There are NO chips more ...

i dont know where the 5000 Chips are gone but BFL doesnt have any more ...

so now i can hope they get more than 1000 ( 1 wafer ) thursday -.-

Any the mystery of the 5000 missing chips is not even explained at all...

other than "oh we dont have the chips anymore..blah blah blah"

Did they ever really have those chips? If they did are they syphoning them off to an undisclosed location to mine secretly adding a small amount of hash to the network over time?

Wouldn't surprise me if BFL resorted to this to get enough capital to fulfill all preorders lol.....scummy fucks  Grin

And they need now double pieces of chip`s for one Unit -.-
Which means it will exasterbate the chips shortages.

If the 5000 chips went bust then it means that BFL is approaching somewhere around 25%~30% failure rate for their 100 wafer batch.
Is 100 wafer's what BFL ordered?  How many chips do they get per wafer?

i've seen estimates up to 10-20k BFL single orders but I think nobody knows how much hashing power they will add to the network or if they will be wafer limited or not

35 Jalapenos (2 chips each) out of 5000 chips = 1.4% wafer yield. I guess their 100% wafer yield estimate was off just a little.

Maybe someone spilled Mountain Dew on the rest of the wafer?

Maybe someone spilled maple syrup on it thinking it was a waffle ready to eat. lol

Looks great and the larger board as was said, is simplified a bit.  It said power was two 6-pin connectors so whether that's meant for an ATX PSU only or adapts to a power brick or something should be made clear soon enough.

I'm sure they'll use a power brick, with a mini-fit jr adapter. Something like this, but bigger: http://www.mini-box.com/12v-16A-AC-DC-Power-Adapter

Nice to see the singles coming along well.  I'd estimate then that they'd do power testing and stability over this coming weekend and hopefully the assemble and ship-out the week after, ideally.  But then again with how the roadmap they've been on has been, it's just good to see progress.  But then again I'm very patient so yeah.

How are they handling the power supply issue for the 60gh units? I dont think a power brick is gonna work for 300w but they announce anything yet?

Another useful BFL thread ruined by trolls.
Are there no mods?

I am use to a forum with over 10,000 active members, where mods would have deleted half the posts in this thread in seconds as off topic or abusive.



I have most of them ignored, what gets me is the retards who quote them.

Why are you guys always focusing on the negative stuff... just look at that thing; it looks like a small reactor, like it's going to melt through the table! It's just awesome! Smiley

"The current board will support the hashrates ordered for Little Single and Single in one box, so single units will be shipped out for both the Little Single and the Single."

Forgive me if this has been mentioned before, but does this confirm that the 30GH/s single will be housed in a double wide case instead of the Jalapeno sized case?



Yes.

TL;DR: More than likely resuming shipping week of May 13th

https://forums.butterflylabs.com/announcements/692-bfl-asic-status-3.html#post30481


Didn't they say that they are going to ship next week last week?
