I am pretty sure they will ship via DHL. That being said, the reel of chips are a high value item so DHL does not want to hold on to them any longer than necessary due to insurance concerns. There are also several groups expecting their chips in the first 2 weeks of October also so I guess we will see what happens.

So does that mean the 2 weeks out still mean a 4 week wait till delivery. If I get in a batch one order and live in the US how lon .after payment is the wait to my door?

I sent an email to Megabigpower and they replied quite quickly actually (Yvonne Paull) and she said:
"We expect to begin shipping reels near the end of next week. You will receive an email when your order is ready to ship."

So, thanks for the quick reply Megabigower. I hope our reel is included in that. (The end of next week is around Oct 10/11th).

So the chips start in Russia (or is it Finland), then to USA, then to Australia? Is the shipping from Australia to UK a return journey, or will my chips complete a round-the-world journey?
The chips are made in Asia.

Barntech, Maybe you should make it that those who don't pay shipping by a certain date will ship after those who have paid. So say those who haven't paid by this coming Sunday, will lose their spot and those who have move to the front. I am not biased at all since I am fully paid Smiley

Please, not the dreaded "two weeks" again...  Grin

Bahahaha. Yeah, let's just say "soon"... some weeks, in a bit, a jiffy, before you know it!  Cheesy

Send out the good vibes people!

Here are some good vibes for you:
I'm going to order my powersupply, fans and such!
And tell my girlfriend where my miner is going to be on our shelf!  Grin   (Yes, where visitors can see it. So feel free to send along a nice "trophy" of an advertisement.)  Grin

Speaking of which, Barntech (or anyone), do you know which fan would be better for a 4 board setup?
Scythe Gentle Typhoon Fan (120mmX120mm) - 850, 1450 or 1850 rpm???
I'll be going with the Cooler Master V450S 450w power supply. Incredible efficiency for the lower watt range.

GO DRILLBIT!!!

Thanks,
IAS

Yeah, that's the spirit. Nice one IAS. I think prime position right on your shelf is just the spot for it! ... How's your girlfriend doing? She gonna be OK?  Wink Cheesy

As for which fan to get, i'm not really sure. Part of me wants to say get the fastest, biggest, best 1850 all the way baby, but maybe that's overkill, i don't know. Is noise an issue? Its a bit louder, but not that much. It'll certainly be quieter than the standup room fan i have cooling my GPUs (yes they're still running, i know its stupid and they cost much more to run than they make, but i just can't bring myself to turn them off! ... I guess i will once the Drillbits are in!  Grin). I'm sure a medium one would do just fine, but hey its only a couple bucks and a couple dbs!

And nice PSU choice. You could probably get away with a cheaper one, but that one looks nice.

BT

I will really be proud of showing off my Drillbit to company (no pun)  Grin

The girlfriend is actually pretty accepting of my erupters with a turbo fan on them (again no pun). This PS and Typhoon fans are both quieter!
I can get that PS for around 70 Euro and yeah I can save a few bucks, maybe 10-20 by getting a cheaper and noisier one.
But the savings from the woman not complaining (both health and immediate)... PRICELESS.

The PS and some others in the same price range have a VERY TIGHT voltage regulation and very low voltage ripple. I'm hoping that that helps with overclocking by not having as many errors due to spurious voltage. That is my theory anyway. Here is a review of the 550w model of the PS. Basically the same as the 450w I imagine. http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/CoolerMaster/V550S/
It is truly the best at lower voltages, in the platinum range. For the money it is exceptional.

Regarding the Typhoon fans. The Db for the 1850 is 28, as is the PS at a lower draw. They won't be noticed much.
There are much faster and noisier ones. I think the 1450 would work as well but I'll probably get the 1850 as it is pretty damn quiet anyway. They are designed for this too. (Do the CFM mean anything to you regarding cooling or?)



Here is the review on the fans. Really worth reading. http://forums.bit-tech.net/showthread.php?t=212924

Good job Barntech, keep on keeping on,

Is assembly included or did I miss an additional fee? If I buy  the board for 425, its comes put together with the addition of shipping cost only right?

OK,

So i've been going through the orders for Batch one. I've done a wee spot of color coding on the list. I'll paste it here but please check the front page for the master list that will continue to be updated. Basically if your name is green, you are fully paid and ready to go. Hooray! If your name is black, you still need to pay for Shipping or Assembly or both. Please contact me! If i don't have your forum name matched to your real name, i have entered initials for your spot in the queue.

If you guys can please stay on top of this ans sort out the remaining payments that will save me from having to write to everyone individually and that would be totally awesome!! Have a look, if your name is black and you know what you still need to pay, go ahead and pay it. If you are unsure, or you have paid and i have made a mistake, write to me and let me know.

Once you have paid, send me an email at [email protected] with the details.

Payments details are:

BTC, pay to 1AF1WmU9Ut2CMuMJWgeBiXb2LMCd6x1GYA.

Paypal, pay to [email protected]

Thank all.!!  Grin

Yep.

Got an email back from Dave saying that we should be getting chips within two weeks. Hoorah!  Grin Grin

i have a question

like on backplane you can have 4 boards attached which is similar to the other system that dave is selling but this is on a smaller scale

will it be the same to hash different pool or different coin on each board or all has to be hashing the same coin same pool?



You should be able to select individual ASIC devices in the cgminer config file or launch settings, same as with GPU mining. *Might* require the use of individual USB cables to each board though?

Yes. If you attach all the boards via one USB, the Atmel chip on the first board will distribute the nonce data to all the chips on all the boards in one big string. If you want to run different boards in different pools you will need to attach them individually each with its own USB connection. From there you can assign each of them as you like in Cgminer.

Thank you

Hey BarnTech

Is paypal not an option anymore for Batch 2? I have been trying to use the minersource link since lastnight, but it just comes up with a page not found error. The rest of that website seems to be working though. I'm sure it was working ok just 2-3 days ago, but not anymore.

Thanks
Paypal is no longer an option as mentioned already in this thread. Paypal wont take any more money until  after hardware is actually shipping. So anymore Paypal pre-orders are out of the question.




This is not the case. Paypal via third party for Batch 2 is still an option. Looking into why the page is down now.

Paypal is still an option for Batch 2. The paypal that is frozen is ours which is why we are doing paypal for batch 2 through the third party... but you are right, the minersource page is not working. I will look into it now. Stay tuned
