OK good news... Boards found... They were send by mistake to France to one of the customers... And are on the way back. Waiting for tracking data...
We were due for some good news!

Best news of the day.
Have they given you a priority on the pick and place?
Nice I was really hoping that they would be found...

Yes - I too find you can decide Lucko & I am sure you will make it fair.
I think, until now, Lucko have do a good job managing (a lot) problems found in this group Buy.
I think he will find a fair solution even if not be a strict first in firts out.

First in First Out is fair.
+1 Why should the ppl who paid later (waited too long!? ... potentially delayed the ordering parts) now get boards earlier?
Doesn't sound fair to me. The ones who ordered first should be served first.

Cut for each but doesn't really matter
But make sure parts that don't touch chips do touch heatsink very well or it will trap heat

I followed what Mr. Teal did with one (or a couple?) of his boards.

I got two of those coolers waiting for each board. They are going to take up some space, but it looked to me like a really good AND cheap way to keep them cool. I don't know about you but with the way this deal has been going I don't want to spend another cent I don't have to.
Anyway - Mr. Teal said he just used the grease that came in the boxes with the coolers. No pads apparently. Said he was getting 39.8 Gh/s on a board with all 8 chips firing. He even got 32 Gh/s on board with one dead chip. I think cooling is going to make a huge difference with these boards.

I'm sure I'll regret saying this but just ship mine together if that means I'm in the 100 board batch then so be it. I'm still kinda hoping they find them.
So on a side note I am ordering thermal pads and it is a big square that I assume I cut to fit on top of the chips. I hope I don't sound like a freakin idiot here but do I cut one big piece that covers the entire area of the chip cluster or do cut a smaller pieces to go on top of each chip with some space between them. I obviously don't much about the subject, I've never used thermal pads before and was fortunate enough to have the one chili board I have assembled by CrazyGuy but I'm on my own for the next two.
Link to thermal pad I am considering.

OK it is not 100% confirmed jet but it looks like they will pay for rushjob. Not for 140 boards that I had but for 40 boards. The rest at normal speed. Now I don't plan to make any boards for me but we need to figure out a what is the best way to make boards done... I think it is still the order the chips came to me and give propriety to donors and GB. But I would still put dwdoc no the first place...
But if anyone had a different suggestion I'm open for it... Something like 1/3 plan that BFL had maybe... But how will that work for thus with 1 board...

How much time difference is there between the 40 rush jobs and the remaining 100? Ultimately this is your call Lucko (better you than me) but I don't have a problem with any of the suggestions above.

As there were 3 batches of chips in the GB, I think you should loosely follow the original sequence, this will also work out similar to the 1/3 plan.(possibly adjusted for "paid in full" date?)
Final delivery costs could also be a problem, for example:- 3 boards now and one board next week?
Also try to fit in the donors as originally promised.
For other chip suppliers it will be fair to them to be based on when they "paid in full".
The difficult choice is how to integrate these numbers into the first 40 and then the later 100 boards. Good Luck.

So have I understood correctly, boards are lost? Is there any idea in me buying 16 chips and sending them to Lucko for a board then?
Where are you located btw? Inside or outside the EU?
Thanks,
Inside EU. Not sure what would you like to ask. Yes boards have disappeared and are not yet located. I'm still waiting on any kind of news... I'm talking just about PCB not assembled boards... Where are you located btw? Inside or outside the EU?
Thanks,

I will know more tomorrow but I guess about 10 days... I will see if I can get founds for rushjob from them... But that is like 400% price...
The ones who lost the boards should pay for that! November 24, 2013, 12:43:27 PM
I suppose we won't hear anything until the weekend ends. So worst case scenario what are we looking at here? If they can't find the boards how long will it take to get them to actually pay to have them replaced and then how long to have them made?
