40GH/s and 70w per board!? Wow.
That means a full 16-board set should be able to do 640 GH/s at 1120w.
I have a 1250w power supply. I hope thats good enough
Maybe I'll aim for 37.5 GH/s per board and hopefully around 1000w
I'm pretty sure you can't run that much through 2x 6pin connectors. Good point! But you could spread those 16 H boards across two M boards. Ugh, I had an extra M board on order but I canceled it. The M board kit is $1300 with just 1 H board so it really isn't worth it. I'm on the verge of canceling my order. Bitfury from megabigbpower is showing the worst ROI right now, when compared to BitBurner, HashFast, and KNC, especially if a 16-board kit can only do 500 GH/s or so. It needs to be able to do 600 GH/s and arrive in the next week to justify it's $8k cost. I know that the chips are actually capable of doing 800 GH/s as my BitBurner with half the chips can do 400GH/s. The power regulator and cooling issues will limit it though, as for the fact there are only 2 6pin connectors. I'm guessing those two connectors limits it to 600w maybe? I cancelled my extra m-board as well. You could just hook extra power to the m-board but I have a feeling it doesn't work that way. Thinking of canceling my unshipped order if I do not get a ship notice tomorrow. There really is no RIO now at the price I paid. waiting until the final days efore shipping to cancel is a bit of a bold (dick) move. BFSB held up their august promise, and again is holding up their October promise. |

If it does not ship by when I want I will tell them I do not want it. |

I haven't seen a single poster claiming their order has shipped today.
Am I missing something?
Only 2 or 3 buyers got it. |

I think a lot of people will be waiting until next week when Dave gets the new V2 H boards and V3 M boards. I have some low order numbers but I think they'll be shipping me the new versions although I would gladly accepted old style H boards as part of my orders if I could have had them this week.

I hand it to Dave a BitFury for getting the August orders out the door when promised (most all). But since then
communication, follow up and product competitiveness have all fallen badly. This despite the fact he has 2 office people.
At this point it appears the GB's for the USB miners and the Drillbit System group have the upper hand in customer service and likely ship dates for those that want a more reasonable price and need to order now or have ordered in the past month or so.
I would love to pick up some H-Cards (at a reasonable price) to fill my V1.0 M board. But it sure does not look likely.

Received 4 H boards today. The H board have reduced no of decoupling caps and the value of Resistor in the divider is changed.

In English? FCUK? changed for the good or bad? can you overclock them? and how well if so? |

If it is the same as on EU version, the resistor is now 1.800, I was able to get it down to 1.720 (pencil mod). It took my full kit from 420 to 530 GHS. Some stable issues arise after few days, but putting heat sinks on back of regulators helped. |

I start getting loads of errors and vastly reduced hash rates with 4 or more H cards plugged in. |

the price right now is the same its been since august, because it would be entirely wrong and unethical to change the price for the october batch before all preorders are filled. once all the october kits and cards are shipped, i expect/hope we will see a drop to <2.5BTC/h-board with immediate availability. This would mesh well with the promise of 2.25BTC store credit on the delayed august stuff |

So it's prob smart to cancel Oct pre-order now and wait for November immediately available order?
