Those are some nice temps. How long has the miner been running in that screen shot and what is the ambient temp?
It's been running for exactly 3 hours and 26 minutes at this moment. Stable as a rock.
Temperatures: 36, 41, 40, 38, 40, 46, 46, 37. So an average of 40.
Greetings
Do you know how the Linux build compares to the Windows build as far as hash rate and power consumption? Great news that you have Linux working already!
If you are going to do a Pandaminer build to sell any idea what it will cost and when it will be available in the US?
haven't really tested the windows build, but i'm doing around 215h per card (zcash) at this moment.
I do have to measure power though..
So far rock solid. Pretty pleased with this to be honest.
I've been thinking about a release for European people.. Simply because i'm european as well.
Shipping to the us would become to costly. But obviously possible..
Greetings!
I would be willing to help here in the usa. I could have you ship 1 good msata build to me.
I have a cloner and could clone copies of it. You only need ship once to me in the usa.
I would charge 42- 45 for the msata and usa shipping my cost would be 35+6 for msata and shipping
https://www.amazon.com/Transcend-MSA370-mSATA-Solid-TS64GMSA370/dp/B00K67E5DA/ref=sr_1_2?and you could charge 15-25 for the software
so 60-70 shipped to the buyer in the usa included on the master.
buyer keeps the oem msata just in case.
We could do a group usa buy so the software is released to the buyers the same time.
My cloner is mechanical 2 hdd slot gear. input and output.
just let me know what msata you are mailing to me So I could buy the exact one for the clones.
@ fullzero going to delete your post but i did quote it here
It has nothing to do with the review .
and while the build you mention can work better then the pandaminer
in some cases , you fail to mention that the size difference is huge.
to deploy the panda miner would take a few wires to plug in. at the worst swap in a msata ssd with a linux build.
I can fit 2 of these in the space of you build.
I really wanted these to worth buying; but they aren't.
A 5x 1070 rig costs almost exactly the same and will produce 1900+ sol/s @ ~850 watts with stock settings.
With optimized settings you should be able to get 1900+ sol/s @ ~550 watts.
This is with equipment that is easy to resell, and is likely to hold its value well over time.
The panda miner needs to be both; way more efficient, and have a significantly lower price.
As it is now: it's just a ripoff targeting new miners.
Not even a valid comparison as not the same hardware and your PSU, CPU, SSD, OS, power riser and rig frame is free?? I keep hearing people say stuff like this without data to back it up. But this is not even a valid argument. This is like comparing building your own PC vs getting a All in one computer. Different purposes and target consumers. Can you deploy 100 rigs doing self build as fast as these plug and play?? What is your time worth. Now compare the cost of 8 x 480 plus a 1600w psu. That'd already $2k. What about CPU, MB, SSD, Ram, 8 power risers, rig frame? I have 40 rigs now and just the time to open and store all the boxes for gpu, cpu, psu, etc is a long time. I bough the 14 Nvidia from hearing people claiming all the greatness, quite frankly they sucks. Just like with rx480, a lot depends on your luck with the ram as not all of them can be boosted as high. There are market for these, let's not thread crap. The only sucky point is the crappy 45 days warranty and chinese OS but if those asic are easy to replace and upgrade, this is an ultimate solution for large farms. If I can upgrade my asic to say 490 or Fury and sell old ones to others, etc. The former factor is also very good for heat management.
$1910 ZOTAC mini 1070 x5 ($382 each from jet.com)
$39 ADATA 120gb ssd
$50 Corsair Vengeance 8GB ram
$65 ASRock H81 Pro BTC mobo
$48 Intel Celeron G1840
$4 ATX power switch
$130 EVGA GQ-1000 psu
$35 ribbon risers 5x ($7 each)
$85 spotswood frame
total: $2366
$106 more than PandaMiner with PSU ( with PandaMiner shipping cost included; this would be less)
If you started making rigs with the rx400 series using Windows; I can imagine how you might believe all rigs are difficult to setup.
When using linux you can make an exact copy of an ssd already built and simply plug it in with the other components for each rig. You can do the same with windows ( simply changing the key on the first boot, or alternatively not using a key at all for your base install and then providing one on the first boot.) This vastly improves build time.
With over 20 rigs it is easier to use a boot over lan solution. This also enables you to not need ssd's for the rigs ( though you need more ram)
I'm not sure what you mean here:
"I bough the 14 Nvidia from hearing people claiming all the greatness, quite frankly they sucks."
I'll take a guess.
My guess is you got an 1000 series card and it only got ~3 MH on ETH in windows. If this was the case: it was because you previously needed to either modify the windows driver yourself; or get a modified driver from someone else in order to have had any of the mining clients utilize the CUDA cores correctly.
This is no longer an issue. The newest drivers work with all the main mining clients. If you still have a 1000 series card I would give it a try again with the new driver.
I am not thread crapping. I am simply providing members with relevant information. It is possible that Eliovp will get these up to 2000 sol/s using 600 watts; and the price could be dropped $400. If so; they will be awesome.
As they are now; they are not.
