cant even run turbo max with my bought EVGA 1300 G2, 1300watt.
How the hell should it work with this one of 1000watt.
They are trying to skip the refund,
and push a PSU towards me, for which I didnt ask for it.
U-N-B-E-L-I-E-V-A-B-L-E
Maybe they just try to help. Really, this could be the case!
Like when they try to help you save energy costs by making the turbo-mode unusable.
Like when they help you get rid of your hardware soon because of the not working power-save mode.
Like when they ship hardware instead of processing the refund.
Like when they don't refund people in a timely manner according to the ToS.
Like when they... wait - that doesn't help at all (oh, it may help Bitmine...).
But yet they could at least try to explain their behaviour!
And in my opinion the worst part is the missing or misleading communication.
It's bad that you need a swiss lawyer for effectively getting them at their asses.
It could be so much easier... But if that's the way that needs to be walked...
Don't be afraid of visiting a local lawyer to get assistance. This will cost extra and you will not be able to get the bills of both lawyers paid by Bitmine.
And it will for sure help to spot a swiss miner that shall be involved before you visit your lawyer.
This is off-topic, but interesting. Treat the following paragraph with extreme caution. It is not intended to make you do business with that company. The intention is - and just for the record - to show
how other companies communiate and try to handle their mess:
http://zeusminer.com/2014/05/07/progress-update-20140507/Disclaimer: it's not yet clear if they ship at all or not. It might be a complete scam.
But at least they communicate appropriately and promise to stick to their agreements.
The chips don't perform as expected? Hell, they put more of them on the boards where possible or ship addidional modules - at least that is what they announced. This is what keeps people calm. This is what helps you get a ship through troubled water.
They try to save their reputation because they know it's crucial for future business.
...or they just want to scam more people. I don't know. But I do care about their way of providing customers (or those who consider becoming one) with information!
As far as I remember the first guess for the CoinFAIL A1 hash rate was 20 GH/s. I just checked it: I remember correctly:
http://bitmine.ch/coinFAIL-a1-datasheet-specifications-released/ Then it turned out that it is capable of so much more. Hooray, what a party - for Bitmine
They announced full-bodied
"The nominal hashing power is 25 GH/s and not 20 GH/s as initially announced, this is due to some last minute optimizations that have been made with the design, a free 25% increase!"A free 25% increase for Bitmine when calculating the required chips per module... because they reduced the number of chips per 200 GH/s module from 10 to 8.
Now we have the mess.
Turbo-mode not working properly.
Power-save-mode not working properly.
Communication (I'm not talking of the miner right now) not working properly.
Everything is broken by design.
Dafuq!
This was completely f*cked up by Bitmine not communicating transparently and reliably. Sad, but true. This ship is sinking (or already sunken). I wonder what happens in case of delayed filing of insolvency. Most likely prison if they get sentenced.
