Unfortunately I only have a very limited inventory.
Something probably went wrong. I had ordered some pre-series devices,
in order to get a picture and to decide how many to order.
These should be available for immediately shipping at the beginning of the month, but now a few final cubes arrived directly.
Therefore, I will auction off the devices here:

Nice design. Any plans on implementing a 2nd gen asic chips?

Looks great!
Any extra info on the noise? It says "strong but silent" but are there any db(a) measurements? Might be interesting for people planning to run this at home.
Also, from what I see on the pictures it should be able to replace the fan. Will this be allowed within warranty or is there one of these "warranty void if broken" seals?

too much space for such low speed, 1 H card from BFSB beats this :)

Since the hashing speed isnt special, could I use it to warm up my room?

Or you can directly buy at Taobao : http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=18635057299 (http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=18635057299)

1990 Yuans...243 euros...0.77BTC.
Even if customs apply the tax (20%) this make the cube at ~ 292 euros = 0.93BTC

thx

I should start to buy @taobao.com, instead from ascminer directly.... very strange if the offer is legit

But Friedcat need to be fair for all resellers...

But Friedcat need to be fair for all resellers...

It should by now be apparent that the only thing friedcat is interested in, is lining his own pockets at the expense of everyone else. Well, that has been the case from the very beginning, but if people haven't noticed all the warnings that have been posted about him, that it's their own fault.

Stuff like this confuses me.  Why are those websites selling at lower prices than the *official* re-sellers?

Who is doing the bad to who?

Did you make the promotional images in the first post? If so, nice job! For those commenting on heat dissipation, it's not bad at all. I am waiting on my IR thermometer to come in so I can get an exact measurement.

CrazyGuy,

Did you receive your IR thermometer ?

Can you share some results ?   ( cube vs. 3 blades )   ??? ;D

Most of the resellers don't have any stock, no stock = people with stock can charge more as there is a higher demand if you want to start mining quicker.

I would be interested in the new price, But I guess you will add VAT and declare the full value in fiat so we have to pay again to receive our goods?

Eagerly awaiting information.  ;D

Any idea why the cube has 2 PCIe inputs? Does it need both powered to run?

yes you need both, because max. for one 6 pin PCI-e power connector is only 150W

just got told by 1 english taobao agent that these are out of stock, days after i placed my order *rage*
the second agent i used to purchase through says there is some delay expected *further rage*

i would love to have some of these, but right now it seems they cannot be found for a reasonable price (reasonable < $500)

Best I know, this only applies to PCs. Bitfury rigs pull more than 300W over two PCIe lines.

Who is doing the bad to who?

This is normal in the commerce world! Many big resellers have cheaper prices that the manufacturer, they buy big quantities and get high discounts. Also, when a product is outdated or old-fashioned will be sold by the manufacturer for very low price! Just 2 reasons why the prices are lower... there are many others.

The device needs both connectors to power up.

The sticker on the fans unfortunately dissolves very quickly. Best is to remove it before you start mining

First batch sold out very fast, hope the next bigger batch arrives fast :)
Price will be lowered significant. But exact price is set (taking into account the market situation then) when they are here in stock and ready
for 24h shipping
