Free-DC Campaign #12 part 2 is now open on Bitcoin Utopia

[Bok]

It's taken a while, but Henri has finally opened up the apps and such.

It will help pay for costs for the next year.

Now that is excellent news!

Are they going to offer a bfgminer wu? Last time I checked they didn't have one yet.

Turns out my monarch may not be bad. I was getting by with a 550W supply on one Monarch before. I'm thinking the power draw on Campaign 7 is higher than previous projects I ran. The 500W runs it now after I reseated all of the fan controllers on the Monarch, but trips off as soon as it's under load.

SO: Crazy question, I have 3x6pin inputs on the Monarch. Is it possible to split the load on those between 2 500W power supplies? I'm thinking no, but I just wanted to check if anyone has done it.

That shouldn't be a problem as long as you short them both out to make sure they both think they're connected to a computer. I did something similar when I was running 4 570's off of 1 mb.

And what is up with the non RSS announcement for campaign 12?

[cineon_lut]

I don't see any BFGminer preferences available except for campaign 7. And as of last night, they're not working with my Monarchs. Tasks taking forever, monarchs not generating any heat.

Hmmm, interesting. My Monarch seems to have been running fine all day here. No way I'd have 1 Bil credits today if it wasn't. I still have fresh #7 bfg's in cache, and my RAC for BU on the Windows machine with the Monarch hasn't changed recently... And the fan is blowing warm/hot air just like it always has for me.

And MyShortPencils Linux Monarch looks to be healthy and busy as well.

Yeah, i had two power supplies, each with a Monarch. BUT one of the power supplies failed, and the one that failed controlled the fans for both...so the 2nd one shut down when it got too hot. I have to dig for a power supply. Not sure it'll happen before Monday so I'm down for a few days from my 1.8BN/day. Sorry

EDIT: I wasn't even thinking to look at the monarchs since BOTH computers had tanked, I had blamed it on the switch in campaigns since it happened exactly at that point.

I have had 2 wu's hang and I caught them after they had both ran about an hour. not sure why the hang but one is at99.960% and 41.36 min and the other is at 99.996% and 54.16 min. I have them both suspended but guess it would be best to just abort them as I would guess they will neither validate.
