Look like a very old block erupter blade setup. What does it do? 200gh at 600+ watts? Thats is one old antiquity.

Actually, that looks like an old Avalon or Avalon clone. Look at the chips, if its an Avalon of Avalon clone, the chips will say Avalon.

Being only 2 modules, I'm thinking 120GHs.... but it depends on wether its an Avalon 1 or Avalon 2

I actually still have my Avalon 1 and a highly modified Avalon 2 clone....

CAUTION THOUGH.....

These relics push the limits on the molex connectors. The molex pins can only handle so much amperage per pin and these units go right to that edge. They will start smoking, they will melt, they will cook the circuit boards leaving you to have to modify the boards because the solder traces separated from the circuit board due to excessive heat. Not to mention since it is a plastic melting, its right next to starting on fire...

I see i had a bad source. I was using this as source;

Which was tied to an auction on Aliexpress that has suddenly disappeared.

Look like i had the efficiency ratio right however? (Abysmal)

Recycle it .... lots of aluminum, and some E-Waste recyclers will buy the circuit boards
