Hi OC,

Don't get me wrong dude, you do a sterling job my man, but I see other GB's doing these for BTC0.4 - I know they're not UK ones & we have to pay ridiculous taxes etc, etc - but double the price seems a bit tough to swallow eh? Will the price be changing shortly to reflect this?

Peace & kudos  Grin

Hey mate,

Any cubes in stock now?

Sorry seemed to have missed this. No - I don't have any in stock this second, but would expect them in at the end of this week coming, if you place your order today.

Got my Cube rewired last week - it's now running on the OCZ 600W PSU using both 12V rails (using a 8-pin ATX to 6-pin PCI-E).  It's got a 6 day uptime at just a shade over 38GH.  Working perfectly.

Good to hear! Smiley

The CX750 does seem to keep getting mentioned as failing to work properly with the cube, I'm not sure why though, you'd think it would work fine...

I think it's the most easily-available high-spec PSU in the UK which may be why there are so many reports. You don't hear the negative ones. As I said, I've tried swapping the PSUs over between my cubes, but it's still the same cube that has the problems. Sill, it's called overclocking -- it's not guaranteed to work in all cases I guess. Anyway, since the 4 dud chips came back online, the hashrate is not far off what it was like in high clock mode when they were broken.

ALSO: I may be stupid but I just worked out that you can slot the cases together! That is so awesome. I want to buy another 50 now and build bizarre lego-like mining structures out of them! (If only I could afford it... Wink)

I love that you can easily stack them together also

my cubes ran just fine on a CX750 on low... but as soon as I put them into High, they'd run at like 55GH/s for about 30 seconds and then reboot into Low... Really weird.

There's something with these Cubes and the CX750.  Lots of folks have them working perfectly with this PSU, and others like me can't get the Cube to work for shit with the CX750.  It's frustrating.

My Cube ran perfectly at High for a week on the OCZ 600W PSU, but it locks up on High.  Works OK on Low, though.  I need to rewire a bit to get the Cube running off both 12V rails on the OCZ.

Can't say I'm very pleased with the Cube - it's a fussy fecker.  Not like the old Blades which have been rock solid.

crhys, It'll be the PSU. 

I had the same problem, the Cube basically killed the PSU I was using (an old Dell PSU with 18A per rail).  Everything ran fine initially, but the Cube started to fail in the same manner you're describing, until it stopped working totally. 

Changed the PSU and everything started working again perfectly.  Now running off a PSU with dual 25A rails.


Thanks for the info HellDriverUK, I am running the two cubes on a Corsair CX750, probably just on the edge of what's possible with that PSU.

Have heard that the CX750 can run well with 2 psu running 3 cubes (1.5 cubes each), will configure it like this soon.

I have one cube that won't go into high clock mode for an extended period. (This is the one which had a half-dead card initially that magically started working after some time)

If I put it into high clock mode, it works for a short time and then dies (all rows X X X X X X X X)

The web interface still works, but rebooting via that doesn't have any effect, even after putting it back into low clock mode. I have to power-cycle it manually.

I have another cube that has been working fine in high clock mode. They're in the same physical area so temps will be the same. They also both use identical corsair 750w PSUs. I've swapped the PSUs over, and I still see the same results.

Just unlucky?
