In case someone is asking what to buy to monitor cgminer without having to use a big monitor. Here my little monitor i use for the raspberry pi. I like its so small and can be taken with you easily...

Its a sweet little thing but its not made for showing a full screen though so i have to raise the size of the letters a bit to see enough. Thats a downside. But i can connect it directly to the rpi (with a cinch-connector in between), it gets powered from the atx psu i power the bitburner with and its really cheap with 17€ including shipping.

Im not sure if it can be bought outside of germany. 3.5" Auto Monitor

Burnin, will you please answer my question? I sent you an email, and asked you here, but you didnt address the issue.



I have ordered more then 30 boards, and paid more than 3000 euros for them. How much money will I receive if I decide to cancel my order?

@burnin what would you reccomend as an on the cheap but quality psu sub 75$ pref?

Edit forgot to add only plan on running a single btb XX at 431/450

I’m not burnin, but Xbox 360 PSUs works very well for 1-2 boards.

All you have to do is cut the cord, wire +5V SB and PWR_ENABLE together for "always on" mode and use the three yellow (+12V) and three black (GND) cables to power your boards.

I ran 2x20 an 1x10 with an old Xbox 360 PSU (Xeon/Zephyr version with 203W) just fine, but only up to 400 Mhz.

The nice thing about this is that you can find old 360 PSUs on ebay for less than $10 and they deliver very clean power.

@burnin

Can I send in chips that have been already mounted on a PCB (Avalon hashunits) ?
Can you take them off and use them in a XX board ?

Would this PSU be able to power a single bitburner XX after I OC it to 450?

Johnnyguru and HardOCP are some great sources to read regarding equipment testing and durability. I personally wouldn't touch that pus

I wouldn't touch that psu either.

@AMD Too bad your order is still hanging in customs, but you should get it soon.

Yeah I got an email from UPS Saturday and I had to talk to a customs broker. It was pretty painless they wanted a tax ID number probably because of the value of my shipment being a bigger order. I explained I didn't have a company and they were fine with that and it looks like it will be delivered today. Which means I'm blowing off my classes today awaiting delivery.....its not like they cover anything important typically the first day of class anyways....LOL

I always give a test on a pre-requisite, algebra, my first day of class.

He he, what year are you in?  The first day of every year on my undergrad had major induction classes for what was happening through the whole year (as well as the customary BCS seminars trying to get you to sign up for student rates [not that I did of course .. cough cough {slowly makes sure e-mail address is hidden leading to incriminating evidence, ha ha}]).

Are you saying that Customs has not released them?  It looks like they have on the tracking page: http://i.imgur.com/sRoFrnp.png
Yes, i will pick them up tomorrow, once i verified that the chips are functional i will send out a assembled board asap.

Received?  Tracking page shows no updates.

One bitburner overclocked wont consume more than 100w of energy. The question you have to ask yourself is it better to invest in a quality brand psu that has less chance of damaging the board or costing you more money in down time. I myself prefer psu's from Seasonic, Corsair, XFX and a few others. Seasonic is a quality company that designs great psu's and other companies like XFX and even Corsair use their designs.

Johnnyguru and HardOCP are some great sources to read regarding equipment testing and durability. I personally wouldn't touch that pus

For my setups that I ordered in Batch 2, I'll be powering them with 3 of the XFX 1250w Blacks which will have plenty of overhead in terms of power.

For people running serious numbers of boards this is true, I would def. go with a quality name and gold/platinum psu. But for people with fewer boards I don't think it will prove to be cost effective unless they can get them cheap for whatever reason. At least where I am the difference in price is significant enough for low watt PSUs to matter. Less so at 800W+

Any word on Batch 2 chips? Has Zefir shipped?

Just be patient. Zefir received them on friday. Give it at least 1-3 days to sort things out and to package the chips. Remember that not all the chips are going to burning and it will take some time to count and pack them.

so are batches starting to come through now?

better to chk the thread of whatever group buy you joined..

I think one bitburner XX with 20 chips is something around 100W, so yes this one is more then sufficient.

Edit: here is accurate power consumption:
Air:
431 - 54, 48, 1.30V, 87W, stable
450 - 56, 48, 1.30V, 90W, HW Errors
450 - 57, 52, 1.34V, 94W, slightly increased error rate compared to what i normally call "stable" but close enough

Water:
450 - 54, 32, 1.34V, 94W, slightly less hw errors then with air
