It does not even have the network cable plugged in Smiley.  I suspect someone has a lcd and pumping numbers on it.

I'm not to worried about this coming to market.  Are they asking for pre-orders?

Did anyone ask about it not even having a network cord in?   I hope people are not preordering that thing.

It'll be a shame if people lose money ordering this.  Let's just hope people do a bit of research on this before losing their dough.

Two network interfaces would be nice if you could go from one miner to other.  But I'm sure they are just making it all up.

I can't imagine anyone who would pre-order something like this.

If it's the same German scam machine I saw pictures of about a month ago, the pictures pretty clearly indicate there's a second ethernet jack on the rear. Not trying to toss in support, just a bit tired of the same invalid point being made a dozen times.

Course with that said, I can really only see one cable going into the top rear machine in that one video, which is probably the power cord.

Anyone with an S4/S4+ can verify 1500 wall watts can be cleared by two sets of 120mm push/pull fans. The real crime with this design is the PSU cooling. Top venting? Really? Gross. I doubt it's a serious product as much for that reason as for their outrageous efficiency claims. I'll be impressed if this thing is a real miner. At least they're learning to build the box instead of trying to sell renders, but when will scammers learn a more realistic product with a more realistic price will get them more sales? Claim to be 20-40% better than current tech and you might convince more people.

With the grilles on 'em I can't really tell how much fan there is. Could be babies. Unless they're good 2-3A server fans, no way they'd be pushing enough air.

stay away, there is no proof on anything.
But imho many indications for a scam

I have offered them to sign a NDA, take a look at the prototype and buy the whole batch if I am satisfied.
They refused the offer with strange arguments. You can draw your own conclusions.
