Amazing work, that is a beautiful product. You should be applauded for how your efforts will help to distribute the overall network hashrate.
I would also like to second the thank you for increased communication from AM.
Next time anyone complains about GHash.io, I will link them to this project.
Seconded. Keep up the good work. |

We had AM_BE200_X24 boards sampled and tested. We also sampled the compatible heatsinks and supporting structures for them. It hashes at 768GH (each board 192GH) with 0.85-0.92W/G (PSU loss excluded). Power draws on higher/lower hashrate with higher/lower voltage is under testing. The design files of heatsinks/structures are going to be released a little later.  It should be emphasized that QUAD and X32 are also sampled and well tested before X24. That black strip on handles, is that a friction strip for stacking? I think you should make a batch of these. They'll sell out quickly.  |

That was my first thought; second thought was that I think I'd be clamping them together as well, just in case. |

My god it's beautiful.
Where do we buy them??
Also how many chips @ 192gh?
You can purchase chips and make this devices of your own. You can also buy from our customers who are going to produce according to this open source X24 design. Each board has 24 chips and hashes at 192gh at this setting. So the total is 192*4=768gh. The hash speed can be got higher or lower according to your voltage. Who do we contact to purchase reels of chips from ASICMiner? My company may be interested in this. |

Who do we contact to purchase reels of chips from ASICMiner? My company may be interested in this. Depends on the quantity. If you order enough, just contact friedcat directly (PM or fnnirvana@gmail.com I guess). Channels for smaller quantities don't seem to be established as of now. At least not apart from obscure Chinese marketplaces. Also go and try ask for sample chips! |

Very nice and exciting for the future to come! I'd love to work with a manufacturer and bring these to the US masses.
I'd love it if you'd do that ASAP.. First company to sell these for a decent price (~$1/gh) gets my money. |

I'd love it if you'd do that ASAP.. First company to sell these for a decent price (~$1/gh) gets my money. As would I! I will definitely be exercising all options that I have to make this happen. It's a bit harder seeing as most, if not all, manufacturers are outside of the states. We all have seen what happens when a US company tries to work with an overseas company and has a bad business and communication relationship (Don't need to point fingers). With that said, I would go at this a lot differently then the big companies only going after $. A smaller scale and most important realistic prices, service and expectations. I wouldn't offer what I cannot deliver (ha! How many times have people said that before?) but my track record speaks for itself now. Taking on more work that I can handle is something I will not do nor begin to do like a lot of these short-term money hungry companies have been. Enough about me. If anyone knows contributors who would like to speak, feel free to shoot them my way. We need a manufacturer who has enough money to afford a large enough order directly with AM. We could always default to the good ol' chips group buy done by a reputable member who'll then forward the chips to a (again, reputable) manufacturer. That's going to cut the price and lower all margins. |

The CAD of the mechanical design for X24 has been put in the repo: https://github.com/blockerupter/AM_TubeConcept picture:  Suggestions, modifications and brand new designs are all welcome. |

I would interconnect the four board's power requirements into a single pair of PCIe connections. I would injection mould or extrude a plastic clip to interlock the handles so they can be assembled into a matrix. |

That's going to cut the price and lower all margins. Would they use these chips if they can get something more powerful same price or lower? Just asking? Would they want to make something that required all that aluminum? Even Marto isn't selling boards now with all his new designs... guess chips cost too much to make a profit compared to Bitmain offerings. Guess that small fabricator is going out of business as well. |
