Hi everyone, I just want to warn you all that Bitcoinrigs.org is a rip off company.

I'll start off by saying that after threatening and complaining to this guy, I did receive my unit, almost two weeks late.

1) He created bogus tracking numbers to pretend that he'd shipped the unit. He didn't ship the unit for nearly two weeks later (after numerous threats and complaints) and then sent updated, or real tracking numbers at that time.
2) The unit I received began to fail immediately and the owner of the company has refused to respond.
3) These units are guaranteed at 32Gh/s, and mine won't even run with all 6 cards in it, and additionally it's never once overclocked with all 6 cards. My machine only runs with 5 cards, and will only overclock with 4 cards.
4) The fan went out after 3 days.
5) The guy linked me to the wrong power supply that wasn't near strong enough to power the unit, waisting several additional days - I bought the PSU 2 weeks before the unit got here.
6) I've used no less than 6 PSU's, from the Corsair TX850, to Fractal Design 1000w Platinum, to Thermaltake 850 Gold, to Corsair CX 650, to Rosewill 650 gold, etc. All of them have the same results.
7) All the reviews on his site are positive - that's because he approves all comments and only approves positive ones. There are no comments about how he's defrauded people, nor the 1 star reviews. Another customer recently told me that he ripped them off too, and they had to go through bitpay to get their coins back - nearly $4k worth.
8.) It's a new company, his business address is masked on WhoIS. There's no phone number. The address on the box (once it came - weeks late) is a UPS store: 3434 Edwards Mill Rd., STE 112-138 Raleigh, NC 27612 - https://maps.google.com/maps?oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&q=3434+Edwards+Mill+Rd.,+STE+112-138+Raleigh,+NC+27612&ie=UTF-8&hq=&hnear=0x89acf687e1a68c27:0x49623e0b0fcec5f7,3434+Edwards+Mill+Rd+%23112,+Raleigh,+NC+27612&gl=us&ei=qujWUu-YJdLzoATK-4HICQ&ved=0CCoQ8gEwAA

The owner of the company is a liar, a poor businessman, a rip off and a scammer. His business location is a UPS store.

BE WARNED to NEVER DO BUSINESS WITH THIS INDIVIDUAL!
