I just sent bobsag3 an email for my Minion chips I would like.

http://www.blackarrowsoftware.com/store/minion.html

I do not know how everyone else feels about this since it is 3 months out right now... but I am going to at least get in line and set aside my funds now for this, in case MrTeal and ChipGeek do indeed take on this next challenge.

MrTeal... any idea what you would be doing if you did take this up? 2 chip, 4 chip 8 chip boards? Same 100 board commitment before you would go in for a batch run?

Do you have any plans Lucko?

OK I was told some thing unofficially what was going on with my package... Unfortunately can't share since I was told that confidentially... But if that is true Aramex is not just a batch of amateurs but they are also cheating air companys. And they were cough with this package... Can't tell you more but biased on source I think it is what happened...

Edit: But if anyone if interested PM me...

Thanks. Just keep us updated Lucko. At this point I have no expectations. It's better that way.

Have the boards made it back to the facility yet? What kind of time frame are we looking at until completion and shipping?

Update... Do not use Aramex or DPD express for shipping anything... They send package DPD express and it turns out that DPD uses Aramex for express shipping. It was seating in Paris till today and today they have no idea where it is... Tracking say it left Paris 2 days ago but that was not the case unless they lie to me that it is still in Paris... I should get 40 express made boards next week(I hope Monday) so we can start... Would you like chip picture again so you know I'm not mining?

maybe go by truck instead aircargo ?

Here is an interesting water block that should fit on the Chili.

It may need a copper shim to lift it away from the board, and it will need mounting plates.

with this size of cooler it may fit into a single card slot. (with some plumbing and a separate pump and powerside fan)

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/290968684090?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

Edit:- I have just ordered one.
When it comes I will take some photos

Here is the pump

Water block in copper

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Water-cooling-copper-block-FOR-graphics-GPU-endothermic-head-motherboard-PC-CPU-/330917635804

No fixing kits yet.

Backplates and top plate...........but need drilling...........

and the data sheet:- http://www.cui.com/product/resource/vhs-45.pdf

Edit:- For the Chili, the holes need to be 53.2mm x 53.2mm

No mounting? Or is there... If it is I will hate my self for buying air-cooled solution...

I thought the same when I saw it, (Maybe a box of evo 212 coolers spare here)

It needs mounting plates, I'm still looking for some, I will post back If I find anything.

If anyone is interested I'm now also reordering boards and if someone would like to have there chips mounted contact me ASAP. Boards will not be made in big batches so no need to wait for me to announce next batch. As long as 6+ boards to make I will do it... I plan to reorder 50 additional boards but to get the idea how many are needed some feedback would be nice...

Quote from: Mudbankkeith on November 26, 2013, 11:33:12 AM

Best news of the day.

Have they given you a priority on the pick and place?

I would think so...

When would the next delivery be?

It takes 7 working days for boards to be made... It could be done faster but it starts to cost much more... And usually you get them sooner anyway...
