Topic: [Announcement] Avalon ASIC Batch #1 Ships - page 39. (Read 238907 times)

This is one thing that concerns me.. what about units that are DOA or have obvious manufacturing defects?

Does Avalon do burn ins on the units before they are sent out?

Just for fun. They have already stated that YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN after you buy their product.

@Bitsyncom

Small question:
Is the support of "http://support.avalon-asic.com/" at all active?
Or this page is just for fun?
Cheers

Modular, single radiator per module, nice and simple airflow path.
It's a straightforward, no nonsense, very nice, clean and effective industrial interior design.
Congratulations Avalon team!

@Jeff Garzik - thank you for your review!

Nice shitty video and also in box has 4th modual. SORT YOUR CRAP OUT PLEASE. Next video at least 5 to min length and  a brake down of everything.

Looks like the Chinese beat the Yankees on this particular tech race

Time to lift your game guys ....

Just poking around somewhere I shouldn't be, I'm bitcoin mining illiterate so excuse the ignorance.  What does one of these ASICS cost?  And at current difficulty it generates a reward about every two days right?

Jeff Garzik's word is the closest thing to gospel around here
if he says they are real than I believe him and any idiot who says otherwise needs to take their meds and go to bed.


I was skeptical of Avalon at first as well.

I mean send all you Bitcoins to china - thats a scary thought. But  if the man Jeff Garzik is saying this is the real deal
we should all believe him. No joke.


Avalon is the real deal my friends. Maybe they dont have the best customer service. But if Jeff Garzik a core Bitcoin developer received a working unit then that means that these things really exist, and for those who ordered its only a matter of time. You will all see DHL boxes sitting on your front porch soon. This is real .... ASIC IS HERE and we owe our debt of gratitude to Avalon for making it a reality. The Chinese make 95% of the products in your local wal mart so why can't they make the first ASIC based Bitcoin mining device.

My hat goes off to you - congrats to ngz, yufi, and the Bitsyn team, maybe of whom are still good friends of mine.


you guys did what many could not. Congratulations and my best wishes to you all.  You did it guys - in other words - you rock

thankyou, and peace to you all - maybe someday I will be able to afford one one of these

We owe  all of them a debt of gratitude - they are securing the network and giving us some nice toys to play with

if I said I wasnt jealous I would be lying!

anyways... Thanks Again!!!!!

I would assume that they would have to use a bigger case, as there's no room for 6 sets of chips. And 6 chips would use about what, 800W? Any 1kw 80Plus Gold or preferable Platinum would be able to handle that load, and they're all the same ATX size, so of course it would fit.

Hey jgarzik,Thank you VERY much for posting the pics & info 

Please keeps us abreast of how the unit performs & the wattage usage if & when you can.

Ignore the negative & acentuate the positive bro 

Thanks again !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Perhaps you should learn who Jeff Garzik is. Someone who has done that much unpaid development for bitcoin is someone who is not going to accept bribes.

From what I've read, Jeff Garzik is no one's bitch.

Happy 23rd birthday Yifu!  Now we know why the first deliveries were meant to happen today and not yesterday.

Regardless of who dominates the ASIC market in the future, I hope you guys will always treasure this moment and use it as inspiration for the future.


Bitcoin Foundation have also received their ASIC and they've posted videos.  At what point are you going to accept the reviews as being legitimate?

I know we have no reason to doubt him accept he is human!
Now honestly wouldn't you lie if they offered you lets say 100 000$ or 10% of the whole scam?

Sweet, Batch #2 units has room for more expansion, does that mean the case will be bigger?

I see they bumped the power supply to a bigger unit if you use 4 instead of 3 ASIC daughter boards?




Six daughter boards would mean the equivalent of one extra fan? That's a big case...

Sucks to see the https://bitcoinfoundation.org blog post only mentions the achievements of Yifu. What about NGzhang?

The first legit video of the Avalon Asic (4 module) mining for The Bitcoin Foundation.

Thanks for the review Jeff. It's greatly appreciated.

I stand corrected. Sorry that I misread your blog post but initially the chronology was not clear from what you wrote. The wording now is clear.

There are people here who wouldn't settle even if you dissected the machine. There's even some who would have you dissolve the packaging in acid to look at the die.

On another note, with the package, did you get the tracking info off of it and look it up to see when and how it was shipped? What did the declare on the customs forms? How pissed off was the Dhl guy who gave it to your wife?
