No worries, good luck with it, it sounds messy, but I've read a dishwasher works wonders when you pull boards out.

So your plan is: Immerse 5 boards with passive finned blocks on chips in mineral oil and then have 2 pipes with pump leading to the tank. Pipes going through an auto radiator/fan?



About watercooling: if you buy square copper waterblocks, they are universal, can fit on any chip now and in the future. The blocks are the only difficult part. The rest is Vinyl tube -> solvent welded PVC pipe manifold -> rubber auto hose -> radiator/fan.

The is the route I will be taking (water cooling) for a few test boards

Bobsag,can you give us an update over on ecointalk,I need to deside what to do and it depends alot on when you are getting your units shipped. X-1s and I asked for a BA X-3 order to be transfered to MS but have not gotten a replly from,neither has MS as far as I know.

[y_boonstra]

Thomas and Bob,

I have confirmed my batch 1 chip conversion with BA through email (after they send me an email to confirm this) on the 14th, but considering their track record im a bit concerned..

Pretty much the same here. Looking forward to getting these guys in hand to start messing.

Are there holes so we can use standoffs to stack these somehow?

According to 2GOOD's pre-production review, the final models will have:
"Keep in mind that I have a pre-production unit, the final revision will have special holdings for the bottom fan and the 4 "legs" will be at the corners of the board with the option for stacking. Also the boards will be shipped with custom made (lower) stands to attach the CPU cooler."

Everyone who has PMed me the necessary information should have gotten a PM back from me accepting them.
Please note that if you PM me asking to be moved to chips, its final, and after the order has been converted I cannot convert it back.

When I spoke to you on the phone, you said to E-MAIL you my request to have my order for 3ea BA X-1's converted to chips, and that my order #2554 would be converted to chips and sent on to Marto at Technobit. I've not received confirmation and when I E-MAIL minersource, Thomas sends me a link to this Forum Topic which is fine if I was wanting to make the move today, but I'm hoping my "move" was made 3 weeks ago and I'm about to hear happy news from you and provide my CC info to finish off the deal. Can you give an "old fart" a little more support? On the phone I thought we had everything worked out and priced to fit my budget. Help? Please? This Forum stuff all seems to impersonal, but you've suspended telephone support?

Please confirm mine for batch 2

[me2014]

pls confirm that everything is ok with my batch 1 chips..I done everything u said to be done and now thomas sends me PM telling me that I diddnt confirm chip exchange to BA..I send him prnt screen with a proof which shows that I have sent confirmation(two weeks ago) and BA confirmed it by email too..now,I am asking thomas- is everything ok and no answer for two days..silence reminds me on BA so I want to check this because I dont want any complications few days before shipping..

[sorehammer]

So how we looking on this not had much info as of late just asking.

[thomas_s]

I only communicate information that is needed / that I don't have.

Sending multiple emails / PM's won't help any simply answer the question, thank you to the people who sent proof of confirmation with BA. We have gotten this taken care of.

I am no longer requesting technobit order #'s for Batch 1, there is one person that I sent emails to repeatedly with no response.

For any batch 2 customers when you receive an email or PM ONLY send the required information, I only look for the order# nothing else, no questions will be answered etc.


We are only handling the chips being sent to Technobit and confirming how many chips each person gets, support is not offered by Black Arrow for technobit boards, for Minersource customers we will provide limited support however major issues will need to be handled by Technobit.

You must make arrangements for shipping / payment with Technobit. If you would like your boards included with shipments to Minersource (USA) and reshipped from Colorado (cheaper shipping within the USA) make a note on your order. Otherwise select your shipping option with your order and complete payment.

When the boards arrive in Colorado, customers that requested them be shipped here will be contacted to pay for shipping (again shipping to Minersource must be told to Technobit not us).

If your chips were already sent to Marto / Technobit and confirmed he knows how many chips go with your order you would need to contact him or make a note to your Technobit account saying you would like to give / move x chips to another order or another customer. I have already given him the order #'s and number of chips sent per order.
