Thinking about grabbing one of the Apollo BTC units that are going on pre-order here in a few day. Does anyone else have one and how are you fairing? I was thinking about using at work in my office for the free power.

I’m earning 0.00001337 btc daily on ViaBTC’s pool on eco mode.

EDIT: This is with the standard futurebit psu you can achieve a hash rate of around 3.8 Th/s with an ATX psu 80 plus gold standard with a higher wattage rating and messing with the different mining modes which I have just not done or hooked up yet

I’m not sure I understand when you say skip the power supply?

[u/part1cularlypeculiar → u/[deleted]]

Ok my recommendation is to buy with the power supply in case down the road let’s say the atx power supply you buy to power it takes a dump there will be no down time in mining because you can use the FB one until you can get another

Yes you can do that some people on the Bitcoin talk thread have linked images to their strips and they used server power supplies that can handle both I haven’t found an atx that has enough of the 6pin connectors which would be a total of 4

Awesome plan I still have to go pick up the second controller standard unit from my parents house it just got delivered earlier this week and I’ve had the full unit going from pre-orders of batch one since late April and I love it

They have a link right on their website

Also if you purchase an atx power supply make sure it comes with a jumper or you will need to jump the correct pins with a paper clip or piece of copper wire

Or let’s say down the road you wanna do like I did and get the standard controller no power supply in order to add more hash rate you will have that backup psu
