Yes, interested in a system of that scale, look forward to more details when they are available.

We are still playing with the Cairnsmore2 design that is our current testbed design and that is looking good. Out of that work we think a base module of about 1TH/s is practical size for us to build overall units out of and that is what we are working on next. Please don't bombard us with emails or PMs asking about the price as at this point we won't say and it isn't even totally set. I can say it will be set generally by a combination market forces and manufacture costs so you can make a reasonable zone guess from existing competitiion pricing what that might be. However if that market price doesn't meet our expectations we probably won't launch the product and just feed the design into our internal Goliath systems. Assuming we do go for public launch (we are still examining IP issues as well) pricing will be available at formal product launch.

Anyway point of this post is to get a straw poll of how many people might be interested in products at this sort level of hardware investment?



@Yohan.


So, in reply to my negativity over internal, private system "Goliath," you returned the favor with a similarly rhetorical negative response to me.


So, now you guys decide - "Hey, maybe we will open this up to the public."


You're a douche, Yohan.

I don't think he said Goliath system was for bitcoin mining. It is a systems for other markets and uses. I felt he was saying that if they don't feel the market is worth getting into they will just roll the designs into other projects.

I'm interested.

Only reason why I didn't buy into ASIC physical hardware, is because if I was going to owned it, it be an other Enterpoint.
I got 2 of your FPGA's and they still work wonderfully. I'm much rather buy local.

1 Th/s. I'd want that.

I regret not picking up more Cairnsmore1 nodes  Shocked For CairnsmoreNext I can't afford 1 TH/s at Avalon prices. I might be interested in 1 TH/s at or (ideally) under BFL prices. Depending on when this launches, 1 TH/s might actually be worth so little that I could purchase a few. Look forward to seeing what you guys release.

Interested, I probably wouldn't have the cash for a 1TH/s system but something smaller definitely

 As expressed I'm happy to invest in whatever you have available Yohan so stick me down from some more enterpoint goodness  Wink

ok i m in also

but do you have  an idea of when?

and if you have a wholesale price ,i would be interested in more than one Smiley

We won't talk about the detail until we are ready. It's really market evaluation at the moment and whilst the base technology is in Cairnsmore2 we still have a little jump to what would be Cairnsmore3. That timeline is stretchy as this is one of many projects that we are doing and it isn't our most important project commercially. We also have a very major product launch coming so everyone here will involved in that for the next 2 months and that will hit everything that we do. So rather than promise timescales, as certain of competitors would do and then fail badly to keep them, I won't fix a timescale that could easily get broken. I know that will be a pain to people making decisions but just talking about what we are doing it is the best I can offer currently.

what is the difference between goliath and cairnsmore?


Goliath the family name for our really big computing systems and encompasses a range of our technologies and is for a much wide range of applications. Basically it's our twist on a supercomputer.

Cairnsmore family is specifically Bitcoin targeted technology and generally much smaller thing than the overall Goliath concept. The Cairnsmore3 we are talking about here would be considered a "small" processing element or even a co-processor within a Goliath to put it in context. When used outside these systems but it can be a "small" system in it's own right.

Interested, even if there are a lot of unknowns:

- delivery time
- power consumption
- price

Id be interested, my Cainsmore 1 still running strong.

Most of them are. There may be an odd one we don't know about but failure rate is very much less than 1% over the very large build. I think it's fair to say that the cooling solution has done very well. Looks like we are building several hundred more in the nxt few weeks to keep up with current demand as well.
