"€8,950 + VAT + shipping" But... why nonzero shipping if at the top of the page is written "Get free shipping on all orders over €1000!"?
I'm sorry, you're right! This beast costs a lot to ship ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) It'll be coming out of my margin, but it's not my style to change policy..

punin I think you should post a new thread for Razz. This one is mostly only followed by existing customers.

6 of my 16 bitfury v1.2 H-CARD died over the time. October 2013 batch. no overclocking and no overheating! did someone face the same experience??
EDIT: seems to me quality of the bitfury v1.2 H-CARD (October 2013 batch) is not good enough to work with it 24/7 for a half year. some component on the card died. cards did not work again if I changed the slot on the bitfury v2.3 M-CARD.

I have 10 v1.2 cards from October 2013. One died right from the beginning and Punin replaced it right away. Rest of them works fine to this day, hashing 24/7. The weak point is the wobbly ISA-style connector (which they changed in later versions). After each moving of the miner I had to fiddle with the cards to get a stable performance back. I suppose that poor connection with the cards may have accelerated the demise of your hardware. What about the warranty? Did you contact Punin to replace failed cards?

Did you contact Punin to replace failed cards? in my case it is not the connector between M-CARD and H-CARD's because I did not move it arround and the cards are within a case. the H-CARD's start dying from the end of the M-CARD. slot F, E, D, C, B, A. in this order. I'm fear that this is not the end. my assumption it is connected somehow with the power supply component on the H-CARD's. the cards itself has no visual sign of damage. will contact the support. they have now a ticket system. will give update about this here in the future.

The feedback on our rev2 engineering chips has been positive so we're ready to go into sales of production chips. Our first production batch is rolling off the line as I write this. These are going to be TESTED CHIPS. I should receive the first batch in the coming week, so be ready to grab some GH at amazing prices!! DIY FTW! 3.85GH/s already achieved, how much will you be able so squeeze out? I see you have trays of rev2 chips on the site now - are the chips in those the tested ones?

I'm sorry to say this, mostly because you did a really good work back then when you started sales of bitfury starter kit and all, but this offer is just not good enough :/

Hi I see the new rev 2 chips are pin compatible with the original chips, does this mean they are a drop in replacement which can be used on existing boards ?

Yes, they are exactly the same chip with fixed bugs from rev 1

Yes, they are exactly the same chip with fixed bugs from rev 1 Actually that's incorrect. The new chip has more cores than rev 1 had (864 vs 756). New chips are pin compatible with old ones. Basically they're a drop in replacement, but depending on your design some resistors values might need tweaking.

Is there a data sheet available for the new chips, so i can see what may need changing as after some looking i cannot find one ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif)

dunno - I was about to solder it on the board when I saw that it looked somewhat different ... timely catch though ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) (and as my luck would have it - that's exactly 3 of the very few pins that are absolutely a must)

It's not worth it, but if you want to play with it - provide ~1.5V to VDD, which should provide power to IOVDD via the internal protection diode and as your inputs are intact you may be able to communicate with the chip ... not sure if it will work and you may need to add some pull-up resistors, but you may be lucky to have a hashing zombie or FrankenFury ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif)
