Fellow Bitcoiners, It has been a long road to get to this point but I am pleased to announce that the first 500Gh/s BFL units have been delivered and are happily hashing away as I type this. This is a huge milestone for BFL and shows their continued efforts to fulfill their promises to customers. http://kcmo2.gigamining.com/The picture above shows multiple FPGA minirigs along with 1 ASIC minirig. The rig will be up and down for the evening while conman works to get cgminer fine tuned with the new firmware. Best, James

What kind of cooling are you using for this room? How much power does each unit actually take?

12 tons of high powered dc hvac. How much power does each unit actually take?
Each 500Gh/s unit should be around 2,300 to 2,400 watts. We are going to take some measurements after we get some food.

500 GH/s? I will be seriously impressed with BFL if/when they are actually able to start shipping these bastards. Anyone selling in hand units? I'll pay 10% over your pre-order price.

That is amazing. BFL came through. 500 Gh/s!!! Can be run from a double pole 15A circuit. Very nice. "Came through"?! It was supposed to be 1500 GH/s @ 1500 watts in October '12. Now it's 500 GH/s at 2400 watts in June '13. They didn't "come through". They blew it.
