Yea I know. I'm just saying they couldn't ship him a 1 chip miner as the hsf would be un-balanced. |

Any news about Avalon chips shipping??
You're kidding right? |

The original design is 8 chips for 60GH, so each chip is designed to be run at 8GH. Now in Jalapeno there are 2 chips, but only made it 5GH, I suppose that some of the low quality chips went into Jalapeno
I don't think BFL knows which chips are good and which are poor until they solder them onto a board. That may be true, but I would think that they could easily create some pogo pin testing stations, which would allow quick benchmark testing on each chip in a matter of a 5-10 seconds per device. It's not uncommon to do this prior to assembly, so that you don't waste time soldering in a DOA chip. A few seconds on the front end saves an hour of work on the back end repairing a board with a faulty chip.  Didn't one of the guys who posted about receiving a Jalapeno get one with lower hashing power because one chip turned out to be a dud so they disabled it and clocked the other one higher but falling short of target? Nothing I've seen from BFL indicates they have any clue about their chips and simply solder them on and see what happens. Gives you a bit of a clue how "streamlined" their production process is at this stage. Hence the very low volume. I believe they had to use 2 chips because if they had one on the PCB the heatsink wouldn't sit probably and many bad things would happen. |

If interested post here first.
Current Price is 250 FTC for 20 LTC.
You're out of your mind. You can get 1k FC for 30 LTC. Not anymore.... |

Traded 1k FC with Majormax!
Cheers!

Do I look like living wikipedia or something? You are on the Internet and you have a brain, do the homework yourself.
Then you clearly have nothing to support your statements. |

Feathercoin is early adopter scam, and the same goes to Mincoin and partially to Bytecoin. The last fairly started coin was ... can't recall any, LOL!
From your line of thinking, every coin is a scam. Bitcoin and Litecoin differ, but you would not know since you actualy have no clue about anything. Then explain how early adopters of BTC or LTC didn't benefit. |

I'll happily join you in pre-mining.  |

In with 40 chips so double density boards please. |

Are we "screwed" if we're at the end of the BFL queue for the 5 Gh/s devices (previously called "Jalapeños")? I ordered mine this month.
you can still mine them alt coins like PPC or Feathercoin. No you can't. Feathercoin is scrypt not sha256. |

I think zefir only accepts chip orders in multiples of 10. |

I've ordered 10 chips in Batch #3 and 10 chips in Batch #5 so far. So all together with this transaction, 40 chips.

3 mining boards á 10 chips == 30 avalon chips
wrong thread? |

Only choice you have is to join in the group buy of the Avalon ASIC chips and DIY them or get someone else to assemble them for you.
Another option, I would say is BFL 5 GH/s miners but who knows when you'll get them but to be fair they have started shipping. Albeit in tiny tiny quantities.

+1 for a double density board. |
