The giant is very easy to run.  I have one running on a small 550w PSU and it hardly ever kicks on the fan so these things are very easy to power.

[ayoungtech]

I'm still in for 2, pending shipping cost.

[DebitMe]

I would take 1, but i will only send payment to a baikal representative

do you want me to put you down for one?

I am an agent for Baikal however if you want to pay them directly that is fine

Cheers

yes I am in for one please

after you connect it with the 8 pin you just need to power up the psu right? can be connected to a whole gpu rig?

[Longsnowsm]

There are 2 8 pin connectors per board(only one needs to be connected), and there are 2 boards per Giant.  They show that you can use a 6 pin connector in the videos online instead of a 8 pin. 

So you will need 2 free pcie connectors from your PSU.  So in theory you could connect one of these up to a PSU in a GPU rig if you have the spare capacity.  I haven't tried it in that configuration.

yeah i have four 2 x 8 pin with my rm1000i, 3 are connected to six gpu, the last one in theory should be good for the giant

[IvanDog]

Good action! I agree! Put it on me + 1

Good earnings to all colleagues!

hey guys, contact Baikal on skype for shipping quotes, its roughly 150usd for 2 pieces for fast shipping

I am overwhelmed with shipping quote requests and i genuinely do not know what it costs,  but i do know that it is not super expensive

[bittawm]

23 units gone guys

[scavern]

Cool. I contacted Baikal - awaiting shipping quote from them.

They may have to extend this 48 hour nonsense though, if they want the sales that is...

[Longsnowsm]

I looks like they are going to go by the number of units and not the 48 hours thing...  At this rate they will have the 30 units sold today. 

[lenart_o]

[M1n0r]

dead right son, ive been watching these things for a while now, the roi is getting less and less instead of more and more

[scavern]

You should find out if they will give a lower price for every 10 increments, ie. if we hit 40 it is $1800

[Amph]

i want to know there is a switch to turn the mine on or off, or it simply turn on when you plug it?

also can you solo mine with it?

[scavern]

Judging by the images I have seen there isn't a switch, but someone who already owns one will have to verify this.

[scavern]

I'm curious to know how many people will be connecting this to a UPS or surge protector?
