[Review]: Linzhi Phoenix - 2700 MH/s Ethash asic miner

[yxt]

General sales have not started yet. Only a few units have been shipped to evaluation customers.
Don't send scammers your coins! The official site is linzhi.io
The best for information is to follow their telegram - https://t.me/LinzhiCorp

Update January 31, 2021: General sales of the Linzhi Phoenix Ethash miner have not started and will not start for several weeks at least. All sites and groups claiming to sell or accept preorders for upcoming retail units are fraudulent.




Today I received a late, but very nice xmas surprise from linzhi for testing purpose.


Will update here after I have done some testing, waiting for DAG generation at the the moment.
Let me know your questions in the meantime...







EDIT1:
looks very good so far

Why would anyone buy an expensive door stopper?

What do you want to say?

exactly

[yxt]

Its unclear when a switch to POS will actually take place. You can ignore that topic...
let's stay with technical stuff

[maXonja]

This doorstopper has 4.4GB of video ram, right? That's pure technical stuff so POS or not, you won't ROI with this crap

[Atomicc]

Not available, yet . Only test units. Problems with stale shares. Specualtive price  

[yxt]

I will delete everything non-technical in the future.
I don't want to discuss ROI, thats a totally different topic


Yes, unfortunately only testing units, so I thought I share some infos with the forum
Setting a price now, with unclear shipping date, make no sense. I am glad they take the "we sell when we are happy with the miner" approach and not taking preorders...
I don't see/have any problems with stale shares etc (yet)
Where have you heard this?

[FloppyPurpleGherkin]

Can you confirm this has 4.4GB of (V)RAM available for the DAG?

Yes but the miner is useless in september, ram is not enough. So every Price is to high. Where we can see your hashrate in pool?
Why you get an sample? Please more information.
The webinterface looks very ugly.

[BitcoinPSU]

Dashboard states 5,62 Dags
But I highly doubt they would make such a powerful machine with such limited timeline

2500 MH/s is a really nice score btw!

I am the owner of a10 pro, I will follow your topic, it will be useful for many, and yes! It is not known when Ethereum will go to Pos

Well, if you look a clip from the link:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5301852.0

It says 7.98GBs for DAGs... So, how much video memory does this miner actually have?

[joaogti36]

daniel keep the tests going :-)
nevermind ppl complaining about the doorstoper

Real RAM for DAG in ASIC is 4.4 Gb. There are 2 hashing boards, each of them working with 7.98/2=3.99 Gb.

[btcshiner]

Are you running it in your house?

Can it be underclocked to run on a standard outlet in my spare bedroom or garage?

If the memory is 4.4gb can it be upgraded and will the manufacture provide an upgrade kit or firmware to expand memory?

Ease of set up?

Psu included?  PSU requirements?

Loud?

[VasilyS]

There is no possibility to upgrade. There are 2 special boards with 64 chips. Each of them has 72 Mb of memory. Some info about ASIC is here:

will answer the questions soon. I am very busy these days...
just a fast update now:

running latest fw since a day now:

Long-term totals:
Board 0:   119752.278 GH   in   25.17 h   =   1.322 GH/s
Board 1:   125550.484 GH   in   25.06 h   =   1.392 GH/s
Total   2.713 GH/s

Any word on pricing and availability?
