I really hope someone constructs a little cheap Bitfury powered ASIC, c'mon let us "less fortunate" people get some proper stuff! Im sick of running my screaming gpus for ~1gh
Intron is designing a two-chip USB miner - he posted on Bitfury's thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=228677.0Surely someone will make these when the design is done... direct msg link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=228677.msg2859481#msg2859481"bi•fury now, a dual bitfury USB device." "Very early stage though, no idea yet if we will get it hashing:) intron" QG |
Bitcoin is at the tippity top of the mountain...but it's really only half way up..  |

Before anybody mortgages their house on more boards or cancels their super secret OC board project...you can only tweak clock rate in software by about 3% and it costs you a lot of wattage...
 any chance of component tweaks between the august/october kits that might improve the situation? you know, lessons learned, etc.. |

Surely if we find issues with the current design, we'd consider making some changes. At this point I'm not aware of any intention to add OC features. With 16 boards in a rig, the rPi is using about 40% of its capacity, so its not overstressed either. Maybe we will integrate some fan power... |

So how are the boards going? Any shipped from the fab? Received any for the 100TH yet? Tested any of the production boards? Any news for us?
A fan power connector or three on the M-board would not be a bad idea....

I don't think anyone has asked this yet. the starter kit comes with a raspbery Pi, are you just running regular software on that, like cgminer? or, is it running something proprietary? Can the MBs be connected to a regular PC via usb?

There is not USB. Connecting to RPi and using GPIO connector for SPIO protocol.

Nothing proprietary just cgminer but it uses a SPI interface. You would probably need some kind of SPI controler for PC.... |

What's the warranty on this? I didn't see any details on the site, and I tried reading through 9 pages of discussion to find something

I'll be posting our T&C on the site soon - basically refund policy is 100% refund, warranty is 60 days manufacturer defect, replacement. BTC refunds are done based on USD value NOT BTC-BTC. I don't support transferring orders. Cheers, Dave |

The rPi is it's own self contained computer, should be able to plug it into an ethernet port and ride the hashtrain |

Guys I came down with the flu, so I might not be as quick to respond for a couple days. Hopefully Yvonne and Kat can help!
I'll stay tuned in...
