@ BitSyncom
Since you have time to answer all the really nice questions above;
Maybe you have also the time to answer this?
-How many units have you ship so far
-and how much is the expected daily capacity before the CNY?

Or is it a trade secret?
Thanks for your time.

around 12 a day currently, so total about 40, however I am seriously unsure how many actually made it outside of the country, I'll be giving Jeffs tracking number soon as I get it, during business hours I call the people handling the shipping every 2 hours or so for updates.

We are seriously bottle necked by Customs at the moment ( due to upcoming CNY as well ) and are looking for more routes, it isn't really a trade secret as this is honestly beyond our control at this point. God, I hate sounding like BFL.

Does this come with a port to pump liquid nitrogen inside the case to keep it from melting?

Huh? They've been quoting 400 watts. Who has trouble cooling a 4U case pulling 400 watts?
Intel. I own one of those servers. Ha.

Time for funny story on cooling, BFL said something like we'd run into similiar problems like them knowing our design is completely different, e.g. rolled vs pipeline, we chuckled; since we are ahead, I'll say the same, I think BFL is going to run into some problems we ran into as well.

Anyways, cooling was the exact opposite, our units cool so well, we removed two fans. ZING.

Case is not empty, treasure is real, keep guessing.

it has something to do with this


Comes with Windows 8 RT!!!!!  Grin
A radiator?

Cold, double time.

Took 16 pages to notice! Man, I thought trolls were better and would notice right away!

You are on the right track, treasure is ahead.

p.s. not calling you a troll or anything.

Ha, I try my best not to troll..though I know I slip up from time to time, so no worries there Tongue

And I don't care if it is empty or filled with diamonds. It's just for show to try and appease people...BFL did the same thing (though not as well)...and I get that. We're all going to get our fill of pics and specs once they start arriving on people's doorsteps.

Case is not empty, treasure is real, keep guessing.

This surface should not be like a heatsink or failing as a fan? It would be the first in history heatsink smooth.

It's an empty case...

Zoom in and adjust the contrast/brightness on the picture and it becomes clear as day Wink

Do you accept credit card for batch 2 or only btc?

Bitcoins only, we've never accepted credit cards.
227  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: [Announcement] Avalon ASIC Ships on: January 22, 2013, 02:46:59 PM
I understand CNY (Chineese New Year holiday) is taking place from 10 feb until 25 feb this year.

Since you started shipping yesterday, it's 3 weeks until CNY starts.

(Just posting this for my own records, please correct if wrong.)

Good luck with the new site !

And as indicated before and customs, these are two factors we were unable to control. I've also stated this in our development thread, over a month ago.
228  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Interested in AVALON guy? Come on, let me show u his TRUE COLOR. on: January 22, 2013, 02:30:39 PM
thanks RobertM, now that you posted the whole story, you have even less of an arguement.

tl;dr;

ngzhang: I'm not customer support, just because you purchased Avalon does not mean I need you answer your calls, I'm leaving, I got stuff to do and no time to deal with you trolls. ( none of these people ordered from Avalon ).

like on Bitcointalk, most Avalon supporters simply bought units from us, and Trolls spend all day trolling on the forum, China is no different, see this chat group log.
229  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: [Announcement] Avalon ASIC Ships on: January 22, 2013, 12:53:00 PM


I got this from the Avalon faq.
In the first sentence you wrote shipping 300 units will take 2 weeks, conservative estimated.

But right after this the promise to ship all before the end of Feb.

The difference is more than a month.

Can you be more clear about this ?

CNY.

we said about this the day we announced this project back in september, 2012. too much trolling has lost valuable information, and fast pace development cycle has cause the neglect of websites as well, I'll be retiring that FAQ section in the one on the new site, which will be up to date. http://launch.avalon-asics.com
230  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: [Announcement] Avalon ASIC Ships on: January 22, 2013, 12:10:02 PM
Are the units rack-able? How tall are they, 4U, correct? What about the depth?

Also BitSyncom, could you please answer to my PM? It would be really appreciated.

Thank you.


4U, need attachments, planned.

Sending scanned documents payment order number 200000846.
Tell me when it will be shipped?
You can specify the amount of sending $ 720

why the order status has not changed?
wrote to your support, even in different places. No one answers.


Order #    Date    Ship To    Order Total    Status    
200000846    11/24/12    ----    $8,159.94    Pending Wire    View Order

No offense anti76, You sent a wire on 01/10/2013 for this order, long after everyone else and the orders have ended, which effectively making you the last person who will receive these units, and because of the paranoid security measures we take, I am unable to get secure access to change your order at the moment, nor I am in a hurry. I have already informed you in the previous thread I am aware of this order and this will be taking cared of.

Since ultimately we are at fault for not closing your order after you failed to pay in 10 days as per Terms of Service you accepted when purchasing Avalon, I will be honoring your wire payment, but I am more than happy to issue you a refund if these terms are not satisfactory.
232  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: [Announcement] Avalon ASIC Ships on: January 22, 2013, 08:32:47 AM
Since the thread in your sig is locked it probably would make sense to change your sig ...

Good call, to your answer your question: the source code will be uploaded to github soon as we remove a bunch of debug related stuff.
233  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: [Announcement] Avalon ASIC Ships on: January 22, 2013, 08:18:36 AM
Please don't make new threads about batch 2.

There will be pre-sales thread here soon as we are ready, followed by 2 news letters before it goes out accompanied by a single countdown timer then may the fastest clicker win.

pro tip: use Bitcoin for speedy confirmations.

Sample Batch ( about 10 units ) at the end of December, 2012
- video demonstration of final product in operation can be seen at this time.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=110090.0

Where can I find this promised video?

no information on that thread is up to date.

Batch #1
Batch Status: Shipping

Batch Size: 300 Units
Duration: 9/23/2012 ~ 11/24/2013

Seeing as I invested in ASICMINER I truly hope shipping of the first batch will take till 11/24/2013 till complete Smiley

typo.

also woah, who found/leaked the URL. note the information on it is not exactly complete.

for the time being, the information on that site is subjected to change.
236  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: [Announcement] Avalon ASIC Ships on: January 21, 2013, 04:44:02 PM
logos are laser printed, only visible under certain viewing angles.
237  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: [Announcement] Avalon ASIC Ships on: January 21, 2013, 09:17:21 AM

aha, and "maplesyrupghost" from this forum above is associated with the Avalon ASIC Team?

Incorrect, photo was posted here first.
238  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: [Announcement] Avalon ASIC Ships on: January 20, 2013, 10:31:48 PM


For those like myself doing difficulty estimates for calculating future BTC price changes, can we assume this might have been an order of 75 Avalon discounted? What was original purchase price?

If 75, it's 4.5 TH/s.

Since this "joke" by PuertoLibre isn't dying, I'll confirm here that it is in fact been photoshop'd.
239  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: [Announcement] Avalon ASIC Ships on: January 20, 2013, 07:21:25 PM
We've anticipated this behavoir, so we decided to wait a little and address the following.

Quote
Trolls: omg post fucking photos!

Avalon posts photo.

Trolls: how we know these things even work! post fucking videos.

Avalon posts video.

Trolls: wtf that shit is staged.

Avalon says: wait till third party review.

and back where I originally started.
240  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: [Announcement] Avalon ASIC Ships on: January 20, 2013, 02:04:27 PM
By the way, serious question and all joking aside, does the Avalon Team need more time to fine tune things? Do you think you got a quality product out (no regrets or anything)?

Hang on, I though you worked for Avalon?

Incorrect.
