I'm interested, sent an e-mail, confused on the actual price due to difference in range.

Using information found here http://www.innosilicon.com/html/news/13.html

A4 Dominator ASIC & Miner Specifications:

A4 Miner: 400Mhs per 1KW power supply in one standard miner box
A4 ASIC: 3.5Mhs per chip performance at 2.5W/MHs nominal, see tables below on modes
Extreme Low Power: ASIC with large memory running at single rail 0.6V
One Start and New PCB: eliminate the need of DC-DC components and enable 14 to 20 A4 chips running off the single 12V DC supply
PSU Requirements: common PCI-E 8Pins/6+2Pins with 12V output
Included: Raspberry Pi running the most user friendly A2 terminator Software
Server Grid Reliability: Built-in high-procession temperature sensor for automatic chip protection and variable frequency operation to maximize chip life time

This breaks down to somewhere between 115 to 143 chips in an A4.

At $12 per chip the effective estimated price range is $1380 to $1716 depending on whether or not its 400MH or 500MH.

Hope that's accurate because if it is, super exciting news.

[charles2k]

What is the minimum order quantity?

[Picturs]

Not so exciting for most people. Litecoin mining is not very popular as the price is not going higher. If they produce a Ethereum chip, more people will be interested.

[QuintLeo]

How are we suppposed to give a pre-order quantity when we have ZERO CLUE what the price is on the miners?

 This is TOTALLY BACKWARDS.

[jacobmayes94]

I have sent an email, I am interested.

Wonder what this means for KNC Titan owners this is a little sooner than I expected

[mjgraham]

I sent an email but this is really an odd way to sell something, maybe I missed it but was there a data sheet out? use the same software? just interface it and go with the old cgminer. At $12 a chip if I didn't have to buy 10k of them would be cool, just when I started working on a way to software control the voltage on the A2 boards.

[QuintLeo]

They have some basic specs out on the chip, very little available on the miner itself yet.

 Why worry about cgminer, the A2 Terminator units were self-contained and from what I've seen the A4 is also self-contained (possibly might be "add power supply" like the Farm Boys") and appears to be based on the A2 design.

 Titans should continue to be profitable for a while - and if you own a Titan and it's not achieved ROI by now, you're in trouble anyway or it was one of the many that had cores die young.


 Probability of an Ethereum ASIC is basically ZERO - by the time someone could get one designed and into production, ETH will probably have gone POS or will only have a VERY FEW MONTHS left before it does go POS leaving way too short a time to achieve ROI on an ETH ASIC miner.

[Searing]

Yeah I sent them an email just to see if I'd get a reply. They got right back to me and asked 'how many'


I said TWO (should have said 20 duh just to get some replies) and they have ignored my other 2 emails since

too small fry ..they are chasing IPO and big miner $$$ without a lot of success imho

BUT they make other chips..not just asic's for ltc or btc...THUS the IPO $$$ was for making 14nm chips

if they DO get IPO $$ it is a win/win/win for them in

1) investors paid for 14nm equipment needed to make these scrypt miners and such equip can be used to make other 14nm chips by their firm (non-crypto)

2) they can build their data hall first using the above equipment and a much lower cost per chip and cost to mine them as a data hall

3) the 2 things above 'if successful' would be something to point to to get a) more IPO $$ or b) pursue 'bulk sales' of these 14nm chips to other data halls for equip

So my 'guess' is the A4 Dominator will be a limited run in that why sell a bunch and water down the $$$ made by your data hall miner operation with a lot of home miner users

they will make a few to show stuff exists (like sfards) but the main thrust imho if I am right was the expansion of equipment needed for their biz of 14nm chips

and their own data hall mining such (and no one else) till such point they go to bulk chip sales and move on..probably months later

I'm betting also the A4 Dominators or the relatively 'few' that will be available for 'pre-order' will run about $4k at the least...

we will see how close i am

supposedly this A4 Dominator is supposed to hit the 'world' in July 2016....looking a lot like butterfly labs vaporware at this point ....at least to the 'masses'

Interesting approach, I said I wanted ONE in my e-mail that was sent within minutes after my post, I still haven't got a reply.

Guess this is another confirmation of who they are after.

I guess I was just wondering if I bought some ASICs how would I make them work, I can build boards and design hardware, I am sure the A4 miners will be a good to go item but , at least me when I am thinking about designing something from the ground up having a little more info.

I didnt get a reply either to me email... go figure

Guess this is another confirmation of who they are after.

the first email I asked if i could get miners....they came back and said how many...i said 2 (should have said 20 to keep it going) last email I got

so yeah...you saying 1 right off..does seem to be the view "go away small fishy..we only want whales"

[mjgraham]

Ha, I don't know why but I thought we were buying ASICs, I had just asked for info in the email, I was looking at getting like 200, I guess if they had though 200 complete miners been right on it.

[jacobmayes94]

I had no response so far, I only wanted 1 or 2... Is this only for chips? Who could turn them into mining rigs for us?

Looks like we shouldn't retire the titans just yet

[mjgraham]

No I think it is for complete miners, but they listed the asic price and left us all guessing, I was thinking it was for ASICs and I was going to design my own hardware but I'd guess that has already been done. After we add a case , heatsinks PCB costs and shipping I'd say 2.5 to 3k in costs would be a good guess.I just like building things.

[adaseb]

Scrypt gear is never cheap. Especially when they are the only manufacture. I am guessing about a year ROI time.

[jacobmayes94]

I havn't had a response yet though

[Searing]

Scrypt gear is never cheap. Especially when they are the only manufacture. I am guessing about a year ROI time.

IF they play this like most...big ass 'self-funded' IPO $$$ data center mining scrypt (like knc did with their 14nm btc chip never released it kept it for themselves) and very very few A4 Dominator units just to wave the flag that their equip really exists and thus flag more folk to invest in their data center farming...ie more newbie IPO $$$ much more cash then a group of newbie home miners of scrypt.

rinse/wash/repeat

A year is about right. Likely won't ROI in a year ...but I'd guess the same....the big svings is in their internal data hall mining scrypt

 To the best of my knowlage, Innosilicon doesn't HAVE a datahall.

 They also don't NEED an "IPO" - they have a long-established chip making business that appears to be quite profitible on it's own ALREADY.

 On the other hand, they probably are pushing for initial sales to large farms and resellers like Zoomhash.

 There is no real evidence that KNC ever deployed a significant amount of their "Solar" chip in quantity - at most, they managed to deploy enough of it to replace older miners and little if any more, since their block find rate never demonstrated a significant jump.

 The Alcheminer folks have announced they're working on a "next gen" chip/miner, but no idea how far along they are on it - Innosilicon MIGHT end up with competition again in Scrypt eventually.


 I sent an email asking about even APPROXIMATE miner pricing, specifying that I couldn't say "how many" without a PRICE. No reply yet, but that might be in part explained by the weekend.
