@SebastianJu i tested your 1.4V 450Mhz+ settings - the voltage regulator cuts out due to over-current that reduces hashrate A LOT. 1.350V seems a good voltage for 450mhz though.
So the lower watt usage is the result of the voltage regulator blocking the energy like a fuse to not being damaged? I now checked tracking for the 20 chips and saw they reached you.

burnin i saw this on your website "Grab the current firmware.hex file" Will that be updated with new firmwares? I think some kind of "Releases" or "Firmware" tab is needed in order to find it easier.

Keep us updated as to how many chips to order per board, anything to get away from Avalon and its practices.

Absolutely interested in these chips and boards, as the Avalon boards may never materialize due to lack of chips. Been watching Bitfury for quite some time, and really like their work. Please put me in your pre-order line for potential group buys of chips and your boards once they become available.

The amount of rebate burnin could give would change practically zero to ROI since his work is less than half the total cost. And burnin at the end wouldnt be rewarded. Doesnt sound like a solution to me. @Bogart... Check out this website: http://mining.thegenesisblock.com/ and keep sure you keep the starting of mining into account. Agreed. But what happens if the chips never arrive? I am in Zefir's batch 5, my Bitburners should be churning out coins as I write this, but I am not holding my breath that I will ever have a device given Avalon's random kind of business. What happens if the chips have not arrived by October? They are pretty much worthless by then.

Those are the BFL or Bitfury ones?
BitFury, and i will again be trying to push these chips further then the competition. Target is 5Ghash/s per chip or more.@SebastianJu i tested your 1.4V 450Mhz+ settings - the voltage regulator cuts out due to over-current that reduces hashrate A LOT. 1.350V seems a good voltage for 450mhz though. Hi Burnin, Aren't these chips rated at 2 Ghash/s and haven't they been tested (maybe) to get 2.7 Ghash/s? That sounds unbelievably high to shoot for 5Ghash/s. Wow... IAS

And thanks to some friends i will be doing a board for these too: That's great news! Now we need bitfury to put the raw chips back on sale and have you do your magic I am really excited about the fact that it is going to be an end-to-end EU DIY operation. No customs, no inter-continental shipping, no shady chip suppliers involved... Let's hope they have the chips back for sale sometime soon so we can get a group buy going... I think I can be of assistance with the shipping there, I can go pick the chips personally from their base of operations in Finland and bring the chips to the UPS office next to the airport to ensure they get shipped ASAP, that should probably save at least a day of shipping time if not more.

SebastianJu, feeling lucky to do a BitFury group buy? NO, NO, NO, NO, NO... Im not feeling like doing another preorder groupbuy. The time and stress is enormous. The next thing are the importing risks and so on. Plus i really doubt that the new chips will break even when they reached and are implemented in miners. The difficulty isnt only rising exponentially, the percentage of difficulty rise is rising exponentially too... and taking all the preorders into account im very sure a investment would yield negative returns. There are simply too much preorders going on. And the bitfury prices per GH arent so competitive that this would change i think. The amount of rebate burnin could give would change practically zero to ROI since his work is less than half the total cost. And burnin at the end wouldnt be rewarded. Doesnt sound like a solution to me. @Bogart... Check out this website: http://mining.thegenesisblock.com/ and keep sure you keep the starting of mining into account. Agreed. But what happens if the chips never arrive? I am in Zefir's batch 5, my Bitburners should be churning out coins as I write this, but I am not holding my breath that I will ever have a device given Avalon's random kind of business. What happens if the chips have not arrived by October? They are pretty much worthless by then. Sure, but burnin cant do much to change this. And only by hurting himself. I think i made a big investment and lost. Im still better to buy burnins boards and mine most of the coins back than not putting them into miners and lose the price of the chips. Merged Mining can help a bit though.
