Is it just an overclocked Red/Blue Fury ??? I have not seen an 5.2 GH/s USB anywhere .... http://www.ebay.de/itm/BITCOIN-MINER-USB-Fastest-USB-miner-in-the-world-5-2-GH-s-ASIC-miner-/301016363725?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4615f932cd Title: Re: 5.2 GH/s USB ASIC Miner ???

But what is it ??? Just an overclocked Red/Blue Fury or an "new" developed product ?? How does he get 5.2 GH/s ?? Title: Re: 5.2 GH/s USB ASIC Miner ??? Post by: cscape on November 14, 2013, 06:55:11 AM It's not based on Red/Blue fury, but an independently designed product. It's faster because it uses 2 ASICs.

Thanks for that topic :) Title: Re: 5.2 GH/s USB ASIC Miner ??? Post by: Atomar on November 14, 2013, 01:01:59 PM Yes. Very interesting Project.
But € 178 is to much! Plus the UPS cost ?! I'm from Europe. But still ... we probably talk about another € 20 - € 30. And maybe some € for custom fee. Title: Re: 5.2 GH/s USB ASIC Miner ??? Post by: pabloangello on November 14, 2013, 01:29:15 PM Yes. Very interesting Project. Yep they need to adjust the price to the current difficulty and Bitcoin exchange.But € 178 is to much!

Post by: btmtb on November 14, 2013, 02:32:52 PM It will be interesting to see how it performs with the power limitations of USB. Worth a keeping an eye out for any similar implementations at a more reaslistic price if it proves successful. I'd consider a more realistic price to be in the region of €100 (looking at techno's costs for singles).

They have listed this for sale on this forum if you do a search. I think it is cheaper than eBay. Title: Re: 5.2 GH/s USB ASIC Miner ???

Worth a keeping an eye out for any similar implementations at a more reaslistic price if it proves successful. I'd consider a more realistic price to be in the region of €100 (looking at techno's costs for singles). When overclocked, it uses more than 500 mA, so it can't be powered from a standard USB 2.0 connector. You need USB 3.0, or special hub with external power. It can be underclocked, though, and I've seen mine do about 4GH/sec on a 500 mA budget. |
