Thanks Phil. PM sent.  Once again, you are the best

You are lucky I just got a 1200 watt quark delivered on Saturday.
So I can send you just what you need. Shoot me a pm

So, I am most of the way through my 2nd mining rig build but when I popped open my power supply to hook up the cables, I realized that I will yet again be short on the molex cables    This happened on my first build since my x99 mobo required a molex for added PCIe power, putting me one 2-molex connector cable short. Luckily, Phil came to the rescue as he had an extra one from the same 1000W Rosewill Quark series Plat PSU.

This time around, I went with the Quark 1200W since I want to power 6 GPUs off an ASRock H81 Pro BTC Mobo.  I also thought i read that this PSU had more molex connectors but alas, it only has 4 on 2 cables     Assuming this Mobo will also require extra molex power for more than 2 GPUs, this means I will only be able to hook up 2 of the 5 GPUs I currently have until I am able to secure 2 more 2-molex cables.  The bad thing is, it seems that since this is a full modular PSU, only cables from this brand and series will work with this PSU, and I cannot find them available anywhere online, including at the Rosewill store.

So, I would like to ask if anyone might have 1 or 2 extra of these laying around they would be willing to part with. I will of course be happy to pay a fair price in BTC.  Also, if anyone knows where these might be available online, I would appreciate the tip.  Thanks!

I switch between ETH and ZCASH pools with Ethman.exe easily...... copy the right config.txt and epool.txt to all rigs with a single click. And reboot / restart all rigs also with a few clicks. How easy is that..... saved me setting up a proxy server and loose control the rig names etc.

AWESOME

thank you!!

I agree!  This management dashboard is a great overview of the critical information about your rigs at a glance.  Thanks for bringing this up again citronick! I keep this running 24/7!

In your local network, where you rigs are connected, at your management server, fire up ethman.exe and you see the dashboard.

If you install Teamviewer on this PC, you can access it wherever you are via your Android. You need to install TV for Android.

You can access the browser version of the running Ethman.exe because its has a simple webserver running when Ethman.exe is running.

Just type the management PC's IP address 192.168.xxx.xxx:8000 (Ethman.exe must be ruuning on this PC), on your tablet's browser - I am assuming you Android is connected to the wifi-router, where your rigs are located.

The hidden gem of Claymore's miners IMHO is Ethman.exe.

Citronick, just a quick question in case you can advice me:
I would like to watch Ethman with  my android tablet when I'm in the same place as the rigs. So the tablet would be on the same private network than rigs (wifi for tablet and ethernet for rigs but same router).
How would be the easyest way to do it ? without creating a security risk like the port routing.
Since it'sonly local network, I think it can be simple, but I'm not used enough to it yet, so I would be glad to get some advice.
(sorry for bad translation)

for standard 7 cards rig, a good ole H81 Pro BTC mobo with 6 slots and add a 3-1 PCI card, will cost less than Z97 7-slotter ... IMHO.

Thanks guys. Will tumble the numbers....but I'm guessing the 6 gpu rig will have a lower cost per watts used to for each hash.

The A7s arriving next week hopefully all can be online before Christmas - looking forward to the R4 review.

Fuck the s9 ------- The item needs to be 10 or more and buy a few spare controllers  10 s9s = 30 boards of which you will lose 3 to 6 of them
and you lose at least 1 controller.  That is about a 10-15% loss  so buying 10 means you get 8 or 9.
 At 59 years young  climbing into a loft 3 to 5 times a week does not cut it for me.



But I have hope for the r4  I will review it.
I will review the avalon 721.

Both are due this week.

Hi Phil - I know its a bit off topic in our GPU thread, can you post your R4 review when you get it.  That rotary fan design is suppose to be very good - I have seen it before in a server build. My Juvia farm - A7s are also arriving next week shipped direct to my ISP... incidentally I got email from Bitmain that their next S9 sale is coming soon.

I'd love to have one too!

I ordered one.
The goal is to have all biostar z170 mobos  with all msi rx 470's

I will be listing some mobos and some cards later in the week.
I also am getting my two avalon 721's tomorrow and an antminer r4 maybe on fri.

I need to move and switch a  lot of gear around. Over the next 3-5 days.

It is super easy to find:

That one is the most used in our community to build 7x GPUs

MSI Gaming Z97 GAMING 5 LGA 1150 Intel Z97

I have plenty of Hitman codes, sending you one via PM.

Seven card boards can be hard to come by.  This one does six, and is quite popular. You will need risers.

I'm enjoying this thread and thinking about doing a 7 GPU build with the 470 4GB.

1 What's the best 7 slot MOBO for doing that?

2.  Since I might ship it to Cryptoboreas where i have my BTC rigs located, i need an enclosed case with good fans. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

If anyone has a Hitman or Civilization VI code they want to sell, PM me.  My son would be most appreciative These games have been bundled with 470s and 480s recently. I'm not buying hardware A.T.M.  Waiting to see what happens with the 490s.
