There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

Hey, I bought one from bitmit yesterday for 6.433BTC, which was $220 the day I bought it. With the huge increase in bitcoin prices, however, 6.433BTC is now equal to around $300. Is there anyway I can get some of that back?

Would you pay him more today if the price had fallen?

I know the shipping is free but how fast is it? Is it USPS priority or parcel post? I would be willing to pay a bit extra for priority.

He shipped mine via priority mail. That's awesome, will probably be picking one up then.

Plug the miner in and you'll start getting some back. I paid 8 BTC for one myself. Fortunately I then bought the next couple using paypal.

I just PM'd him, and he sent me an invoice. If you read the OP above, he mentions that he'll take paypal for them (verified accounts).

Hey to the other's who bought these, since the power cables aren't included what cable did you guys get/use for these. I have an extra PSU to use for molex for when they arrive but since I didn't get a ton I think a wallwart would be best any recommendations?

I just plugged mine into the spare Molex connectors on my GPU miner. Installed MPBM on my existing BAMT USB stick, and now that machine manages the FPGAs too. For a wallwart, I'd use these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/DC-12V-2000MA-2A-CCTV-power-adapter-security-camera-/180641270640

One of the users on this forum, Cablez, makes custom cables to run from your P/S to multiple fpga miners i am planning to get some from him shortly. He appears to have an excellent rep. See forum thread here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=74397.0

use TML bitstream and you should easily be able to get 425-450. I run it and average about 475ish, in a 60F ambient environment.

Hello Mr. EngMan!
I would like to purchase 1 or 2 X6500s off you.
I've got some coins on the way from Coinbase but if I could buy them from you via PayPal that would be even better!
Get in touch with me please.
Thanks.

Willing to extend shipping to Canada? I'd prefer to buy from you than from the German guy with no ratings who uses a cropped picture right off of the x6500 website.

I installed java and all the bells and whistles that come with it.

Where do I input that command though abra? Whenever I try to run the ZtexBTCMiner.jar or the TML.jar nothing happens. Am I supposed to input that information before running them somehow?
