Hey, I bought one from bitmit yesterday for 6.433BTC, which was $220 the day I bought it. With the huge increase in bitcoin prices, however, 6.433BTC is now equal to around $300. Is there anyway I can get some of that back?

Would you pay him more today if the price had fallen?

Actually, I would have.

I know the shipping is free but how fast is it? Is it USPS priority or parcel post? I would be willing to pay a bit extra for priority.

Plug the miner in and you'll start getting some back.

I paid 8 BTC for one myself.

Fortunately I then bought the next couple using paypal.

I wish I had read this before purchasing the 2 I snagged before the mini crash today 4.8btc each. Would definitely have preferred paying for these with fiat.

I just PM'd him, and he sent me an invoice.  If you read the OP above, he mentions that he'll take paypal for them (verified accounts).

Are there any more available? (not showing up on Bitmit anymore, or I'm doing something wrong)

Hey to the other's who bought these, since the power cables aren't included what cable did you guys get/use for these. I have an extra PSU to use for molex for when they arrive but since I didn't get a ton I think a wallwart would be best any recommendations?

I just plugged mine into the spare Molex connectors on my GPU miner.  Installed MPBM on my existing BAMT USB stick, and now that machine manages the FPGAs too.

For a wallwart, I'd use these:

One of the users on this forum, Cablez, makes custom cables to run from your P/S to multiple fpga miners

i am planning to get some from him shortly.  He appears to have an excellent rep.

OK, I am probably doing something wrong, but I can only get the board to produce 38mh/s.

use TML bitstream and you should easily be able to get 425-450.
I run it and average about 475ish,  in a 60F ambient environment.

TML requires linux, right? I have zero experience with it.

Nope.  Java on windows will do.  I've run it on both windows and linux.

Hello Mr. EngMan!

I would like to purchase 1 or 2 X6500s off you.

I've got some coins on the way from Coinbase but if I could buy them from you via PayPal that would be even better!

Get in touch with me please.

Thanks.

Willing to extend shipping to Canada? I'd prefer to buy from you than from the German guy with no ratings who uses a cropped picture right off of the x6500 website.

I wasn't able to ever get the TML java files to run on windows, is there a special way to run them? I installed java and all the bells and whistles that come with it.

Where do I input that command though abra? Whenever I try to run the ZtexBTCMiner.jar or the TML.jar nothing happens. Am I supposed to input that information before running them somehow?
