If one were to add additional H boards - does this alter their place in the queue? Thanks.

No, your original position is never affected by later ordering. If we (ever) have enough quantity on hand to fulfill all the orders in the delivery month, we will combine shipping wherever possible.

I'm leaning towards having the new M-board design made here in the states on a quick turn. If I can't make that happen, I'll supply an appropriate cable so we don't have any confusion.

The first M-board was not made for ease of use or
something but to be as low-cost as possible for the
100TH. That's why the Keystone terminals were chosen,
they were the next cheapest after soldering bare wires
to the board:)

What you can do is take a bunch of the thin wires
coming from the PSU, bundle them together and
cut them. Then solder a thick, 2 mm^2 or so wire to
the bundle, connect that with a crimp terminal to
the Keystone connector. Leave the PSU wires as short
as possible and run the nice thick wire thru your rig.
Insulate the solder joints of course:)

Thanks Intron - I have no problem with this for 100TH mine, but I think I want to be very careful with the rigs that ship to customers. Does anyone know of a plastic safety cover for these Keystone terminals? I'd like to get a bunch for the mine...

How many amps and volts will be required by the fully populated board? How much for M board and How much for each H board?

Tytus is still playing with software settings that can adjust clock rate (within fixed bounds). I argue that achieving 400G computational hashrate meets spec. He argues that we must deliver 400G nonce rate (excludes errors) and so has turned them up a bit. This produces a 440G hashrate with 414G nonce rate (385G reported by Slushpool), but power at the wall is measured 10% higher at 330w (.825w per Gh/s total rig power). Since 330w is after the PSU losses, actual board wattage is somewhat less than that. I figure the board is pulling about 25A @ 12VDC.

I have no idea yet how well the chips will hold up as they are clocked higher. What we do know is that the hotter they get the more power they pull, the more errors they throw. However they like to run best in 45C range, so over cooling them doesn't help. BitFury is running his chips at much higher clocks with heatsinks and fans and having no failures. He also found a block already so we know these are lucky chips!

i have a question about paying with a credit card, can the payment be broken on 2 cards?
my highest limit is 7500 and i would like to order the 400gh.

Thanks

You can call your CC company and ask for a higher limit.

That's what I did, lol.

Though I haven't yet been able to pay as I haven't been contacted yet?? I hope that occurs soon because my local currency is tanking against us$ right now - so it's going to start really hurting soon.

Sorry Stack! The credit card processing thing has become a major pain. I'll have it running as soon as possible, then we will contact everyone who is waiting to pay.

What PSU model would you recommend?

It would depend how many H-boards are in use. A starter kit would work fine with a 350W supply, even a 200W supply likely. A full 400GHash rig would need at least 500W (assuming that bitfury is operating near the 1w/GHash design), but a 750W supply would be best

Hey guys, the first boards are shipping from the factory tomorrow. These are for 100TH rigs, but the August rigs are right on the heels of these boards (I don't know how long it takes them to make the 100TH boards). The August delivery rigs were ordered in the same batch - this is different from what I've posted previously - I had forgotten that we added to the order over the top of what was needed for 100TH.

Tytus has the software working pretty well at this point - its only consuming 25% - 30% of an rPi's processor resources, which I think is pretty amazing!

A lot of work still needs to be done around things like producing some instructions and safety recommendations. These things really are kits from that standpoint. As soon as I can post pics of how to properly set up your rigs, I'll post it on my website. I want to make sure you can get your rigs up & running without damaging them, yourself or your personal property.

Hey, I made a quick video showing screen output from a rig - thought I'd share that.

Hi Dave, when you say "but the August rigs are right on the heels of these boards" does this include the starter kits as well, or just full 400GH/s rigs?

Starter kit is still a rig - I should say August product I guess
