[ANN] Bitfury ASIC sales in EU and Europe

[MXRider]

- 365GH vs. 60GH.
- Silent vs. loud as fuck
- Waiting for 13 months after payment vs. waiting for one month after payment
- Both units are around $60/GH. Both use ~270W when mining. They are almost the same size.

MXRider: you forgot to mention, that you will need a computer next to the BFL junk to even start working.

Great comparison.

Here is my contribution to resolving the bet.

Some info and pictures of my units: 400GH unit and 25GH unit. Total hashrate ordered 425GH. They seem to be working better without fans.

This is what I got yesterday:



Power consumption is for 16 H-Boards.


I'm still tweaking my units manually. I'd say 380GH from 16 H-boards is possible.



Here is a picture from my pool. Hashrate estimate is based on the previous 45 minutes.
Both units are connected to worker "Bebber_1".

I have to say I wish I had gone bitfury in the first place.

These chips are at the moment my favourite on the market.  Great looking pcbs too.

If I wanted to run from a pc could I?

M-board has GPIO connector and two PCI-E 6-pin connectors so Raspberry Pi is the way to go.

Every piece of software can be updated. It's a normal RasPi so you can do whatever you want with it.

Just to satisfy my curiosity are they 256Mb or 512Mb Pi's ?

Thanks

My congratulations... Actually chips do not like when it is too cold and do not like when it is too hot - it is fine

Does anyone know what's the optimal temperature?

We're now going to celebrate with my team here a bit.. been amazingly busy week.

No it means next M-boards will be even better

Back at work already? I'm disappointed. For what you achieved, you and your team would have merited a massive two-day party-weekend + joint blackout and two-day hangover (optional) 

For the October milestone, which, I'm quite sure, will again surprise everybody in multiple positive ways, I will arrange a tip-jar for you guys, which will enable you to go on a 3-day wreak havoc feast. 

Cheers mate!

Well, I`ve decided to jump in on the Bitfury love in and will order soon .  Now I know these boards are totally legit and hashing .

Now, lets get a refund from Butterfly Labs.....

Hi,

can someone explain me something with the VAT? I placed an order an finnish VAT (24%) is added. The price rises extremely! If i ship to germany i have to pay for import the german VAT 19% on top. Really??

As far as i understand the system an EU-seller (outside germany) has to give me a price without VAT and at import into germany i need to pay german VAT.

Why did they add the finnish tax if i choose germany as target?

Thanks

1st no "border vat/customs" inside eu
2nd as private person you will pay vat % in the selling country to the selling country
3rd as a company you can provide your vat id and then get the goods without vat, as it is in eu, not even your own country tax.

[Trupik]

Indeed. You have to be VAT payer in your country. That means that you need to be registered with your local Tax Office and they must issue you with "VAT ID" (it consists of two letters with your country code and ten digits). You put this in the order form, then you will get rid of the sellers VAT.

ALERT!! ACHTUNG!! HUOMIO!!
We've spotted a minor (potentially major) security issue with the image that was distributed with the shipped units. The user pi and root both have some ssh credentials set. You should remove these so that no one can access your unit. (This should not be such big issue if you're behind NAT).

How to correct this:
- SSH into your Raspberry Pi with user pi (default password = raspberry)
- Type commands

Code:

sudo rm -rf .ssh
sudo rm -rf /root/.ssh
sudo reboot

[cscape]

- SSH into your Raspberry Pi with user pi (default password = raspberry)

And you should also change your default password, otherwise the unit can still be accessed.

What is the total width (from the edge of h-board to edge of the rPi's board?):

[FlyHigh]

Is a Raspberry Pi required for these to work?  Are any standalone units available?
