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?

OK, thanks, guess that has to wait till chips arrive at minersource from BA first 
Marto, do you have a pic of the base heatsink/fan that comes with the boards?

[AchrafB]

chips have already been transfered directly from BA to Marto ! you don't read anything that happens or what and with regard to informations about boards heatsink Marto has already make the effort to post pictures.. just stay tuned if ur really concerned

The OP mentions under 3. That all chips will go to minersource first, then from the USA to Bulgaria. The pictures you saw are not showing the base heatsink/fan that are mentioned in the product description at Technobit.eu, but the optional top heatsink/fan.

Is the cooler mount the same as a LGA775? Anyone found a good bulk deal for coolers?

Has one else seen the change on the technobit website?  It was 480GH/S a few days ago, now it's at 400GH/S.

480 was most likely over clocked the minion was stock 100 and 120 over clocked.

It was never 480 for sure

[sorehammer]

But potentially it could do 480 marto

Marto,

are you starting production this week? you got a lot of orders?
I guess so, i think a lot of ppl want to get out from BA (i for sure did).

[y_boonstra]

LOL i got an email from BA today confiming / asking the chip conversion..



Dear customer,

We have receive a request to send ##ASICs to Bulgaria in exchange of your order of ## Prospero X1. Please confirm that you do not want to receive anymore the X1 unit but you wish us to send instead ## ASICs. Also please specify the address where you want the ASICs to be sent.
We need your confirmation for the above in order to be able to apply the required changes.

There is still ## Prospero X1 to be shipped to you with full options. We should receive LCDs this week and the remaining miner should be delivered to you next week.

Thank you for your understanding!

Regards,
Black Arrow Team

[sorehammer]

Part of me wants to argue that they should still be refunding a element of postage costs if they're not still providing the compensation units. But given the epic clusterfuck blackarrow turned these orders into I'm not sure if we should just be grateful for what we're managing to eek out, late and differently specced. In fact, they should DEFINITELY do something regarding the postage costs.

Respect to Bobsag and Marto for hashing out some semblance of a deal that doesn't totally ask us to drop our pants and bend over, appreciated guys.

+1 Agreed,

We paid for shipping costs for the X1,s or X3's wich now they will be putting in their pockets!

Disregard the text in the emails from BA, they are canned responses. All you need to do is reply/respond saying you did authorize your chips to be converted, and you want them shipped to Technobit along with the rest of the chips for Minersource.

What about Minersource customers bobsag3

So have they been shipped yet or are they awaiting our response? I was part of the Batch #1 group buy.

Just wondering because the last update said they were already en route to Marto/Technobit.

Thanks!

Nothing for MS customers, as they assume me asking for it that I had the permission.
Chips should have been sent directly, I will have to check on it later.

[CryptoGuy]

I'm not quite clear as to what it costs to get the boards shipped to me. I assume I'll have to pay for shipping already. Do the 2 chips that cover assembly also cover the cost of the board, or do I have to pay for the board on top of the 2 chips? I'm only concerned with additional costs of getting the boards to me, not the cost of cooling and power.

[sorehammer]

1 board holds four chips you can pay for the board with 4 more chips but you have to pay for shipping in cash not chips
