[ANN] US/North American Bitfury sales NEW STOCK ***NOW SHIPPING***

[jspielberg]

I believe ghash.io is using bitfury's own designed miners and not those developed by c-scape for tytus (i.e. 100TH mine, BFSB and MBP projects).

Likely yes. Bitfury already has a big farm with hundreds of FPGA's, so he propably designed a new board that fits into old place and replaced those FPGA's.

Hmm, sent Yvonne email last Thursday regarding UPS shipping label and no replies yet.
Has anyone gotten answers on whether we can get Dave a prepaid UPS label for overnight?

Thanks

Thank you for your hard work and update. I don't see a problem the way you handle this, you guys are already outstanding compared to your competition and keep surprising me
How short of hasrate are we? And what happens to the starter kits I wonder?

Starter kits benefit the most, as we are putting 2 H-cards in until we have achieved sustained noncerate (useful nonces) of over 25GH/s on one card.

Oh - I'm really excited now.  Will you be doing the same, Dave?

And full kit orders get 2 kits then?

[AsicShill]

And full kit orders get 2 kits then?

Unlikely... Full kits will most likely get an extra M and enough H-boards to meet the spec advertised --- 400 GH/s.  I think Dave and crew have found a use for the "partially functioning" boards -- to top up people hashrate to the posted level.

[Mobius]

What is the actual Gh rate for each H board as it will be shipping?

[jspielberg]

I don't think the slower boards specs have been stated.

I think the Starter kits benefiting the most comes from the European store's owner punin's post:

Has anyone else had trouble (no response) when requesting a refund from sales@megabigpower.com ??

[americandesi]

Dave..

Can you confirm any of these as to how it will be handled in case of US customers.

Also PUNIN says that they started shipping the EU orders. Any update on US starter kits.?

Just to throw another data point into the ring, I ordered some bare chips yesterday morning, and I just got a priority mail tracking number.  Thanks Dave and Yvonne for prompt service; I'm glad you guys are holding up a reasonable business ethic in this crazy marketplace

Please resend and copy me (dave@megabigpower.com) and Kat (accounts@megabigpower.com)

Thanks!

Also FYI all: its better to request a refund via email, rather than do a return on the website - returns are for when you actually have the hardware in hand and want to send it back.

Can you just provide your UPS account number to us?  If not, I'm sure we can arrange a shipping label.

I sent it to your email about an hour ago. Thanks!

So here's the status guys:

Niko's new guy in China is very fast.  Niko's already got boards and has shipped a few.  They have also got the v2 M-board working, but I haven't produced any for August shipment.  

I've got tracking numbers in hand for the first shipments of M's and H's - about 15 full rigs worth.  More will ship each day as they are made.  Probably much larger quantities on the next shipments.  We are also balancing production with Niko's guy, since we are very happy with the turnaround time.  According to FedEx, I should be receiving first boards on 8/29 - we shall see about that.

Niko is also seeing some under-performing cards compared to what Tytus was seeing with his test rig.  This could be due to the chips (different wafer, different packager, etc).  It could be due to the v2 M-board, different PCB manufacturer, components, software changes,  etc.  The testing process is time consuming because we must run the boards long enough to get good data - they have to warm up and run for a few hours, then get tuned.

We are committed to shipping the promised hashrate, so you will receive a tested rig that can produce what we claim.  If that means we add in extra cards then that's what we will do.  For full rig owners, if your rig is coming up short we will send an extra M-board + H-boards until we reach the advertised 400GH/s rate.

If shipments arrive on time, the testing & shipping process will run straight through the holiday weekend until everything is out the door.  We may lose a shipping day due to Labor Day (Monday, Sept. 2nd), but the team will be working.

Cheers,
Dave
