ohh shit guys ...

4TH deliverd in july (2x X3s) will not make much more than 6 btc in 3 months !!
You know what this means?

NO profit for us, just profit for BA ...

were so fucked at the moment ... thanks to this shitty company, what a bunch of assholes
need to know what is the new compensation plan asap, i'm starting loosing my head

I am really glad I decided to only purchase an X-1 rather that X-3 until I saw how things went. Difficulty has all but doubled since I ordered and 100 Gh/s is never going to return 400$. Waiting to see what compensation will do to remedy this. ( I also believe in Santa Claus and Batman)

At least I'm in the "A" group  Tongue

Its not really a group, just a add on we use to fix Shopify orders that messes with the number system for some reason. We have some order XXXXD's for example lol.

What about double D's got any of thoses Smiley

I'm just going by the information you provided.

I assume your order is one of the ones ending in "A" ? If so your order would go out with the rest on Monday

Will the existing compensation offer hardware also be in the Monday shipment or do we have to wait till they come up with a new offer.

As far as I have been told, only the original hardware. I should have a concrete answer later this week.

Hey Bobsag3,

I'm order 133x.  Will my order ship out on Monday, and am I able to change the shipping address?  Also, will the power cords be included?

I'm guessing this will only be the original order with no compensation units.

Let me know,

Chuck

Bobsag3 so seeing as I didn't get tracking info when will the next batch arrive to you.

I received a reply to this from Bobsag, and was told that units would be sent out Friday/Monday (more than likely Monday is my guess).
It will be Monday most likely, and shipment will contain at least all of Batch 1.
Cheers but will that include the lcds and uk plugs also or are they still waiting for the lcds.

No LCDs, possibly on the cords. Still waiting for an answer on them, I was supposed to get the cabled in another shipment separate from the units, but nothing yet.

Well hopefully some one hacks the firmware and maybe improves it.

tempestb I really doubt that BFL which produce the first melting PCIE board in the world can ever produce energy efficient HW.

Speaking about X1 ; david said that heatsink is not so hot at the touch, and all people read the internal chip temperature near 80°C. Heatsink with heatpipes should be very efficient to transfer heat, so deltaT between chip & exaust air shoul be very low. Is termal paste applied correctly???

Reading Bob's mesures what I think is this:

1 - More than 120Gh @ under 120W is good, cause freq can be adjust between 1200 Mhz and 800 Mhz, it seems like BA choose to deliver all hardware OC by default (correct me if I worng).

2 - If we get less than 1 W/Gh in max freq state, there must be room to improve it in lower speed states, but doing it for the moment dosen't seems to increase efficiency significantly.

3 - Possible cause. Chip + power regulators have better dynamic power dissipation than static power dissipation which is good, and this could be why errors increase lowering frequency ( makeing this, chip is forced to pass more time where it dosen't like - especially if it is hot )

Fixes - try anything possible to cool more chip ( this will be good for efficiency & stability at any state ).
        - control voltages (Bob said on ecoin that this will be possible, I suggest david to write this in firsts order on the work to do list for programmers, cause achieving for example 0,7 W/Gh will seriously impove BA situation ).

Bob (or anyone else) , is there any drop in temperatures when you run @ 1000Mhz or lower Huh


I dont think the software based temp sensors, or their software is not working. Our X1s report either 0, 60 or 80c, nothing else.

Clocking to 800mhz only drops the speed, does not seem to impact power consumption all that much. Seems the sweet spot is 1000-1100mhz.

I didn't said sw is not working, only suggest BA implement voltage controls as fast as they can (I see temperatures only HW related)  Wink .  The fact that 800Mhz drops only speed, fully support my thesis. Grin
Would be a shame we can't acieve the better energy consumption only for those little details  Roll Eyes

Sry ninjaboon but I see this as a general X1 topic and I don't want to make bob and david start to loose time jumping along btctalk. Those detalis could be usefull of every X1 future older too.  Smiley
