I'd like to thank cryptx for being so accommodating and getting my order sorted so fast.
Thanks, will probably buy in the future again.

Well BTC/USD is out of control right now. Just nuts.
I'd suggest you price the miners in USD/Euro instead.

Could be the quality of the power supply. Zefir reported even though 8 boards only pulled 750W from the wall with a meter he had to upgrade from a 850W supply to a larger one to get it stable @ 50GH per board. Perhaps some quick transient power spikes or something? Not really sure. Plus the power supplies are always most efficient at 50% load, and many PSUs are of questionable quality to begin with so really better safe than sorry!

Decent supplies like 80 Gold are usually at least 87-88% even close to 100% load (up to about 90% at 40-50%), though they do usually run the fan harder at the high end. 750 W isn't too bad for 8 boards but is still a lot more than the 50-75 W/board being advertised.

I could be wrong, but 83W for 50Gh works in my book when I compare it to my Saturn takes 68W to do the same amount of work, much better than my Avalons which take 500W for that amount of work or my BFL which takes 224W. From what I've read bitfury chips get really power hungry to get that last 20% of the speed...

+1 ...and what's about a special offer for people who bought just before the price reduction ?

Arrived today.
Lucky to get in before Bitcoins went nuts.
Btw, is there a different image for the Raspi around or is the listed one in the Installation guide still the best one?

I'm setting up the Raspi first. Fans were there and per fedex, yes. Wait a bit and I'll test the boards soon. Edit: According to the installation guide you need 2 jumpers (for J7 & J8) at both ends of the CAN-bus. I only got 2 jumpers supplied though. Not that much of a problem as I have a few around. How do you get Bitburner XXs and Furys to work on the same cgminer without them using the same settings?

Sounds like you need to change the driver with zadig first, I'm not getting any problems running them. Well, mostly anyway. Still looking for good settings. for one board you need also the can bus?

No, only use the can bus if you have +1 devices.

I have it. It works after i shutdown the PC / Fury completely... After cold start it works! With 115200:2:10:50:256 i get 34GH... Wondering because 2 is to low. I only used this for testing... EDIT: fixed, see: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=322129.msg3652799#msg3652799
