Topic: My first AntMiner. HONEST advice needed for S3+. Thank You (Read 632 times)
Oh....if anybody is still looking at this thread, I know what reject and HW stand for, kinda know what Getwork means, but what the heck does 'Utility' represent on the status menu?
Thanks

I know this is just a hobby, but I've been having fun. Figured my 'puter was on 24/7 anyways, and I don't game anymore, so I started doing this stuff. Started mining with a couple of the little dual miner gridseeds, then a few redfury usb, graduated to a couple of the R-box 100s, and just picked up this antminer. Still have them all running and doing some GPU x11 mining now. Those antminer numbers threw me for a loop. I couldn't see why I had so many discards, yet the pool numbers looked fine.
So....have fun and thanks for the info!

no problem at all.
Your gear is better then 99 percent = good
You are getting 493gh homeside and 488gh pool side = good
temps are under 50c = good
Only possible issue is actual power draw but with your numbers above I would guess you are pulling 380 to 420 watts which is also good.
I make that guess based on your temps and errors which are both good.
Have fun mining.

OK...great. I kinda freaked when I saw the number of discards. I bought this used and reset it to to factory, entered my info, and fired it up. Thought it was messed up when I checked the status.
Thank you very much for the reply!

Hi,
New to the world of AntMiners. I have the S3+ and am wondering if these numbers are about right. I'm not new to cryptomining but some of these numbers seem backwords. Especially the discard/accept ratio. Can someone please advise me to see if this is about right.
ASICs : all 0s (I know that's good)
Freq : 243.75 (didn't set it to max.) wiring just barely warm. Corsair CX750M P.S.
Temp : 46/47C
GH/s Avg. : 493.83 (status menu)
GH/s Pool side : 488.27
Pool : 99.87% GOOD
I believe those are OK, but the next seem screwy.
Miner Status Menu ;
Accept : 1,327
Discard : 14,789
Now that just don't seem right to me. That's less than a 10% ratio of accepted. Is this common? With my other mining equipment, if I had numbers like that, well...
Clue me in. Do these run this way?
Thank You for the input -
edit: Please don't send me a link to look at numbers. I just want to know if these (AntMiner) run this way. PS numbers.

It is perfectly fine. The developer of cgminer which is used in your miner says discards are meaningless. con kolivas or ck is the developer of cgminer
