No affiliation whatsoever. I dont get paid anything from them or any other pool. The other good pool is Prohashing.com. I will always announce when I am posting for commercial purposes that I have a stake in , and really that wont be much. Just some hardware mods I made, but I wont spam the thread. Perhaps one post like that every 3 months, and it will only be my finest mods like the triple head pci-e cable with capacitors and other unique items, and it will be clearly stated that I am selling these. Some of you are watching, and waiting to see what im really here for. Exhale. Im simply here as I feel I have great information to contribute to the community thats all. As the weeks go on youll be glad that I am here. I will be releasing information, never seen before.

Clever mining V2 is the most profitable multipool to hash right now. My personal experience: I put 1Ghs for 24 hours and got .1 BTC. Zpool is the other good one.

Do you have a personal stake in these pools, or is this just unsolicited advice?

Ya, that would work great too. The key is all the holes must be filled or it wont balance. I had loads of left over long screws as I removed my E-Plates ages ago, and just used those long screws from KFC. Its a PERFECT fit, and is very tight. Then just cut the excess with a Dremel.

So I had a few minutes and mounted one and took a few photos. My experience was very positive.
First I tried to mount the bracket using the small screws that were already in the aluminum flat area, and quickly discovered they were not long enough. The solution that I used was to take the kncminer long screws that were already in there and use those to screw through the threads. Now they are much too long, so the fitting was so tight that I didnt even need to put a nut underneath. It clamped the aluminum area to your brackets very tight and secure.
Next I cut off the excess screw with a dremel.
Then I had some loose standoffs that were just spinning under the case. An EASY fix with the strongest glue I know of : JB weld. 3700 PSI glue. Its like concrete. Just put some glue on the bottom of the broken standoffs. Its makes it much stronger than even factory. This is the bottom of the cube were no one will see it.
After that everything turned out great!!!
Even lowered the ambient temps by 10C
The only catch is most people will only have 3 long screws. I happen to have many extra. So perhaps hunt down 4 screws with same torque head and measure size and add a buck to each bracket. I would pay for them all day long.
People can also use JB weld glue to glue the bracket to the heatsink, if they dont have screws. Its that strong.

What screws to use where when mounting the 4 point brackets:
When its all mounted you should have 1 of the 3 long hold down screws leftover.
To mount the bracket to the small aluminum cooler holddown use the 2 screws that held the PC Board to the cube bottom in the front, and the 2 cube screws for top of the cube. These screws will be long enough to hold the brackets to the hold down but will not protrude out the bottom of the bracket plate. Then you can use two of your 3 long screws for the front, and my 2 provided black long screws fro the back, or if you prefer when applying to 2 cubes at a time you can use 4 long silver screws to secure the assembled bracket to PC Board on one cube and 4 black long screws on the other cube if you want all of the screws to match per cube. either way you will have 1 long screw leftover per cube. Then when putting the cube cover back on use the 2 short screws that were the alignment screws that you removed from small aluminum holddown plate so you could mount the brackets.
I did purchase (20) brackets from Mark and they look extremely well made, and very professional. Havent had a chance to mount them yet. At $10 each , its an amazing bargain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks! Please leave me some +Trust! I had cut a few of the factory holddowns like others have done, but that still left the front single mount which is probably the reason that dies 1 and 2 are the first to fail. I was looking for a better way to secure the cooler and came up with this idea and designed it to have rounded corners to allow more room for DC/DC heatsinks. Then when I went to have them made if I only had enough made for my Titans the brackets would have cost twice as much. If I made more that what I needed to make it worth the metal working shops time, the cost was 1/2 as much, so I had the extras made and figured some of you guys would want a better mount also, and wanted to keep the cost down for fellow miners.
You can also apply a addition larger heatsink between the brackets like in the photo below. This lowered the temp a additional 1.25 Degree.
Hey Maxumark!
You have a LINK for that big ass heat sink above? or whatever to dig one up via google?
Also below as to the trusted user feedback here on bitcointtalk (or for anyone else legit selling stuff on here)
I sent you a PM but to get trusted status you have to have the buyer in your trusted list on your end and them with the successful sale on their end also...so as people pay and all is well you put them on your trusted list as paying etc and then perhaps they will do the same and put you on theirs and thus you swap trust comments and viola!
I have you on my trusted list so you showed up as a trusted to make me +4 ...BUT ALAS you did not have me on your list yet..not sure if this can be undone with you adding me to such
anyway did pm on this just posting it here if you missed it (or anyone else wants to keep track of this kinda thing that is legit and sells stuff on bitcointalk)
When I get more time. Im going to post a walkthrough how to get a tighter seal on the aluminum cap between the copper heatsink and the silver cap. It includes epoxy thermal glue and a thin copper plate as most of you have noticed, the coverage is lacking. There is a cheap and easy, and very effective solution to this, and it will reduce ambient temps by 5c-10c

For me it was just send LTC to address and get access to a download link. Now I can't prove the purchase.

The ones I made have added 16v capacitors on male and female ends. This reduces the heat. The triple head helps reduce heat also. If anyone needs pics , just ask.

Brief FYI
I managed to get in a small electrical sub panel on my 100 amp electric service finally ....thus I was able to run another 220v line and because of that FINALLY
managed to put the qwberty clone Titan Bridge with a Raspbery Pi B+ 512mb on such and on a 6 port Neptune board I pulled the Beagle Bone Black off of
tossed on knc 2.00 (for now had to go to work) and dumped my 1 cube with only 1 working die on it ...and VIOLA! the creation lives
Anyway others on here have done the same..just thought it was pretty cool (and knc techs for telling me back in the day that would not work ....ass**les....)
well anyway will post some pics later...but pretty slick...now I can at least take a cube off a bit at time and re-paste test etc w/o the whole circus of 4 or 6 cubes
going down....well better late then never.....at least we now know where those data hall Jupiter 4 and 6 port boards went ...yep.....customer Neptunes (after the Jupiter data hall stuff was pulled and pre-order paid by customers Neptunes went in instead....the neppie owners really really got screwed on this timeline imho) and Titans months later picking up any old stock slack again IMHO...but it is how KNC does things.....seems likely again imho
KNC never misses a trick imho
(wondering about their court case...hmmmmmm.......man I hope they get creamed)
anyway whoo who......21mh on my 1 I tell you 1 overclocked to 325 working die on that cube....(dare to dream..need for speed does not apply here)
link to the sub panel pics for those who may need to do the same (not that hard) below. It is in the 2016 Album.

Also STILL LOOKING FOR MORE of these KNC Y Adapters NEW....if you have any laying about unused you got from KNC in the mail let me know I still need a few

Yeah I'm just lazy and the ones not KNC are dying after like 14 months having less issues with KNC ones it's not the 3rd party adapters either imho who would have thought I'd be at 17 months and $445 after elec a month yet 😀 At 733 mh and roi'd too

GenTarkin's Mod ~ Custom KNC Titan firmware v1.0.4 RELEASE NOTES - maintenance release
-Energy Saver: Fixed an issue where in some situations Energy Saver would get stuck on a stage in an infinite loop due to incorrect die counting results.
-Energy Saver: If incorrect die counting results still results in a loop for stages.. wrote a fallback to guarantee no infinite loops would occur by forcibly going to the next stage if the current stage is running for over 48hrs.
-Energy Saver: If any dies are detected being auto-bypass when user starts Energy Saver, it will show a notification that those dies need to be set to OFF(and settings applied) prior to starting Energy Saver.
In short, if you installed my previous builds and had energy saver run for over a week...then its highly possible one of the stages is stuck in an infinite loop. This release will fix that.
note: The updated download file is found in your account if you purchased the "FULL COPY"
note: Prior to upgrading, please stop Energy Saver if its running. Then install upgrade, reboot then start Energy Saver.
