FutureBit Apollo III - Next Gen Home Mining

[philipma1957]

Received is also.
New Apollo will be one of the best home miners once it's out!

Yea while waiting for our suppliers delays we have put in a lot of work on the firmware and have some serious gains on these. I was never expecting these ASICs to operate below 13w/TH but with some crazy optimization algos we have been able to get them to nearly 10w/TH at 8TH.

Quick shipment updated, we finally getting our thermal assemblies in on monday. Going to start slow assembly and testing ramp this week, but since we have 4th of July things are going to be slow until after the holiday.

Expect most early pre-order to be out by second week of July. Will do our best to get as many out as we can but with our order backlog will probably take end of July before all are shipped.

Its okay july 14th July 20th would be decent.

If it tweaks to 10 watts a then it will be the most effective unit i ever owned.

Very tempted.

I was expecting shipping to be more, so that's a plus.

Eagerly waiting on a few reviews, since it would be pretty neat if the specifications translate to real world. There might be cheaper options out there in terms of hobbyist miners, but I would've thought this is engineered to last a lot longer than those. I also like the idea of a integrated node.

Yeah I want to do a nice long review on it.

I am adding a 2tb Samsung that should cover the blockchain for a while.

I do have a 4tb Samsung which is absolutely overkill.

His gear tends to last. I have owned most all of them.

Just got a shipping update email! Looking good to hopefully get something out the door next week so hopefully I'll get my unit the week after; can't wait!

[philipma1957]

It is exciting. I will get mine also.

Plus I just got other gear to review.

[philipma1957]

maybe I get tracking this week. still waiting. not to complain, but I do want to compare it with the hammer miners I am

reviewing. Here is hoping it ships this upcoming week.
