CoinTerra announces its first ASIC - Hash-Rate greater than 500 GH/s

[Korbman]

New firmware posted today. Has anybody tried it?

Applied about 30 minutes ago, and so far so good. They changed the interface and stats page a little (nothing major, just how the GH/s is presented).

Hash rate is at 1.4TH/s (power step '7'), which is more or less what it was at before...I'll give it a couple hours and check back to see if it stabilized any higher. If it looks good, I'll probably try stepping up the power a bit to see if I can get one or more of the cores to go offline like before (power step '8' and above triggered it for me).

Can anyone help me with my terraminer? It randomly stopped working and idk why. fans still turn on, but not mining, can't connect to the control panel, and it's not connecting to the internet.

It all started when Ghash.IO went down for about 20 minutes this early morning.

Have you tried powering it off and letting it sit for about couple minutes and then plug in power to socket 1 first and into socket 2 within 5 seconds of plug in of socket 1.

I tried that ~15 times, I tried to reset it, tried factory resetting it, etc.

But then I unplugged and plugged my rig back in and it started working again... I don't know why the last 15 times I did that it didn't work... Still trying to contact customer support.

I applied it and the stats page looks a bit different, not much though. I'm at power step 9 and getting 1,607 Gh/s. Although the pool (ghash.io) is reporting anywhere from 1.3 th/s to 1.85 gh/s... just like before.

Same here no change in Hashrate,  at 1.6 , I do get less HW error , I'm getting the feeling that these units will never do 2Th/s (at least with the ver of PCB that Batch 1,2 and 3 got)

There are a lot of cgminer fixes and stability improvements with the latest firmware. The hashrate demonstrated should match the pool now, and there are far more useful stats in the advanced->stats tab. I worked with them on coordinating the cgminer updates.

No, I doubt you'll ever see more than 1.6TH out of these devices, but I have nothing to do with that aspect.

You are lucky.  My hashrate dropped ~30% after the upgrade as reported by the pool.  Looks like they dropped the temp threshold about  7 degrees celcius.  Result, my CoinTerra throttles now even in a cooled operating environment.  I've downgraded to the old firmware and am extremely displeased with my dealings with CoinTerra.  At least BFL compensated people.  I can't even get a response from CoinTerra and although I was promised coupons originally for the delay after they failed to meet their own hashrate/timeline and refused to honor their hashrate compensation promise (no way I'd actually order another product from them), I've to this day received no response, no compensation, no apology.  Just silence.

That would be the most appropriate way for Cointerra to compensate buyers for loss of hashrate and increased power consumption.

Bro, they still continue to advertise and sell the product as 2TH/s.

If anyone expects anything except getting shafted by them, I will have a very good laugh about it.

so glad The Pros showed up!!

now we have the adults into mining and... blah blah

There are a lot of cgminer fixes and stability improvements with the latest firmware.

Is there any possibility that something was changed that would affect p2pool performance? Take the following graph:

Nevermind the gaps, they're all accounted for. The large gap in the middle was the testing of 0.7.6 on a pool with great results - ~1.58 TH/s pool-side. Moving over to p2pool, I got bad results, so I switched it back to 0.6.48 after a confirming the ~12 hours of poor results. Is anyone else observing this, or is this likely some configuration problem on my end?

Same here. I've to downgrade to 0.6.48, cause with 0.7.6 hashrate is about 10% lower, at least on P2Pool.

Good to know I'm not crazy. Thanks for your feedback. Con did mainly aesthetic hashrate reporting changes as far as I could see, but it was a very superficial look.

[CurcO]

Same here the newer FW is buggy less hashrate and also the temp threshold is lower per chip which now is the AC room causes 1 board to stop working , downgraded to 6.48 and things are not faster but stable

Whats the current Refund-Situation at Cointerra?

[davepsilon]

Whats the current Refund-Situation at Cointerra?

It is the same deal for April batches.  They have a new board revision that will apparently bring the hashrate up, but this would be for the May batch at the earliest.

Did anybody actually get a refund?  I've been reading horror stories about it taking over a month for a refund and with the news that the April batch isn't going to hit 2Thash it makes no sense to keep my order (there's cheaper hardware out there and the price of BTC keeps dropping so I'm not sure I can ever ROI with this batch).

same boat bruh, they almost threw a refund at me when i asked for an April update.

now im starting to think its the only choice that makes any sense... but then hardware in 2 weeks sounds so tempting...even hardware that only runs at 75% its original power....

some communication from CT would be nice

[ImI]

i asked for a refund. lets see whats next.

the webshop says order "processing", so maybe its already too late.

I bought 3 units but decided to ask for a refund as soon as the performance specs came out.  It took 30 days (which they stated was the limit at the beginning).  To their credit, they did come through
