wtf is with people buying Avalon shit after what Yifu has done?


Strictly business, its all about GH/s, price and delivery time.

So why not  Huh

Yup, buying ASIC miners is like betting on horses. No matter how much research you do, your gunna win some and lose some...

well most likely they sold these at a loss/no profit so you could call it revenge I guess?


definitely a better PSU to go past 375mhz.

They barely pull 600w at the wall so there should be plenty of headroom with the psu that is already inside in them.

Actually yeah I guess they have an 850w PSU so the limiting factor will probably be the boards. Will wait to see what the experts figure out Tongue

Pretty pristine condition for "dust busters"!

There is no such thing as Yifu selling used Avalon Asic Miners at a loss.

Yifu mined back the cost of the units and a shit load more BTC before these dust busters found there way on Tradehill.

How can we overclock these? They can go to 450mhz right? Right now I have two running at 60-62Gh at 375mhz. I would love to see them up to 75-80Gh.

These chips are already overlocked. The batch 1-3 Avalon's came with factory clock of 282mhz I believe. I was able to overclock my Batch #2's to 355mhz. These mini's are running at 375mhz. Yufi said 475mhz was the chip's limit but you might need a better board and definitely a better PSU to go past 375mhz.

My mini's were delivered to US 6 days after close of auction and are running at around 58GH, pulling a little less than 1800w, and are just as loud as my overclocked batch #2's.  A+ will definitely try their next auction.

That case is pretty thick aluminum too. Just the top plate you could whack someone pretty good with.

As an engineer, I can confirm that is the primary criteria for material selection on any project.

Ok,

So i opened the box today and they are missing the power cables, and the little wifi aerial thingy that sticks out the back end of the rig. Need to pop out now and see if i can pick a cable up quickly to make sure the unit itself actually works.

I only bought two and the other i shipped out ASAP to a friend so can't confirm if this is the case for everyone or not. It is possible that the cables and wifi aerials were in the second box? You don't actually need the wifi aerial, it should still be able to pick up signal...there is just a little gold screw where you could fix one onto the rig.

Other people confirm if these things are missing as you get yours in too please... WIFI AERIAL + POWER CABLE


Dimensions of box
20 in x 14 in x 17 in

Actual weight of 1 box
11.2 kg

Dimensions of rig
16 x 9 x 6

Packaging was good with double ply boxes used. and lots of padding. The units themselves are black and have an industrial look and feel. A lot heavier than the Butterfly lab 60 gh units. I hear these Avalon ones can be overclocked to 85 gh/s so i am going to do that tonight.
No instructions or manual included in the box....

Instructions to use:

Connect your laptop to the eithernet port of the Avalon
Setup your laptop IP address 192.168.0.101
Open http://192.168.0.100
Make sure WR703N can access Internet, Configure WiFi: Network -> WIFI -> Scan(select your WIFI network) -> Join Network -> WPA passphrase -> Submit -> Save & Apply for connect to WIFI Internet
setup your mining worker: Status -> Cgminer Configuration.
Restart the cgminer service: System -> Startup,
Check your avalon status: Status -> Cgminer Status
Setup password/using ssh

Is the weight on this post corrrect?Huh It's like 25 lbs.  Are they made from iron?

Most of the weight is due to the heatsinks.

Got two of them and have to say they are fucking loud.

People please is there any option to reduce the fan noise ?
This really drives me horrible crazy.
--avalon-fan 20 for example does not work. the fan is at min around 2560RPM and still loud as shit. Temps are inside 46 - 49 °C Radius.

regards


You must have fans from the B1 avy's! Smiley

My mini's fan is the same that is in the my B2 avy which is more quiet.

called in some favors and got my hands on 5 units at 2,36 btc + vat.

PSU: Enermax 850w 80+gold modular.

Controller board and power distribution boards seems to be the same/very similar to my batch 3, you could potentially Frankenstein 2 of these into a 4 module one if you wanted to for some reason.
