HashFast announces specs for new ASIC: 400GH/s

[Bogart]

I see a red board and I want it painted black...

[Textplorer]

Bravo HashFast, bravo!
I´m impressed!

Black plastic gives it more GH/s than red.

Great update. Can you post some pictures of the production PCBs you had made in October back when you were still on track for late Oct delivery, before the substrate issue delayed everything for a couple months?

Sarcastic much? Lol . MrTeal, you are an EE right? What do you think their time frame is to produce those pcbs if they started today?

Just making the PCBs? Maybe a week. The volume they're talking about for the BabyJets isn't that great for the first batch so you could do it in less, but it get progressively more expensive. I can't say for certain what the minimum time would be, but I would imagine the minimum would be a couple days depending on the board complexity.

So substrates come monday. Gotta marry them to the silicon. PCBs another week. Testing another 1-2 weeks. Ship all that stuff to canada. Ship from canada to customers. Looking very tight for December 31 delivery.

Nice to hear!

Well, nice to hear back from HF. But still seems that they are going to ship the sierras at the same time as the BJs which is a nice deal to sierras owners and no so good for first batch BJs. Still without answer:

- When are the upgrade chips shipping ? They are included with the first batch ?
- How are they calculating the MPP ?
- Hosting notices ?

Please, if you are not going to offer a nice hosting let us know so we can organize ourselfs with enough time and we do not hurry in the last time to change the shipping adress

Thanks for the update.
Thanks for providing a picture of a 3D-printed model of the PCB, of which you released a rendering yesterday.
And thanks for the 25th of this month substrate delivery timeframe. I guess that we will have to wait till middle next week for the next update, tough?

+1

- When are the upgrade chips shipping ?

+1

[cleartime]

Great to hear that 

[Kouye]

This looks ready to ship.
I guess the first ones are already on their way.

Why are all the components on the PCB spray-painted black ? Does this make it hash faster and keep the components cooler ?

Which PC case manufacturer are you using for your enclosures, out of curiosity ?

[minternj]

Its a mock up unit. Better than a render, but says to me they don't even have PCBs made up yet. But hey its an update at least.

[dopamine]

So basically batch 1 users get screwed

It's painted black for stealth.  Like the stealth bomber.  The lid's off the case to reduce the radar signature

[cypherdoc]

interesting the speed of the airflow.  and that's even w/o the 2 exhaust fans at the back they had in their mockups.

looks good to me.

no one knows exactly for sure but i'm still hoping for last week October.

Welcome back!

Welcome back!

hoping is not a strategy.  and apparently not a guarantee!

i decided not to sell after i figured out i would be reconfiguring my 9 BJ's into 3 Sierra's.  it literally was a matter of space, the problem of which has been solved.
