If you happen to have in hand Avalons you can most likely ask +10k$ and get that money too.

I was offered $10k, and then $20k for mine.  I said no both times.

Sell Sell Sell!  You should count yourself lucky if you manage to get your fiat back as a price, because those BFLs that are going to ship any day now are going to make your rig worthless.

PM me with your prices.

Beware the weak hands!

If BFL started shipping 31st March, like they claim,

and they can produce 400 a day, like they claim,

then there should be 1200 happy BFL owners today?  Huh

and that's able to dissipate 125 watts at full tilt.

at this moment its drawing 160 watts.

160 - 125 = 35 Watts to much.


160w is wall current, with an overloaded power brick and severely overloaded vcore regulators. Certainly a far cry from their 30w target for a device running at 30gh/s but a board respin with properly sized vcore regulators will improve efficiency and a better power brick would increase efficiency as well.

Their heatsink is probably capable of 120w tdp as others have said since it appears similar to amd's heat pipe sink for their hotter chips. It won't be quiet though.

Hello,
with BFL recent news of their product possibly becoming a reality.  Would I be advised to sell my Avalon batch #2 and #3.  Any feedback would be great!

 note: I still do want to mine bitcoins and isn't all about money

[conflict of interest] Shrugs, not sure.  PM me. [/conflict of interest]

I try to be respectful and informed.

there are only two good investments involving bitcoin right now. Either buy Avalon or Buy Bitcoins - these are the only winning options at this current time.
The best option is to pre-order for 190 BTC by ASIC vaporware and return 15 BTC.

As you said in OP: it's not only about the money.

And in any case you will have a nice return.

So keep the damn things! Wink

I really hope you ment March 31st as April 31st is not a day that exists and is still 28 days away. The cleverly disguise April 31st as May 1st....

Yup, put 1st April, then edit fail on 31st March.  Roll Eyes

I would love it if BFL had a working ASIC to send us but I suspect 25GH/s (link below) may just be their old FPGA Mini Rig mining.
