I am interested in ordering 1 unit, sign me up Smiley
I also would like to know which psu to order for it.

This is actually a valid question in this case.  Innosilicon has indicated they are not including a PSU with this miner in order to cut down the shipping cost.  So we do need to know what PSU they recommend for the A4.  I have sent that question to Innosilicon, but I have not heard back from them yet.

So the added cost of a PSU is not factored into the price we have been given for the A4.  Just a heads up.


Maybe it is better, that PSU is not included. Last time (A2 110Mhash miners) their PSUs were disaster. After short time half of them were dead. They put inside usually some black noname OEM 1000W PSUs, but was needed at least 1100W, better 1200W.
But not all 1200W PSU is possible to put inside, because some of these are longer than free place. I used OCZ 1250W. Important is 6 independent PCI-E cables (not splitted). It is possible also use CPU ATX4+4 to PCIE adapter cable. Also not all previous Innosilicon hashing boards had the same PCIE connector. Some version 6 pin, some 8pin, some 180degrees rotated...

Well yes I am new to the forum, as I usually only read it. Anything I could do to add credibility just let me know.
Anyway I am serious about being part of the group order, count me in for 1 unit.
I have been mining for a while, but i use other type of mining equipment so I didnt know the PSU was included, now I know, thank you

I have to say i am very disappointed with the final specs. Need more info before i decide to buy or not. Was looking at 2 or 3 but not sure now.
first news they accounced specs where much much better, better than knc titan. but 1000W per 260Mhs Huh thats worse than KNC TITAN (how old knc titan is!!!). very disappoiting
Um...
Its better than Titan, but not by much.
Titan: 1500w @ 350mh - 4.3w/mh
A4: 1000w @ 260mh - 3.84w/mh

The Titan W are at the wall, who knows if the A4 quote is at the wall, if not then it could end up being worse than the Titan.

Clueless!
Folk probably know tihs..but.....

1) Ask if the firmware is open source on git hub etc...does the unit us a PI to mine with ..and does it come with etc......point out the Gen Tarkin site to these A4 folk
   they might get excited to work with him or vice versa...show any A4 contacts his www page http://gentarkincustomtitan.pcriot.com/ a collaboration would be nice.

2) After the 45 day warranty....will the company be helpful with 3rd party repair and give info freely for folk to fix after the fact (ie Lightfoot and knc stuff as an example)
   show the A4 innsilicon folk Lightfoot's thread on here of fixes and re-do's of out of luck Titan parts etc https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/hacking-knc-titan-jupiter-neptune-miners-back-to-life-why-not-1283859


So in other words once you get this 45 day warranty product ...will the company allow/share/be helpful with folk like those above who may step forward and want to
continue development of the firmware and/or help with technical and hardware issues outside the companies 45 day warranty

Vertcoin stealthy master race.
Now this is the rig we've been waiting for. Especially with the fact that I only pay about $.04/Kwh electricity. Smiley

I don't want to commit myself, but I'm certainly going to give this unit some consideration.

are people really still mining?

LOL, if your rig is efficient enough you can still make some money mining.  Hence the interest in the A4.  Grin

well... i'm definitely interested in this.   I was on the litecointalk.org site all the time before it got hacked and became worthless.

I've got one of the uber expensive titans still mining..  Roll Eyes


Sweet!  The Titan has been the efficiency king.  How many A4's do you think you will want as part of this pre-order?  I am trying to keep a running tally of the people and interest.  Thanks.

Do you have plans to make smaller sets 50 MH/s - 150 MH/s ?

I am just an end user like most of the people here, but I will certainly ask about this.  I doubt it would be part of the pre-order first batch, but there may be follow-on models that come in both smaller and larger sizes.  That is just me speculating however and not a reflection on Innosilicon's intentions.

I am hoping they will join in our conversation here shortly to answer our questions, but I will be glad forward the question to them.

Interested but need more info.

if these things will not come with PSU's will they allow regular ATX PSU's to be used or will it need to be specially made PSU's like the A2 used?

I believe these are just ATX PSU's, but good questions.  We have not been given the specs yet on the PSU's needed for the A4.  That is something that we will want to ask them for sure.
