I bet someone in the team design servers in his previous job.

Indeed. 4 of them to be exact Smiley

The closest I've seen to this was the Avalon2 which is a major step above most other ASICs, but this is from the ground up perfect. I'd like to have experimented turning both heatsinks into each other, although this arrangement may have been done to guarantee clearance on the back of that bottom board.

I think they already thought about turning the heatsinks, but they also thought about how to MASS PRODUCING the units.
If you are turning the heatsinks, you will have 2 slight different motherboards and connections.
There is no way to produce the units faster then what they now have in mind and there is too much room for mistake at the assembly line if you are turning the heatsinks.
It is almost impossible to get the noise lower than 68 dB with such a small heatsink and using fans.
The whole design is based on rack density.

Will anyone explain to me the PSU issue? I see that in the video there is only a PSU of 1kW, but the unit needs more juice.

The PSU is 1050 W/h rated by the manufacturer, However, it's able to pull up to about 1300 W/h at the wall.
It's actually the system limiting factor. We're experimenting with a larger PSU as well.

Can anyone from this list confirm that they have received a tracking number for their units?

We're ironing last bugs in the miner UI. We'll ship the units to all the reviewer from the list we published in 1-2 days


Are we able to hook a standard 1300W PSU or higher?

Waiting for the tracking numbers before thinking about an order or not.

This is the best board design I have ever seen from all the Asic companies out there.
Especially when you look at the middle of the asic-motherboard, how a simple arrangement of chips can lower the average temperature of all the chips.
The whole miner is made out easy to produce parts and easy to assemble.
You guys even thought about cable management, everything is clean and neat.
I am impressed, I don't say that easy, but you guys are FUCKING GOOD.

Easy2Mine, we take our jobs very seriously and we take our customers seriously.
Thank you for the kind words, we like people who appreciate good engineering as much as we do.

Also we want to see live demo of your units. Your movie contains only static images. Point a miner at Eligius and post the address and/or post a video showing the miner and the unit running. It only takes 1 min.

I've pointed a unit to Eligius, here are the stats:

Also, please see the following average stats from btcguild:

I don't want to be an asshole, but it is totally not suitable to place it at your home regardless what your website is saying.
68 dB per miner, if you have more than 3 in one place, you can hear them in every corner of your house.
You really need to rent a datacenter if you want to be a serious miner with this stuff.

If there's a woof, there's a way. I can't guarantee I'll get them down to silent but I'll give it a go. If people are data centering them then noise isn't an issue. In residential then size isn't an issue and so the cooling mods can commence.

I just examine the board design. Looking great. Luckily Cointerra doesn't know how to design it that way.
Thanks. We have excellent system design guys on board. Ex Mellanox and Voltaire
Where did you produce the chips?
Global Foundries or Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company?
I saw that it is 40 nm, most probably a local Israeli company for fast production and no waiting queue but I am not sure.
TSMC. Assembly in Flextronics, Israel

Ask Meni Rosenfeld to post in this thread using his own account.
I'm Meni Rosenfeld and I approve this message Smiley

"This message" being that I consult for Spondoolies-tech and have known some of the people involved for about a year. I haven't seen the hardware yet, but hopefully that will be soon.

Where´s Spondoolies factory located? Occupied ground?

Hi JointDoctor,

Our offices are located in Kiryat Gat, right between the Intel Factory and HP's offices. We're also using the services for Flextronics who are located in Migdal Ha'emek.
Neither of which is in disputed territory.

Thank you for that answer  Smiley
Is it possible to visit your office?

Absolutely, please send us a PM or send an email to [email protected] to schedule

Will do, sometime next week when i´m in Israel Smiley
Wanna take the time to also wish you guys best of luck! Good job and i will for sure order a couple of units in the future   Grin

INVENTORY ISSUES
Some of the items in your cart became unavailable during your checkout process.

April Dawson sold out already.

Ordering process works fine for me, can you post a screenshot?

Must be people putting them in their cart and not checking out. Worked the second time I tried. But too expensive for Europe.

April sold out?

People love the pre-order on their credit cards don't they...? Some people will only learn the hard way.

imho

Except they don't take CC

even worse then....Cheesy
