{BFL} Here's a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOK at your Monarch!

[Craige288]

I hope that's not the 700GH/s Monarch showing 270ish Watts of power.  It's got the same size fan as my 700 with the 450 being a much smaller fan and heatsink.  It's the 450 that produces that Wattage! The 700GH/s Monarch is pulling around 500-550 Watts.

Love the way they show it without the required power supply next to it!  Wouldn't look so good with all the wires all over the place. LOL

To be fair... Got both my Monarchs and the refund so congrats to BFL for actually doing what they said they would do...  As you can appreciate, there are many other ASIC manufacturers that have really crapped on the customers... I, unfortunately am one of them to a few companies and BFL has done me total justice compared to any of the other suppliers.

Obviously there is no possible way of making the amount of money that was planned but I'm happy that the loss has been reduced significantly.

P.S. Will never, ever, ever, ever pre-order ever, ever, ever again !!!  So sad... What a shame!!

That is a 700, and you are not reading it fully... 270 AND 210 = 480.  Or did you miss the second readout?

er..you kept two monarchs and got refunds on some others? is that what you ment

(refunds from BFL I got one back in may I think it was...the mind still boggles)

anyway good for you

myself I MAY pre-order again..but would have to be someone like www.spondoolies-tech.com with a proven HISTORY and then again
all their pre-orders are really about 6 weeks they make most in shop...but even at their timeline and prices it is a no brainer.....no home
miner can make it now imho...not even spondoolies which seems fairly agressive in price..not at these BTC rates

then again I ordered a Titan just before KNC went to the Dark Side and BFL'd itself.....FrankenJupiter's etc

$$$ corrupt is the lesson learned here

Be careful Searing...using BFL's name in that context will get you Inaba'ed   

He's raising a stink with Dogie about the poor rating he gave BFL 

Guess Joshy boi will try to buy Dogie out to get that rating upped 

   .!.. BFL & Joshy boi !!!!

take the money Dogie! (anyone that can get significant bucks out of BFL should do so)
we will make another thread and call it CATIE....and stick it to em anyway

I think Josh is a tool till I remember he has made probably millions on our mistake (ie see house) so WTF
crime pays I guess is the lesson here (all you have to do is show you are incompetent not criminal
seems to be the rule...look at Mark M from MT Gox ..he is hardly poor even now

as I said spondoolies is the only one I would consider doing a pre-order with and that is because they
DID let me out of an order for 6.5k and really to be fair did not have to refund me..I could prob broke
even and ROI barely ..I asked they said no problem....but it is probably a moot question in that
no home miner under these circumstances of difficulty and price dropping makes sense..it likely
is the last hurrah for home miners

He tried blackmailing him with faux ratings so I guess a bribe is next... maybe they can just BUY OUT Dogie's account. They have done it before.

How 'bout with [ DO NOT POST SESC LINKS ]ignore[/url]?

100% foolproof troll spray. Worked for me.

[JoshsAssIsFucked]

So even after been proven right on all I said for 2 years, you still think your all awesome and fool proof.

Keep it up sheep, your doing your masters proud!

It's fun to see a post like this as I got a second hand Monarch today for a few hundred €. I just had to buy it no matter what. I'm on the same boat with f***ing  Slok with my problems with bfgminer.

I feel a bit dirty mining with it after all this fuss. It's a like driving a car previously owned by Saddam Hussein or something. But I like it. It feels like being part of history in the making. Like buying a DeLorean just when the company goes bust.

On a more serious note it seems to be running fine with the custom bfgminer provided by BFL. 600GH, 1% rejects and 3.5% HWE. Much much quieter than an Antminer S3 as the fan noise is just mild hum and not booming and whining like Antminer S1's and S3's.

I wouldn't.

It's more like buying Bernie Madoff's socks. Nobody really wants to frame them and hang that on a wall.

I'd hang Josh Z's soiled underwear on a wall if the frame was hermetically sealed
