Just got mine this morning, up and running! No luck with btcdig.com, now using ozco.in.

Getting the cover on and off is a bit tricky. Don't really like the design. Is there a trick?

Running my 4-mod with a Corsair AX1200. Doesn't fit in the case. Sad

I have used a couple of bamboo skewers to help center and position the nut during reassembly.  I also think a new kitchen sponge, cut to fit and installed before removing the bolt, would work well.

ok so on the Batch#3  Power connector board:   I have 2 x 8 pin -PCI-E Connectors and 1 x 8 pin CPU connector.   What about the 12 pin plug that says "EXT P4"  ?

Or am I good for now?  What about when I pop in another 4th module?  I need a 8 pin Power CPU connector, right?

EXT P4 is the power to the fourth module.

Just rectangular thick pieces of paper or cardboard. Put them into the holes below the nuts before unscrewing bolts.

EXT P4 is the power to the fourth module.


On the PDU, There is 1 x ATX Motherboard PS;    2x   PCI-E 8 pin power connectors;   2x 8-pin CPU Power connectors;   1 x 12 pin EXT P4 Power connector.


I have 1xATX, 2X PCI-E, 1X 8-pin CPU Power   plugged in;   Whats not plugged in is 1x 8 pin CPU Power (i assume for 4th module) and 1 x 12 ping EXT P4 Power connector (for 4th module or who knows??)

For a current 3 module setup, I am assuming I am good to go, right??


---update  everything seems good to go.
Now to flash the sucker then overclock it.

Did anyone at all received a 4 module without PSU unit yet?

I did, and I can't seem to get the damn thing to power up.  I've tried two brand new PSU.  AX 850 and an OCZ 1250.  Both of them wont even power the fans.  I don't understand why, I have my buddy helping me, we have even opened up my batch 2 to compare PSU.  I can connect into the server but i can not get her to power up. 

Has anyone had the same problem?

Welp, OC'd my 4 module to 375 with my OCZ ZX1250 and got 12% HWs with no increase in hash power.  Temps remained the same.  Back to 350 and 1.7% hw errors she goes.

I put mine at 350mhz   insane setting  850w and 3 module batch #3...

it stopped hashing to slush's pool.  I tried switching to btcguild pool and it stopped hashing as well.

I am using "--avalon-auto"   for my options...should I add more?


ok everything seems good now.  i had to restart cgminer manually..

My batch #2 under --avalon-auto runs between 340-350 MHz.  It seems to like 345-347.  It hashes just fine to eligius and btc-guild.

I figured it out, i had 4xPCIe (6+2pin) cables plugged into the all 4 of the slots on the PDU.  I needed to plug in 2xPCIe (6+2pin) and 2xCPU (4+4pin) into the 4 slots.  Now she is purring like a sexy little kitten.

How you've managed to plug the keyed connectors wrong?  Shocked

Happy to report my 3 module order #90XX arrived. 

The unit is running happily at 79 gigahashes on the pool.  It was slowly overclocked to 347 Mhz over the past 5 hours, both unit and temperatures have been stable. Calculations at this speed show ROI will be met. 

Would be cool to add an extra module.  Anyone know if/when upgrade modules will be available?

Happy hashing to all Smiley
