Then its a mighty heafty price to pay for a X1 PSU ($ 50,- for the unit $ 60,- for shipping).

or can we just order an extra PSU, so it will be shipped with the other PSU's without having to pay extra shipping costs?
That option isnt currently available on the webstore

Can you get some info on the ATX PSU kit/solution?

I'd rather just have them tear out my PSU's since im going to run them off an ATX PSU anyway

We should be able to use a locally sourced PSU to power these boxes. I cant imagine having to buy one from them.

I am working with BA and the PCB designer directly to make something ala the Avalon PDU w/ the edge connector required for the X3. Please understand this will reduce your OC potential (1000-1300w ATX psu vs custom 1450w server PSU) and reliability, and will not fit in the case, requiring you to install the PSU externally like a KnC. Still working on the details of this, but I am confident we can get something together.

All compensation units and or power supplies will be shipped together if possible, but otherwise the PSU may need to be shipped separate and hence the separate shipping charge.

What about ordering 2 psus when I only have one X3 in order so I can split costs with a friend who has another order.

I just got confirmation.

ALL psus will be shipped separately, be it for normal X1/X3 or compensation, in order to reduce issues with weight related shipping (heavy PSU in one corner un balancing the box) and customs (not having to rip the miners open to check for compliance on the PSU).

Hope this makes it clear.

Do we need to pay extra for the separate shipping? I assume not for the original orders but what about compensation or new orders?

Shipping cost for PSU on original units is included, the compensation units have the separate charge for shipping on them to account for that.

How will they declare the costs on each packet for the costums now that they are shipping it seperate ? !!!!!1

Im pretty much done here for the day, I have DebitMe's list of questions mostly answered, going to get some food for the first time today, and I should be back later with more pictures and more info.

I would like knowing the size and spacing of the board holes for the heatsink as I am making my own cooling and will need to make retention clip too.

X1 or X3?

I know it's been said earlier but thank you for the service you are providing for us all!

i think its the same size, iff not they will need to produce 2 diffrent heatsinks wich will increase costs

I have an X3 but having both specs would be great.

[fivejonnyfive]

Oh, here's a question: How far away are we from seeing the X1? they said the cases arent ready but how far back are they?

1-2 weeks is the current estimate.

[heslo]

My heart aches

[btcminer84]

1-2 weeks is the current estimate.

What about the X3 (batch 1, paid in Nov/2013) and the X3 compensation unit, when I ordered via BlackArrow Website?

[ChuckBuck]

If bobsag3 says 1-2 weeks, that probably means June or mid-June for the X-1, since they're still working on the case for it.

Oh well, shit happens.  Never, ever doing pre-orders again.  Live and learn.

[tempestb]

Exciting stuff!

[tempestb]

This may have been answered before and I apologize if so.  Can I order the X3 compensation PSU from Minersource even if my original order is placed with Blackarrow?
