at 180 GHash on the Eligius pool.  Very nice.

Only one idiosyncrasy so far.  When I changed the first unit's IP from 192.168.2.xxx to 192.168.1.xxx, I hit "Save and Apply" and the unit made the changes and "disappeared" as expected since it went to looking for another IP to respond to.  Then hooked it up to the switch/gateway at 192.168.1.1 and it was off the the races.

On unit two, I followed the same pattern of changing the IP from the local connection to the switch/gateway and when I hit "Save and Apply" it came back and stayed on 192.168.2 instead of switching to 192.168.1.    Kept trying and got nothing.   After about 10 minutes of scratching my head, I tried powering down and powering up this second miner.  That did it.  It came back up on 192.168.1.xxx and it was off to the races on unit #2.  For some reason, "Save and Apply" must have only done a "Save" on unit #2.  The "Apply" portion of the function was not working.

Did catch one card going quiet on unit two, all "xxxx xxxx xxxx..." on the asics, but a restart got it back going.

Looking good now.

Thanks Sushi for the Group Buy and some excellent setup notes.

Unit 3 was a later order and is on the way.  Power supply and ethernet cable are in place and waiting

Right, me too. So I guess they don't update the first post orders list until they get tracking numbers? Or is it that they change the status to SHIPPED as soon as they ship it. Either way I see your orders are 100 and 101 and I'm 181-183, so our orders should be in the 208 that were shipped recently.

Awesome! Can't wait haha.

I was in the first shipment and received the miners quick (4 days) without a tracking number.  Sign up for the My UPS and you'll get notified of shipments to your house (it's free).

Thanks for the reassurance. 

Tracking no is not available immediately. Your shipment shall be on its way to you already. At least that is how it was for me.

Bought in the first 250.  No tracking number, no ship?

Also need cables for the Dell Server PSU.  But can't we just use wire if we have to?

I have slight problem,

I have 2 antminer running both same power supplys

yet 1 of miner has HW increase all the time, I have swapped PSU round and still this problem exist.

is there way to find out what is the issue ?

both miners are on default clock setting

Thanks
