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

[goxed]

Ok,

        Which one of you guys sucked up all the H-Cards?  Couple of days ago they were aplenty. Out of stock now. Maybe Dave is just doing some adjusting. There were also a couple full kits available, pre-order now only.  Guess we will see how it washes out.

  All Hboards gone already for that price and btc gone up too.

There were 152 cards available, just a few hours back!!! OOS now.
Full rigs haves changed to pre-order .
Starter (8 were available)  kits are OOS.

One wild guess is that 100TH mine has scooped them up.

They must have gotten use to their aircon bills and wanted more.

Or it's irrational miners who see the exchange rate rising.

Dang, I was planning on buying another H board in a couple of days.

I was too. But, If I had those sitting in front of me with the rise in BTC/USD I am afraid I would have plugged them in and just mined with them. I am not saying Dave did this, but I would not blame him either. I'm just glad he dipped his toe in retail at all. MBP has been awesome to deal with from the very begining.

All you guys that got your setups/Mboards, how many screw holes are available for standoffs and what size are you using?

I'm measuring 600w to the power supply with a rig running at this rate.  PLEASE use two seperate PCIe power cables to power your rig.  Check cables for warmth - lets be safe folks!  Be careful trying to plug too many rigs into a single power circuit - 15 amps on a 15 amp breaker is NOT ok

The cards are very strong and so far very consistent.  There are still some EOL's and a few noisy cards too.

I really hope you are all really happy with these hot rigs!

Cheers,
Dave

Okay so i bought a 460W PSU as the mbp website STILL recommends to do so. https://megabigpower.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=53   (was purchased at the end of September before this announcement was made)

Can I simply buy a 2nd 400W psu and have both sets of pcie cables connect into this miner or is that not recommended?   At this point I would rather pay 15 dollars more for a 2nd psu than to shell out 60 or more for the sake of being able to utilize one plug outlet and one PSU.

You should not connect multiple power supplies together like that. Their voltage regulators will fight each other.

It is usually ok to plug multiple power supplies into graphics cards because they usually keep the various power inputs isolated, running each 12v input to separate core voltage regulators. But with these bitfury rigs, the inputs are connected directly together.

Dave has always been "retail".  I think he may have his own private mining venture but he has also been supplying ASIC gear to GHash.io and the 100-200Th/s Mine venture.  But I don't think he is directly involved with them other than selling equipment to them.

not recommended. if you need to shut down the system, powering off 2 psus simultaneously can present issues, especially if 1 unit backfeeds into the other. Your 460w psu is too weak, and almost certianly does not provide the full 460w on the 12v line alone. (probably 60w or more on 5v and 5-15w on the 3v)

at 400GH, the unit can run on about 350w (approx), but the units shipping are effectively optimized more so that they will do 600GH.

 I think you better off get one psu if something short will fry Hboards with 2 psu and if one of them not shutdown keep going that bad burn.

Guess That settles things  I hate last minute shopping like this!

FWIW, I picked up a Corsair TX 850 (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004MYFODS/) to power a full rig.

Hope it's enough !
