Aye :pirate:

Just so folks know what kind of numbers can be grabbed, there's a 2 x Rockerminer r-boxes @ 32-37Gh/s each and 2 separate 6 x Bitmain Antminer U2 1.6-2.0 Gh/s ant farm rigs (soon to be eBayed) @ 9.6 Gh/s each, all together cranking out 75,000,000/day. No GPUs. Results vary based on the mining pool issues or lack of. It's an arms race for sure. Evil or not, every other team is going for it or they will be soon. My goal is to keep our team moving ahead. I respect the others who choose not to crunch Bitcoin Utopia, but please don't pass judgement one me too quickly. I figure the same issues came up when GPUs started crunching. As for moving up the team board, I wish everyone in the top 10, 20, 30, whatever, were all crunching the same numbers. We'd make a run for #3 at least. Don't know where this is going, but it's a rush riding the wave.

Pass judgement ? I'm waiting for my yarR-box to be delivered from Germany with extreme impatience

AMDusers will be on us soon and as you said every other team that matters are doing the same. Just now we are catching UBT but they are probably jumping on this soon enough. Timbo has already been all over the Bitcoin forum. I have no qualms about this. If they are offering the credit I will take it with a big pirates grin. SetiUSA and Sici etc have no qualms about taking what's on offer, so why should we and as I said using the ASIC's has freed my GPU's to do only the science I want without chasing credit. Win win I say

Actually, after MUCH though about this, I remembered an earlier thread, which was in one of the memorial challenges I think for Merlyn TSBT. I believe the question was what would Merlyn have done and the answer was buy more top end computers and crunch till the fuses blew or similar. On that basis hand wringers on the bitcoin forum be damned.
Remember, standing down range is inherently dangerous ... incoming, fast mover and danger close, gentlemen, watch the fireworks display. Alpha Lima Echo Zulu, engage.

Well i've got 5 stars on WProp ( actually 7 if they had more space )

and if I ever get out of this hell hole I should have a new mobo and cpu waiting to finally bring Loki into the 21st century. I have plans for more shelves in the shed over xmas when I am off and of course I guess I will need something to put on those shelves. Think roof vents in the tech shed are now a must as well.

And I'm not an IT person so I really have no excuses

Loki has now been upgraded and is now Loki2 with a shiny Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E7400 @ 2.80GHz [Family 6 Model 23 Stepping 10] and running the GTX660 TI under Ubuntu 14. Not sure if the original Loki will be retired or re-tasked to run my unwilling to run 7970 under Linux. Think that could be a day or 2 of head scratching. AMD and Linux have never been a happy hunting ground pour moi and not sure if the board is defective or the memory has gone bad. 1 memory slot has been DOE for quite a while now, not sure if the other has followed it into the electronic afterlife. Might be an Ebay purchase to resurrect ....

Updated fleet info above...

Alez · Post by **Alez** » Thu Jan 08, 2015 3:05 am

Loki is dead. Mobo seems to have multiple niggling failures. An Asus striker board with 3 pcie slots winging it's way towards me for the resurrection. Loki will ride again as a fleet without a Loki is like a dog without a bone

In the mean time Loki 2 will have to continue to fly the flag for the brand.
Should I now hex myself and state that I have managed to destroy ever single Gigabyte or MSI board I have owned, but never an Asus. I've also managed to kill every CiT PSu I've deployed but not a single corsair.

Do the CiT PSUs have a single 12v rail? (You pointed that issue out to me a while back)

Alez · Post by **Alez** » Thu Jan 08, 2015 1:26 pm

Some do, some are twin rail. They are just not suitable for crunching, too cheap and the output rating on them seems to be absolute short term maximum rating rather than constant supply. I guess they are just a case of you get what you pay for.

another yarr box2 added to the fleet after being found behind the sofa

Loki is now a Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E7400 @ 2.80GHz in an Asus striker mobo with a HD6770 which so far refuses to be recognised by Boinc under Linux.If I manage to get the drivers to function it will also have a Gigabyte 7970 provided it is not dead to crunching. Why is AMD / Linux such a PITA ?

Alez · Post by **Alez** » Tue Jan 13, 2015 12:29 pm

The battle to resurrect Loki continues. Board is now refusing to post. Think it's bad, though with a search seems that Asus striker extreme boards are notorious for failing to boot out of Bios. Guess I should have done a bit more research before buying.

Post by **scole of TSBT** » Tue Jan 13, 2015 1:10 pm

Does it have an IGPU? If so, have you tried it without PCIe GPUs installed?

Alez · Post by **Alez** » Tue Jan 13, 2015 4:48 pm

nope, quite a few gaming ASUS boards have no inbuilt graphics, I have 3 of them like this. It has an LCD display for the POST error message, unfortunately it's bust. The Board will boot every now and then and will fire up the GPU, but only gets as far as the ASUS splash screen and hangs on press DEL to enter BIOS. Have some more tests to run tonight but suspect it's DOA. Have tested the GPU's ( a 6770, 7970 and gt410 ) the PSU and the IDE drive with Loki's old motherboard and they work. I did get it to work for a day or so but it kept randomly freezing or shuting down and I would have to leave the power off for 10 mins or so then reboot. Now it doesn't boot.

Alez · Post by **Alez** » Thu Jan 15, 2015 2:55 am

Going to have to send the striker back ( provided the seller is honorable ). Post's 5% of the time. Back on the hunt for a decent board to resurrect Loki. Might be an new AMD combo. Loki2 continues to fly the flag for Linux in a workman like fashion.

Alez · Post by **Alez** » Wed Jan 21, 2015 2:34 am

So the new addition has been added to the list. Beagle ( named after the Mars lander that actually made it there, then forgot to phone home ) AMD FX(tm)-6300 Six-Core Processor [Family 21 Model 2 Stepping 0] on win 7 with a HD6770 as the gygabyte HD 7970 has been declared dead pending major and probably pointless surgery.
Loki is back up and running with a GT410 until I decide what to do with a dying Mobo that refuses to finally expire. I feel sorry for the wee fellow and just keep resurrecting him. Maybe time he gets a new Mobo combo to carry his name on proudly.

Alez · Post by **Alez** » Tue Feb 03, 2015 1:19 am

The update is that the striker board is back. Hopefully issues down to a knackered CPU heatsink. Testing is in progress. Should it be good then it will need an nVidea or 2 to fill the slots. The GHz edition 7970 appears to have been resurrected and is currently in Beagle. it would appear that another 100 GHs R box appeared from behind the sofa. I have another 7970 which now needs a home ( probabily Caro with the GTX650 going to Loki ) so will have to do some swapping around and on order is a HP ProLiant Server DL360 G5 | 2 x Quad Core Xeon E5450 3.0Ghz 16GB RAM. Hopefully here in the next day or so.

I've temporarily added an 8 core and 12 core system, but now have to find a perm home for them. Wife won't let them in. Currently in spare office at work. Hope they let me keep them.

Alez · Post by **Alez** » Tue Feb 03, 2015 3:38 am

You need a shed ( wives not allowed ) for ' storing ' stuff, (my wife ventures into the shed to warm her hands whilst dealing with the horses but swears she keeps her eyes shut ). Think I've managed to snag a cheap system to give Anguillan Pirates a permanent presences on boinc.

Alez · Post by **Alez** » Wed Feb 04, 2015 12:50 am

Another 7970 added , this one in Chronos. The 6970 from there now in Aroc and so I have a 7790 looking for a home. The striker board still gives issues, final decision to be made when I get some new SATA drives and a PSU delivered.
A Fujitsu ESPRIMO E5730 on it's way to be the home port of Anguillan Pirates as having admin for 2 teams on the same computer is ' challenging ' and hopefully my HP ProLiant Server DL360 G5 | 2 x Quad Core Xeon E5450 3.0Ghz 16GB RAM 2 x 36GB will be here tomorrow. Just need to come up with a name for it. Answers on a postcard or a post will be accepted. Needs to be cool and either Norse / Greek mythology based or Space probe / mission / system based or just really cool.

I'm going to suggest 'Dave' everyone knows a Dave, a great guy, dependable and entertaining, always has a funny story to tell.

If that doesn't float your boat then my second suggestion is 'BifrÃ¶st' which i'm sure you all know is the burning rainbow bridge between our world and Asgard, the realm of the gods. Its also the name of my hifi dac and it sounds cool

What do I win

Alez · Post by **Alez** » Mon Feb 09, 2015 8:43 am

The HP ProLiant Server DL360 G5 finally turned up and my IT guy ( the boy ) changed all the thermal paste etc and got it up and running before I even knew it had arrived ( not that I can do much from a few hundred miles away. ) I got no say in the naming. It's called Saturn-V as both he and the wife agreed that when he first fired it up and all the fans went to 100% it sounded like it was about to attempt orbit of perhaps the moon. The one thing I never counted on when I grabbed it was the sheer size of the thing. Apparently you could stick a few legs on it and call it a coffee table. No idea where I am going to put it in the tech shed but will have to think of something as I believe it's currently occupying most of the dining room table

Couldn't stand it. Sprung for a RK3288 1.8Ghz quad core android tv box. Only had a few Ebola WUs finish so far, but it seems to perform even better than the 2.0 Ghz S802, which performs better than the RK3188s and Odroid U2. It's all relative though. Same $/credits. It performs twice as fast as an RK3188, but cost twice as much. Only 1 unit to manage instead of 2 though.

Alez · Post by **Alez** » Sat Feb 28, 2015 1:58 am

Never have to manage my rk3188's though, unsung hero's of boinc. Need to uodate the fleet status as almost finished the spring cleaning. Job for tomorrow after I take Caro apart again and find out what went bang

Post by **scole of TSBT** » Sat Feb 28, 2015 2:12 am

I'm not knockin' the 3188s. I have 3 of them. But real estate is an issue for me, so for the same crunching/$ I try to get the most crunching per sq foot (or 1/2 foot). Now for the "Never have to manage...", I'd like your son's opinion about that

Are they wired or wireless? All mine are wired and have been stable.

Wired through USB - RJ45 converters. The Wifi on them is $hite. Rip off the cases and install them in a toast rack, it's the technological breakthrough they require

Windows is completely cratered on Caro , again. Looks like another Linux candidate. I am so sick of microsoft at the moment. Seems every update they push breaks something

Alez · Post by **Alez** » Mon Jun 01, 2015 3:14 pm

Server here, better get it up and running.

Heimdal, the xw6600 xeon appears to have all it's usb ports dead thanks to the exploding BFL miner power brick. Windows does recognise that something is plugged into the port but then it just fails to instal any drivers and spits out an error code 43, which is about as useful as a chocolate ashtray Also looks like the android tablet attached to Heimdal is now dead too.
How much damage can one crappy power brick cause?
Might be another core2duo as well on linux as a way to spread the miners across more systems or I might try a Rbox u3 as they can't be run with any other type of miner.

Post by **scole of TSBT** » Mon Jun 01, 2015 3:42 pm

Was the damage caused by debris or electrical in nature? If electrical, would surge protectors prevent damage?

Alez · Post by **Alez** » Mon Jun 01, 2015 6:13 pm

All electrical. Explanation in this post http://www.dunadd.co.uk/seti/forum/view ... 113&t=2640 but basically they use the wrong type of power brick for europe and when it failed it earthed through the connected usb cable and seems to have damaged everything attached to Heimdal by USB. Going to get a separate usb card and see if I can get that to work. It's a good job I tend to hoard stuff as I am currently using a ps2 mouse and keyboard.

Well next week is the start of the annual 2 week torture test so I will be unavailable but .... if it arrives in time or just after I should be the proud owner of a L 6540, 24 thread server to try and reign in scole's cpu excesses. Well that's the theory anyway. Update will follow
