Anyone (FC/bitquan/dogie/CanaryInTheMine ) making a video showing the box-to-boot from parts for the AM Tube ? As the saying goes: 'a picture is worth one thousand words'; a video could help show the relationship (and quantity) of components and the 'beauty' of the design and so help some buyers estimate the assembly cost/time.
The assembly could include references to the handy tools and extras (thermal paste? non slip pads/tape for the front/back panels, screws, fan grill for the pretty version?, typical PSU) that could or would be needed but are not for sold by AM as part of the package.
Yeah I could probably do that now, just tear down this unit. Its as simple as can be to assemble, normal flathead screwdriver will do almost everything unless something changes. Might be better waiting for the 'retail' kit though so I know exactly what is being included.

Such move. As a cat, really. ^^

Anyone wanting to buy in bulk can still save a bit and buy direct though.

So it looks like you only need to connect one set of PCIe connectors to mine then? Is there an instance where all 8 would be needed?

Unless the specs have changed, I believe they can be overclocked. I'm assuming they probably get hot on higher clock settings so you would need good airflow

I'm assuming they probably get hot on higher clock settings so you would need good airflow At stock its 220 or so W per PCI-E, OC'ed (which they do amazingly well) you're looking at 250W. Both those numbers are pushing* it for a single PCI-E cable, and its definitely a nono trying to power two miner boards from one non high gauge cable branch. *I know we did it for the S1s, but this is starting out way past even the top end of S1s.

doggie says it's very quiet... I turned everything else off during a maintenance and okay, its less quiet than I thought, but its still very quiet. Its constant RPM as far as I can tell (40C same sound as 20C) and is extremely reasonable. I'd have these in a living room or bedroom noise wise.
