In the old days when you did a pre-order you worried that you may not get it.
With sidehack & you I know I am getting it, now just the anticipation is killing me.
How is the power draw in the real world? Sound level?
Thanks,
Dave
Sound is negligible, quiet as hell and I even mounted a second fan on the back.
Best thing about this pre-order is we're not waiting on the miners, just the accessories. The PCBs are already built, the heatsinks are drilled out, the fans are here. Right now the only thing keeping me from shipping out miners on Monday is waiting for USB cables (broker sent the wrong ones last week), power bricks and the sweet logo decals (which are coming from a print shop across the street).
As for noise, it's pretty quiet. 80mm 160mA 12V case fan. I don't have a decibel reading but it's quite nonintrusive from more than a couple feet away.
Real-world power draw is going to depend on your power supply efficiency. I believe the bricks we have coming in are rated for 87% or so; 419mining is the go-between there so he can tell you the specs better. I spent about 10 hours the other day getting efficiency data from several units so once I finish charting the last ones I can put up some good info for different frequencies at different voltage settings, with margins for deviation and the like. But in general you're looking at a machine-level range from about 75 to 100W/TH depending on volt setting (and other factors like board temperature).
Looks like the delay is on us, we had mini cables ordered for GS not micro by mistake. Don't worry those responsible have been appropriately flogged.
We have a extra treat for our pre-order'ers and their patience in the works, as well have a little something for everyone who have pre ordered a r606 unit from GS, 419 and minersupply to make up for it. Just make sure you've ordered by April 24th from us or any of them.
