.... My issue is that payment is only accepted in Bitcoin. I am aware there are many outlets through which one can purchase BTC, however, some people simply aren't all that comfortable doing so. Do you have any plans in the future for other payment options? ....
If you don't feel comfortable with BTC then don't invest anything into this project, or BTC at all. Buy some gold you can hide under the pillow. How can you expect the BTC economy to get bigger, if no-one feels 'comfortable with it'? My advise to you is, get the BTC now, so you can send them to JJ when he is ready and your chips arrived! You still have at least a couple of weeks lead time. Get comfortable with it!!! one4many Excuse me for simply asking a question about alternate payment options. No need to be rude... I certainly didn't feel my question came across that way.

It's cool man don't worry about it, I wish I had the capacity to accept other forms of payment but its just so much of a headache its not even worth it. Bitcoin is literally the best payment option period for merchants and consumers in every way. If you have a hard time getting Bitcoins contact me and I will help you to get some. -JJ

I have a great news!!!
form just figure out a way to handsolder chips on board. Unfortunately he run out of some parts but he should have them on Wednesday... So we will have 16 chip board soon.
Unfortunately the method can't be used on board that is already put together...
When you have some free time, I'd love to read some details on the method. I bought a "Surface Mount Soldering Practice Kit" at MakerFaire this past weekend, and will be trying some different techniques.

Hello everybody Lucko, after see picture and not seeing any marks on chips (eventually can by a photo problem…) I can ask if exists any strategy to deal with chip grades filling boards (if chips are labeled ) or we should expect a kind of “lottery”? Regards

It was already asked by me earlier. They are not marked and it is difficult to test them to grade them so it will be luck of the draw.

hi friends My regular UPS guy was out sick today so there was a substitute that knows nothing about delivering in this remote area. (just my luck) 09/25/2013 4:39 P.M. A correct street number is needed for delivery. UPS is attempting to obtain this information. / The address has been corrected. The delivery has been rescheduled.
I talked with the local UPS hub at length today and I will get the shipment of boards for sure tomorrow looks like we have to wait one more day :/ -JJ

Hi, Production Boards are in. As we suspected my assembly facility had no problems mounting the chips. Here is some eye candy... I will be mounting the cooling parts and loading firmware in a little bit, and will post pics when these bad boys are hashing away. If you are in North America you can place an order via PM, send email to jj@cointamination.com, or by placing a secure Bitcoin order at our website. Build times are 5 days, expect about 7 days for delivery from time of order. After your order is placed you will receive a .pdf of postage label of where to send chips along with your unique order number. talk soon -JJ

You have 4 chips in GB right? Do you have any extra chips or just those? And really without professional equipment it will be really hard to mount. We didn't setup 4 chip board price jet.

JJ & Lucko,
Congratulations to both of you on your project.
Forgive me if i missed this but how do the boards compensate/handle the variable performance per chip? Do all chips have to run at the same frequency?

No. Every chips can run at different. And you can have 4 different voltage for every of the 4 banks of chips...
And don't forget form when you congratulating... This board is his baby...
