been waiting on bitfury prices to get reasonable for a month now.... finally got tired of waiting and spent $2500 on equip from someone else... id be willing to buy a 25ghs starter kit if they would list one...
Will you people please stop buying bitfury overpriced miners? Maybe that will stop the bitfury private ASIC farm from growing more and more. I bet for every miner sold they are adding 4-8 or maybe more miners to their own private farm. maybe you should tell miners not to mining at Ghash that too big..

0.47BTC H-Card, time to buy This...the price drop is appreciated. Cheaper (by about a third) than AntMiner, and more power-efficient. Please explain how you arrive at this conclusion. Bitfury 200GH set is $3200 = 3.9 BTC at current coinbase $822/btc Antminer 180GH is 3 BTCBoth shipping now. How is bitfury 1/3 cheaper than antminer? Bitfury is more power efficient - that is understood, but i dont understand why you think bitfury is 1/3 cheaper.

Bitfury is more power efficient - that is understood, but i dont understand why you think bitfury is 1/3 cheaper. New price is actually 2.65 When I first read this, I thought you were saying that the price of a 200 GH Bitfury rig was 2.65 BTC and I was ready to order a couple. Upon further review, you were talking about the Antminer, and they are currently out of stock. I really want to order a 400 GH Bitfury rig, but just can't make the numbers work. At over 8 BTC for 400 GH, I keep coming up with a ROI time of infinity... Do BitFury rigs overclock well? Is it reasonable to expect 500 GH? Are they reliable? I read a good number of horror stories on this thread from folks who had a lot of trouble getting all 16 boards to work correctly due to board wobble and poor connections. Does the SD card still get corrupted when the machine is powered off?

Do not expect more than 400. The systems are quite stable, but there is a lot of variance in each card's performance.

My v1 m-board/h-cards are running at 505gh/s. I'm not sure if I was just lucky or not though so I would base all ROI on 400gh/s just to be safe. A lot of people posted about corrupted SD cards, but I have not ever had this problem either. I have lost power 2 times (once my house almost burnt down... damn power line falling and starting neighbors shed on fire) since I had this v1 bitfury and my SD card handled it like a champ. Same with my other SD card on my RPi for other mining devices. Knocks on wood that they keep lasting like champs and that no more power lines fall close to my house and start stuff on fire

Yes, yes (510-515), and yes. To prevent wobble order a really nice case from spotswood: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=267713.0The newer kits have the v3 m-board with newer chain miner software, which includes a proper shutdown button on the web interface. Otherwise ssh into the device and issue a 'sudo halt' to cleanly shutdown the RPi. No corruption.

V1 H boards, V2 M board Ordered an 8 board miner yesterday and it's being delivered tomorrow. That's how the world is suppose to work!

I have had mine going at 620 stable for weeks now. The cards are good they just need some attention to get them happy.
