Either a "Speculative Hardware" section or give fucking BFL its own subforum and move all the annoying posts.

Not going to lie...that is some damn sexy hardware.

If anybody is nervous about the impending ASIC doom and wants to unload their mini-rig today - not pre-orders - please PM me.

BFL claimed in the press release to have a venture capitalist.  If that were true why would they need preorder money for asic hardware?

Here is a much more likely scenario:  BFL wants to get their next-generation ASIC hardware out sooner than planned and is going to use your pre-order money to get things moving faster.  If BFL cannot get the hardware out fast enough, or a competitor beats them to market, BFL will simply file for Bankruptcy protection and you can kiss your unsecured creditor pre-order funds goodbye.

You can pretend I'm not correct but you know this is accurate.

BFL could easily silence all of us up by showing a hint of some proof.  But they can't because there is none.  Notice Inaba and Gigavps are (smartly) keeping their mouths shut this time.

Timeline will be available as soon as we start taking preorders. And I must say that it will come out at least 3 months earlier
than what most people have estimated. Hope that helps.

Why do you need pre-order money if you have a venture capitalist?

If you are NOT a scammer ... then PM me an amazon gift card code.

I will test it .. if it verifies .. .then I will send you BTC.
Just because a code works doesn't mean it wasn't purchased with a stolen credit card number.

I know you don't care but those of us with a conscience do.

Is this a thread to prove that anyone can BS a PRweb?

Yep. This elden tyrell guy got big game.

He spent $500 just for this. Could have used that to buy 3 Jalapeno coffee warmers for 10.5 GHash/s in the future presumably.

Guy must be mad BFL ASIC screwed over his bitstream licensing plans.

Don't jump off the bridge mate ! There is still hope Cheesy
$500 is not really anything when you're an adult.

Does the overclocker firmware clock up to 200MHz yet? If not, has there been any work recently towards that?
Just bought another board recently and one of the chips is up 212mh/s!

Will report if it goes higher.

Just keep in mind FPGA will be dead once ASIC is released 500Ghash.
Doubtful.  Firstly we all know BFL's track record.  If they say ASIC release is 12-16 weeks off you can read that as early 2013.  BFL is in business to make a profit, so regardless of what BS is posted now, the units will NOT be inexpensive.

Secondly, for FPGA mining to "turn off", the difficulty will have to be so great that it costs more to mine in electricity then btc you can generate.  Spartan 6 based miners are very efficient (and next generation even more so).

Thirdly, even if that electricity/btc point is reached, you can repurpose your FPGA miner.  Worst case scenario is you can sell off the board to a third party to salvage the FPGA.

Lots of people said FPGA will kill off GPUs and you can clearly see that market is still flourishing.

I'm using the revision 4 overclocker on http://fpgamining.com/documentation/firmware and seeing 182-210 MH/s with an average of 199.

When you load the firmware, set the initial clock to 200 and max to 250.

856  Economy / Computer hardware / X5000 FPGA Bitcoin Miner - One of Four! on: June 07, 2012, 06:42:15 AM
First FPGA miner introduced for sale way, way back...in September 2011.  One of four sold before the fpgamining.com crew introduced the newer dual core X6000.  This little guy has a single Spartan 6 LX150.  Selling because I don't have the technical expertise to bring it under the MPBM umbrella nor develop a faster bitstream (currently using a 120mh/s bitstream).  Includes a Xilinx programming cable (JTAG interface).  I spent about $500 for this and the programming cable but selling at half price.  50btc shipped.  Cheap enough to play with and increase your FPGA skillz...

That's what you think.

There are no legitimate Amazon codes for significant discounts (>10%).  They have ALL been obtained illegitimately.
