It's interesting but I see bitmine having alot of the same issues AMT has been having. Altho it seems less so. Refunds issues, delivery issues, all of the same. Like I said....seems like anything/anyone using A1's designs is having a ton of issues. Companies using other chips seem to be ok in terms of delivery. Something worth noting if you are looking for vendors. Just seeing a common thread here with the hardware is all. There is this race for a 28nm process, but at the same time with all the problems, it almost seems like the stable and already mature 55nm process or 40nm chips based solutions are better at this point to go with. They work they are stable....and most of all they are shipping and largely on time.
Realy
My technobit boards A1 are working non stop. And same is happening to other A1 hex8/hex4 technobit clients
So do not speak bulshit please.
You can always asume that everyone has issues but facts are different
Never tried designing a higher density packaged version of those stand-alone boards have ya?
Sure the A1 chips can run but making things run in a 1 board setting is entirely different than making a *system* of them work. ALL of the system builders are having the same issues simply because they had not planned on the chip being so off advertised spec when it was finally placed in their hands to do something with.
I don't recall the Dragon Systems having trouble?
The Technobit boards appear to work. It may be worth the effort to remove the cointcraft A1 chips from those bad AMT boards and sending them over to Technobit to get a new system. Drastic, but what other choice do we have?
a1 chips are they not made by innosilicon? bitmine uses those designs and resells to other groups (like AMT) and what appears to be a few others with similar problems. If I am in error then maybe its off. But my point is the few players out there like cointerra, hashfast and even bitmine are dealing with the same problems. Anyway it looks like its an individual design issue on a per company basis it seems. So I guess it could happen to anyone not well versed in the hardware side of things.
That said these other companies with no issues seem to be properly calibrating things to work optimally. And advertising it based on that performance and its gravy if its faster. Right now I have one hashing miner (because one is totally dead in the water now and I swapped out the sole working card to get a full working miner out of it). I am hoping I can somehow revive the other one as I know one card is beyond saving but the other ones might be possible to bring back with the right setup.
I feel the aggravation here others are feeling too, I just don't always wear it on my sleeve. I have been getting help from various community members, notably ISAWHIM, with my miner.
I wont go into more than that but I have some other things in the works that might make the dead miner come back to life. As those of you with hardware I too have a 6k brick as well. Fortunately I have another one that actually works. I count myself very lucky at this point. But would like some results too.
For my part I have been making good faith attempts to work with AMT to address my problems as I could also pass some of that knowledge over to those with similar issues.
I might do the whole technobit thing. That sounds like a viable option. Hopefully not an expensive one. Can you link it? Or PM it to me? I would be interested in going that route. Thanks for the potential solution and contribution
certain poserkos I won't name by name do nothing to contribute help its nice to have people who do contribute solutions
