Are you guessing chooka?  or has DM let the details slip?

OK, since you asked ...  :BigGrin

2 x these:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=677056.0

"El Diablo" will have:
3 x Rockminer New R-Box @ ~110 GH/s each
1 x Rockminer R4 @ ~ 500 GH/s
2 x Rockminer Rocket RK @ ~480 GH/s each
13 x Gecko Science @ ~1.6 GH/s each

4 x Raspberry Pi crunching Collatz
1 x Server i7 980 (w/ 2 x EVGA GTX 970)

I do not know if I will restart the U3's. Testing their wattage at the wall I found they waste (as heat) a lot of electricity converting 110V to 5V/7.5A.

The new rack arrives today (some assembly required  :wink ) and the Rockets arrive the middle of next week. Cabling is a nightmare but I will take my time and try to make it tidy. Power consumption for El Diablo will be ~ 3,500W at the wall.  :holy-moly but I can shut down 2 other servers (~ 2,000 W) so the net is not as bad as one might think. WARNING: When I fire it up the lights may dim on the West coast of California.  :jester:

I am having fun ....  :golf

Oh my glory!!!    :bravo on your excess,  DM  :worship   I'm not sure whether to be horrified or jealous? LOL

 :holy-moly Looks like it might be techno disco in the room as they have blue lights and the Gecko' flash.  There is a Youtube Video in Chinese  but it is sub titled and looks like the installation to a Raspberry is quite simple.

Good luck put up a photo when they are all hooked up and running.

Good video. Is the potted plant a necessity or an accessory?  :rofl: I will post a pic when done.
I cannot run them at BU on a RPi. There is a procedure but it is lengthy and you have to do it each time you reboot or restart BOINC.

I just put "El Diablo" back online. The small pic does not do it credit to the enormity but you get the idea. I still have some cable management to do but I completely ran out of small wire ties. Need to put the side cover on the server so it does not look like it just committed seppuku.  :wink
This has been a lot of fun ... now we shall see what numbers it produces.
:golf


Dingo

Looks good and let the credits start rolling in.  I am a bit jealous but I have had my time, now just need to go with the flow and do what I can.  It will be interesting to see how much your credits per Day jump.  :bravo

Thanks JN and Dingo. I got 1,585,305,326 on the first 3/4 day of operation. Can it do 2 billion/day? Should be able to tell tomorrow.  :fingers

WOW...super impressive.
I wonder how much Bitcoin you would pull in if it weren't being donated to projects. I see the price hit an all time high.

If anyone is interested:
I got the following eBay email from asmidl3 in Croatia

"Respect
Are you interested in buying antminer u3 have in stock 50 pieces
Price depends on the amount that would have taken
for further details contact message"

He is known to be a reputable seller. I do not know if he has them listed or is selling them outside eBay. His international shipping rate was $35 USD on the ones he had listed before.

Well, it looks like the new array has settled down to doing ~20 BU wu's every 20 minutes.  :crazy Took a sneak peek at PG&E this AM ...  :faint:

Thanks for the message about the U'3s. Personally, I'm done. Definitely no more Bitcoin hardware for me. (Just noticed I got the same email.  sigh...wish I could afford more but I have to say no :()

Edit - wow..lets call a spade, a spade..DM you are now contributing WELL over HALF the teams daily credits! 5th fastest daily credits with daylight between us and 6th.
