[CLOSED]Minion Chip Assembly GB

[Airwhale]

I believe it is any intel style heatsink that can dissipate 120 watts of heat.

How do you figure that out from a specs sheet?

As near as I can tell,  you call the company's support line.

Are the first lot of chips on the way bobsag3

They were shipped out late Friday night from HK direct to Marto

EDIT: Keep an eye out on the OP, I will continue to add info and updates pretty much daily

[sorehammer]

cheers side question The shipping I paid for my x1's and comp psu i bought could that be transferred to the thermaltake modular psu you sell as I won't be getting a x1 shipped.

[kea808]

Hope there's a hosting option for 4 boards.

@bobsag3, Things are moving along nicely! Thanks for providing this service

I realise you are mad busy organising the group buy at the moment, so I'll just mention it here...

I would like to push my spare 4 chips onto @y_boonstra.

Is this possible and how/when should I do this?

Bob do we get confirmation on these actions some ppl took (shifting chips). So we can finish this financialy.?

Bobsag3, if we request a group buy assembly discount code, which exchange rate is used for the €4100 in my case for 25 boards, the bitpay one? Just to get an idea how much btc I need.

Can we use outstanding international shipping from the converted X3, and the paid extra X3 PSU, into store credit for atx psu's?

[sorehammer]

That's my concern also, paid 45 for psu and 69.99 for shipping my x1's asked to switch that to the $48 atx psu and have been told need a extra $20 to pay the maths don't add up.

Hey guys,

What do you think of this cooler, will it be able to shift enough heat?

Notice it only has 2 heat pipes:

[sorehammer]

I'm thinking these so as I can mount the board horizontal in a old pc chassis with all the bays removed.

Looks good don't worry about the 2 heatpipes cause the chip itself is very small.

I don't think it could shift 100W, you may have to run underclocked with that cooler.

Boxing it up would be required in a busy lived in environment, especially with cats/kids etc.

But it's better to leave it as open board in a safe unlived in area. Especially because TechnoBit board has a giant aluminium heatsink on its base, you want good clean airflow around that.

I have a small spare room with a window and I'm going to rack the 12 boards up on shelf rails, the shelfs wont be like book shelves, they will not have a solid board base, they will be pairs of horizontal rails onto which the boards are fastened for better air circulation.

Thanks, OK I will probably use some. But to dissipate 100W and keep the die "cool" takes a lot of cooler.

I may have to underclock on hot days , but can probably run 400 GH/s per board in the winter maybe, cheap electric heater even if it's not turning profit

[sorehammer]

that cooler can shift 95w and I have kids but with some extra fans blowing in from the front and fans exhausting and a decent amount of gap between the board and back I believe that stock intel cooler will be more than enough for my needs plus will allow for a clean loolk.

kids ... yeah box it!

The extra fans to force cool the whole box sounds like a good idea.

[sorehammer]

With kids around boxing is my only option got a 2 year old son who love my screw drivers

[sorehammer]

Don't have any dimensions for them yet have asked.

[sorehammer]

Bobsag3 when you get you samples can you let us know the board dimensions.

[Qeu]

Now that I have a discount code, where to apply it, I am stuck at technobit asking for shipping carrier and tracking #, and I can't find the boards/group buy at minersource?
