It's been up and down numerous times as I've been chipping away at the code to make it work at its theoretical maximum 480GH.

It's mostly working now. Here's what I've got:

Note the hardware error count may appear very high, but bear in mind that it's mining at diff 500

That's just too hot, 86C degree??? Delta fans needed Cool

it may not be accurate because there are a lot of units in that room heating up the room temp so who knows what it would when you have it

Considering it just started.. notice the share count.. thats pretty damn hot.

Ok, so one customer got a single.

And one customer got 1/3rd of a mini-rig.

While that is still not what we all want ... it IS a start.

And hopefully BFL can ramp up from here and finally give us our orders!!

At least BFL customers are wising up..

I will buy it right now for 100.000 BitBar! I hear they are worth 7 BTC each and come with Scrypt FPGA so what do you say? Roll Eyes

i hope ppl dont go preordering for minirigs these are big tickets for bfl just what they want. I would buy drom ebay at 10th of price.

They probably make more profit on the Jalapeno than this things per chip.

500 GH/s? I will be seriously impressed with BFL if/when they are actually able to start shipping these bastards.

Anyone selling in hand units? I'll pay 10% over your pre-order price. Grin

no one is gonna sell you theirs... so make one, get involved: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-first-500ghs-bfl-unit-up-and-running-237710

Maybe they don't have enough ventilation for the mini-rig, single should be much better cooled

I just did days of extensive search for a quiet but powerful 120MM fan, so far Gentle Typhoon AP15 1850 RPM seems work best for cooling this kind of heat sinks

If it was mine I would take it apart and let it breathe. Temps over 50C bug me, I can't imagine letting it suffocate at 80C plus continuously. Obviously they're pushing the limits of thermal design for that housing. Using punched/cut vents also hurts airflow pretty bad. A standard wire ring fan vent would probably double the airflow going through that thing.

Well. They exist.
That is much better than yesterday (and the preceding 12 months).

Am I wrong or am I right?

I guess we will wait and see, however they also shipped their first Single... to one person.

They also now shipped their first mini rig... to one person.

Lets see if they can deliver multiple units to different customers, not puppets they delivered to and requested they post a review on the forums (like the first single receiver admitted to and like gigaVPS was requested to do by assumption because he's one of their biggest mini rig customers/supporters)....

BFL is finally shipping significant hash rate! Hopefully, they get the singles and mini-rigs out to everyone in 2-3 weeks so they can get some of their BTC back before Avalon and KNCMiner (possibly) deliver.

Oh, the irony

Well, if they string it out over 90 days...some people are going to get wrecked.

Honestly I think this is more smoke and mirrors by BFL.

They are shipping BOTH mini rigs and singles, honest, honestly, they honestly are.....

(the rest of the suckers that ordered singles and mini rigs can wait weeks-months, but this shipment is mainly to produce more preorders.)

Why 480 and not 500?

It behaves like 8 60GH singles instead of some separate unit. I have no idea about their claims and whatnot.

Update after running a while:

Looks spot on for 480GH. HW errors ~0.7%. Yes, unit 4 looks hotter than the rest but no throttling appears to happen till 90.
