BFL board project COINTAMINATION - EU facility - ORDERS OPENED for Chili

[GrapeApe]

Wow,  Cointerra right here in Austin TX announced today that they are selling pre-orders for 1TH/S ($3499) January delivery. I have 8 chips in batch 2 and 8 in batch 3 (50% paid)  I would be willing to sell all 16 for 3.3 BTC  or 1.7 BTC for 8. Send me a pm if interested...

Edit: Nevermind I'm keeping my chips.

[JerimiahJohnson]

Just some food for thought...

No Offense but 1 th/s wont be jack shit come January. Just sayin'

Especially if knc ships 28nm ontime (October 15th), I have 2 th/s of avalon asics now, which to me is barely anything these days.

It's much smarter to get hashing sooner than later even on a smaller scale, the difficulty level is rising at record levels every difficulty change.

Also I wanted to note to people to keep updated on the cgminer thread,  the latest news is Bitfury devices wont be compatible for awhile, there is some issue there, I had the link but I lost it, if you look for it you can find the info.

We use the same micro controller and firmware as BFL - our devices will be compatible out of the box just like BFL's are, plus they will be available much sooner.

We will be ready as soon as BFL starts shipping chips which should be soon, they may be backlogged on devices but that takes assembly, the availability of other components and all sorts of other things that causes delays, chip shipments should be timely.

Just putting in my two cents

JJ,

I have June 22 chips order with BFL.  Expecting to get them around end of September.

Do you think you'll have a working 16 chip prototype board by then?

Thanks,

Sometimes forums aren't the best forum for communication my sentiment was of disappointment not excitement (after rereading my post I understand the assumption though). My thought was my 64 GH/s won't be much worth it but you are right about a bird in hand is better than two in the bush. So at the risk of looking fickle I am taking back the offer to sell my chips and sticking with the plan. At no point did I loose my faith in the cointamination project (this development has exceeded any promises and expectations). I am just getting very concerned about the rise in difficulty, 300,000,000 seemed so improbable to me a year ago but now I thinkit is right around the corner. Hell something like 135,000,000 is next...

I stand corrected next estimate at the moment is 110,000,000.

You are asking for dwdoc right?

The first day for orders was 6/10/13 (I ordered 6/11/13).  Delivery was suppose to occur 100 days later. 100 calendar days after 6/11 is 9/18/13.  I will keep you posted.

Seems somebody has some chips for sale on eBay.

Edit. The ebay seller is the carpet bagger.  at that price we could all sell on ebay and make a profit over hashing them. The thrill should be in the end product(bitcoins)

Just want to make sure people know I am not selling these. I live in Australia. Just thought some people might be interested. They do seem expensive though.

[Lucko]

Those are sample chips. Product chips were not yet send out so if they are A grade he was extremely lucky or buy a lot of chips. I would say he has no clue what grade they are...

[Mudbankkeith]

$4000 for 10 chips.
 
That would buy 2 completed 16 chip boards from Lucko's group, ready to hash, plus a psu, plus a nice big tip for the person willing to selling them.

If you read the sale details it is a standard mixed pack.

I do'nt object to anyone making a profit but................

Any update on the Cointamination board/mounting pricing?

$600 just isn't very cost effective for people who don't have 16 chips to mount.

Thanks.

Board with less then 13 chips will cost less... There are steps 1-4,5-8,9-12,13-16. They have less parts on it and power supply is expansive so it will show in price difference. And we didn't yet set the price since we are not yet 100% sure what is needed for cooling. We had some problems getting staff to Germany for form to test it...

Has anyone had their chips delivered yet?

Thanks for clarifying that Lucko.

Hopefully our chips make it through customs with greater ease than the board components.
