rpetilia was arrested and is locked up in an insane asylum lol true story
who could have predicted that
Source? rpetilia himself I felt a bit sorry for him with the way things turned out for him. He may be an oddball but nobody deserves to have 100,000BTC stolen, it's no wonder he cracked, that's about $12 million. I'd flip out if I lost 100BTC. That's assuming that it really was that much of course. However, just when the Dwolla story broke someone dumped about 80,000BTC, I can't help wondering if that was his coins rather than the Dwolla story because they all got dropped in one go. Apart from those coins that got suddenly dropped there was no crash, there just seemed to be a rush to buy the cheap coins, followed by a return to normal over the next few hours. If it had been the Dwolla story I'd have expected the price to continue to fall for a bit longer than that. Tin foil hat on standby WTF? Somebody stole him 100 000BTC? This guy had 100kBTC? How was that possible? He kept in on instawallet or what? Sorry for not reading up on the thread myself, it's a little lengthy..

What's the material you used for this water block? Is the hole 1/4' standard? What kind of water channel inside? I believe a normal water cooling system is enough.
Aluminium Yes, straight 1/4 inch (for flat sealing) Round How would that differ? I mean no need to use a refrigerator. Use normal water cooling system with radiator, reservoir, and pump is enough. It can get pretty hot where I live and I don't want to keep my Avalon inside all the time (and the air con on 24/7...) because I guess it will be pretty noisy. I guess I would need pretty big radiators for passive cooling, and the chiller I posted is not expensive. Also it's set value can be adjusted up to 40 degree - than it shouldn't use so much electricity any more. I'm still fantasying about putting the whole setup on the balcony...

This is very nice, you might try some overclocking without fans disturbing the whole neighbourhood.
I want one if it comes with the Avalon unit.
The chiller I posted can make 2 centigrade Celsius water - would be curious if my Avalon hashes faster then...

So what's everybody blathering about? A rally is coming?

You`re kidding, right?? 1. Alu ?? 2. It`s 2,5Kg? 3. Haw can i fit it into avalon case, sorry - 3 or 4 of them to cool it ?
Think about Cu/Plexi sandwitch. It`s much more lighter. Sommethink like fullcover for GPU. This brick is ussles IMHO.
1. Yes, a very good heat conductor 2. Yes. Original one is 1.6kg 3. It's smaller than the original. Cu/Plexi? Please make us a sample... Advantages of my solution: less leakages, much appreciated by experienced water coolers.

Hello All, I've made some water cooling elements for my hopefully soon arriving batch 2 Avalon. As it isn't here yet I have no chance of testing... However I post the manufacturing drawing, if anybody feels like making his own - please go ahead and take my design if you wish to. Also I want to gauge interest if somebody would like to buy some - the offers I have from my vendors are about 150US$/pc. The amount of M3 threads on this is roughly double than the original Avalon heat sink (the PCB's have the holes, god knows why they didn't execute it on the heat sink). I am in China, if there is some other Avalon user here who wants to have a try on water cooling please contact me. I would be interested about noise level and over clocking potential. As a chiller I was thinking about http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=2013.1.w31-17520194789.4.legfcf&id=10299146223. Additionally you need some hose, fittings and a pump (a central heating pump should do fine). I would prefer to put the whole setup on my balcony (still need a solution for the PSU), but if only the chiller is outside and two small hoses come in it's also fine. The PSU shouldn't be as loud as the rest is supposed to be.

Outsourcing also makes trouble, and I think they have enough of that getting their SMT line running
|
|
|
And how does that sums with them not wanting to sell a batch 4? You don't need the smt line for selling chips.
But for your own mining farm, which I guess is the big master plan. Correct me if Yifu revealed their plans in the speech and it should be something else...
|
|
|
Or maybe the old smt line is busy?
I don't think that there is an old SMT line. I guess production was outsourced so far, that's common and doesn't make too much trouble. So whats the problem with using the old outsourced smt line after 2 months of delays? The production line being first priority, delivering second?

5:10 "our new SMT line production bla bla in a few weeks from now"
That's really really bad news. I would appreciate them outsourcing this step, as they already did in the past. Building production can take time, make problems and deadlines are hardly met - even by professionals which do it all the time. And for this guys it's the first time, no offence.

120-something now... Who is stupid enough to sell now, on the end of the weekend, before the Americans get up?
By the way the only ones driving the price up. Despite China, Russia and Whatnot hype all the other local exchanges deal lower than Gox at this moment. This was already the other way round, makes me suspicious.
|
|
|
It's 2000JPY? That's 15€?

|

This "Get-out-of-Gox" yankee-rally won't last long I don't see the volume for that

They are still working on production line Source? They were mining with some, they told this before.
Source? no they didn't
Source?

Yifu your google phone mailbox is full, just saying.
edit: Alright, no surprises: 20 units are out, testing the new shipping techniques to avoid damage on packages, expect to hear the next news from San Francisco, trade ins are a in differente queue, they are still working on production line but, whatever that means, they will get priority handling. Soon costumers will be asked to pay.
The machines are lightning fast but, god, they know how to create a delay. Godspeed in this last mile.
You reached him? Still working on the production line is bad news. Can take forever. So they 20 units have been produced externally or are from batch 1 and have been mining for them so far?
