how much do you think a single K-16 4.5go in the 600 order numbers range would sell for when it arrive ?
Right now pre-ordered K16s are going for $850-$1000. When you have the board in hand, it will most likely sell for $2500-$4000. I've seen the Blade sell for a high price. It was going for $7000 for something like 10 -15 GHZ. If you can get that type of money for them. Is it worth it to hang on to them and mine? Or is it just for fun?

Yeah there is one 3 pin header for them i believe.
So to connect two adjacent K-16's you need a 3 pin female to female header block between the boards that they both plug into? I guess once we see the physical boards it will all become clear. Will the boards lock, solder together or just jumpers? Any cables have to be special to reduce noise? Each board have to have power or does being connected take care of it? What is the best type of computer to use? How to mount and cool them. Etc etc etc. These headaches are why I'm having the boards hosted. If I don't like hosting I will buy and have them put in a pre-designed case.

You can not change the adress with someone else
We both have chosen hosting... If you trust him good luck with that. I wouldn't do it unless TH switched over ownership. So TH will contact you instead, when they need your BTC address. That way no one will have any control over your boards. Not even considering you sending him 8 BTC and hoping he's honest.

All he has to do is send me a refund and I will shut the fuck up, if it's that important to you go ahead and buy me out, see my previous threads for pricing information.
btw, I submitted an FTC complaint today.
I don't understand why they don't? They could just open up a limited amount of new orders to cover the refunds if needed.

Good info, thanks for the update terrahash.
What's needed to cool the board at 275-300?
Right now I am using an old AMD processor fan/heatsink. I applied some heatsink paste, however, the board is not screwed to the heatsink, its just placed on top of it. Its working! how about those refunds amir! ahhh ignore function Dont know why I didnt so this earlier +1000 I would use the ignore function but it's a good idea to know what they're up to. What new angle of attack.

Just got back from the dentist and look what the friendly folks at TerraHash left for me. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FKu5IIO1.png&t=663&c=4xlkzu26z-nz5g) How could they invest the money if PayPal froze their account? Has that been proven? They said their account was frozen but they have mis-represented other stuff too. Probably. Enough of the orders went through for them to be able to purchase what they need to complete the orders. If you get your products by August 15 you're going to have a hard case to get your money back.

I'm planning on stopping by TH/s office to say hello and see how things are going. I am planning on giving a full report after I make the visit. Good Idea. I was thinking of going up there in late July but I live 5 hours away and it would be a major trip. Other than getting the boards hashing (which is one of the major obstacles). The cases and hosting taken care of. No major production will happen until they get the chips. Not knowing if getting the boards is a problem? If they have their chips and boards in production by late July they will likely make the August 15 delivery date.

How long should one wait after requesting a refund before opening a PayPal dispute ?
I would go to your PayPal account and read up on it. 1 2 3 and you will have the money back.

What is strange to me is the fact that power cables are reversed. Maybe It isnt quite important but I always try to match black to negative and red to positive. Old habit of mine.
Update: also putting 2 chips on the 16x board wont make testing much sence unless it is really early stages and You want to check power source etc.
Anyway - keep the good work! Hopefully it brings good fruits.
I'm sure the polarity is right or it wouldn't work. They could just reverse it on the power supply outputs if not soldered to the correct polarity. Each one of those 4 circuits are the same. All they need to do is get the software and circuitry working on one circuit. Get it hashing. They will then have the others working soon enough.

Just download a personal wallet to your computer. Then back it up and encrypt it. Don't leave your coins up on an uninsured site that could lose or steal them.
Please explain how the site could steal his bitcoins? I don't think you understand how blockchain.info works. Please also explain how the site could lose his bitcoins if he manages to get a backup of his wallet from the site? I'm sure they have a back door somehow. As my balance went down a fraction of a Bitcoin more than once while I was using their service. First they charge you over %5 of your fiat to change it to Bitcoins. Secondly, I always received less coins than I agreed to buy even though the price did not change when I went to the store to wire them the cash. One time I was offered what they called close to 5.12 bitcoins and received 3.8! I think they even charge a fee when you move your Bitcoins off their wallet. They're second only to Bitfloor in screwing me over.

Blockchain.info is 100% safe. They provide options to easily export private keys, so if you fear that website can be shutdown, you can make an offline backup of the wallet.
LOL.,, good one. It's the best place to pay the highest possible price for BTC. And the only place that my wallet leaked. ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)

The boards will eventually work. Good news.

Who here is letting terrahash host for you?
It's 16 cents per killowatt here, so I thought it was worth it for my single board.
Anyone know the details of their mining pool? Any fees besides flat monthly?
Will people who let terrahash host for them get their coins a few days earlier due to a lack of shipping?
That's my plan. They charge too much for electricity in my area. Hopefully $10 per board/month is all I have to pay. They say a nominal fee and every 2-3 days you will get your coins sent to you per hash power. Sounds good to me. I might call TH and check the details. Thinking of getting out of this if pay pal holds up things too much. Plus Bit Coin is going down lately and I could just buy the coins with no risk.
