Title: BFL announces monarch shipping Post by: WeMineCoins on August 16, 2014, 02:00:52 AM Take this how ever you choose this will likely interest people who have orders already.
While PCB performance specifications have come in above the 600GH we originally projected, we have not yet hit the 1TH/s per PCB mark that we set for ourselves based on the strength of the underlying ASIC chip. We have achieved much higher speeds on test boards, but in order to be able to ship now we have stabilized the board at 700GH/s with power efficiency of 0.70 W/GH (+/- 10%). While we will continue to pursue the 1TH version of the Monarch for subsequent delivery, we want to get the best product we can out to you now. Shipping of Monarchs will begin next week. Here is an image of the Monarch ready for shipment to customers right now. (Please note the form factor with water cooling instead of air cooling) As a reward for customers' patience and loyalty, we are adjusting the price of the 700 GH/s boards to $1,379 (ONLY $1.97/GH) and will be providing rebates/refunds for the difference. (Does not include cloud mining or Mining by the GH) For those interested in running cards in power efficiency mode, here is a chart of power consumption at different speeds (@220V): GH Total W W/GH 550 339 0.62 600 368 0.61 650 432 0.66 700 471 0.70 730 530 0.73 780 609 0.78 Specific details about updates to customer orders will be emailed and posted to each customers’ dashboards as boards are ready to be shipped. https://forums.butterflylabs.com/blogs/bfl_josh/403-monarch-begin-shipping.html Title: Re: BFL announces monarch shipping Post by: Syke on August 16, 2014, 02:27:19 AM As a reward for customers' patience and loyalty, we are adjusting the price of the 700 GH/s boards to $1,379 (ONLY $1.97/GH) http://images.sodahead.com/polls/001519995/4013937978_roflmao128608859483110885_answer_1_xlarge.jpeg Title: Re: BFL announces monarch shipping Post by: HorseRider on August 16, 2014, 03:02:21 AM what does roflmao mean?

The first customers bumping up from their 2012 Single orders should see a Monarch around September....2015. Just in time to refuse delivery and then get both no refund and no miner.

Meanwhile I am sitting here with my miners at (under) 0.9$/GH and am really bummed that I didn´t ride the butterflylabs train to josh/Sonnytown /sarcasm This time only a little more than half a year´s delay? That means next time it might be only 4 months delay, which constitutes express delivery for BFL. Also: Quote Shipping of Monarchs will begin next week™ Title: Re: BFL announces monarch shipping Post by: Gleb Gamow on August 16, 2014, 03:31:33 PM What happened to their promised leading efficiency of something like 0.4W/GH ;D ;D Meanwhile I am sitting here with my miners at (under) 0.9$/GH and am really bummed that I didn´t ride the butterflylabs train to josh/Sonnytown /sarcasm This time only a little more than half a year´s delay?

They can imply that a shipping label would have been used has it been necessary to ship but otherwise in no uncertain terms would they not have shipped had they not actually had the unit for sale to a customer.

Title: Re: BFL announces monarch shipping Post by: Gleb Gamow on August 17, 2014, 05:04:53 PM It looks like Customer Grade Chips are now the B grade chips, Did the Farm use up all the A grade chips???? YES THEY DID! Josh Zerlan had everybody believing that he had full control of EMC up to the 11th/11th hour when it was revealed that BFL did indeed own it since at least Q4, 2012. When the vice president of a company starts talking about himself in the third person, it's time to locks the doors, for his company is about to be overrun by nothing less than refund request, sticking any motherfuckin' offer on the table up its ass. http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1d2ary/grnbrg_gets_bfl_review_unit_posts_new_pictures/ http://s11.postimg.org/hzzz788w3/Nitrowolf_is_BFL_Josh.jpg I bet that come Monday morning BFL will be in serious damage control mode. Can't wait to read how Josh is going to spin this revelation, hoping like hell he denies that Nitrowolf is him, for then it'll really be stuck up his ass. All those years of role playing finally has infected Josh's brain, for he honestly believes his nyms are not him, and visa versa.
