I take back all my posts as it was an error with the display!
Was misled buy the display error!
All your btc deposits have been refunded except for few who wanted me to substitute it with the 400mhash boards.

I am really sorry, if it has to be this way!
I just advertised the info given by Dashing... Thought it would help people out there expecting better hash at lesser price!

HI Kano
I think all this because of the confusion I have cleared it here.......

Except that the post of his quoted is still saying it's valid ...HI Kano
I think all this because of the confusion I have cleared it here.......
...
and his last two posts haven't taken back that comment ...
specially this comment pissed me off too ... coz it's a lie ...

So you order 10 of them, you can be sure of getting a minimum of 9ghash as Kano said but according to Dashing, you will actually be getting the other 1ghash too!
See...
I am not forcing anyone to buy this! I am tiered of convincing people. Those who believe may! No competition...
I have posted what i have seen.
I am not going to convince any more people!
I have made this post based on Dashing's miner performance! And what i saw was each board was at 998mhash and 1.02ghash. Avg of 994mhash. I think that's good enough and worth, as the shipping is within 20 days.
Atleast we all know that we as going to get a minimum of 800mhash each board as they 2X chips are used!
So you order 10 of them, you can be sure of getting a minimum of 9ghash as Kano said but according to Dashing, you will actually be getting the other 1ghash too!
I posted what i saw! Sounded pretty good as FPGAs can be resold once they get outdated unlike the ASICs as they are application specific!
So its up to you guyz to decide to buy or not to. I have already received a bulk order.
Anyone still interested, just PM me!
Cheers,
Wilson

Show us the bitcoin you received.
Better yet throw it up on a P2Pool and let us all know what address ya?
It's not 1GH/s and most likely 500MH/s at the most if he's using the v42 bitstream.
Wilson you need to drop that stupidity I've already told you it is wrong - continuing to claim it's correct is indeed a SCAM.
It's also not a cgminer bug, it's to do with the settings used or the default settings.
My Icarus code handles all sorts of Icarus bitstream devices with the correct settings, and those settings options are there to change the way it calculates the work done and also to change the timing it uses to send work to the device to avoid it running out of work and being idle.
The Icarus driver default expects a device with 2 FPGAs, fixed frequency (380MH/s), and the bitstream halving the work in a specific way (which is what a standard Icarus does).
You need to use different options if the device is different to a standard Icarus
If it's different, the default options will get wrong values for MH/s since it counts hashes based on the settings.
If they are very wrong, the device will often fall idle and do nothing for short periods of time.
... and all this is documented in the FPGA-README that I wrote last year ...

Alright, just saw OP edits and will pass on my 1.5 c.
OP had not posted expected hashrate. I would assume that he added
Dashing is testing the equipment that he purchased and only vouching for what he can see, accompanied by screenshots. Seems very legit and Dashing's words show that he does honestly believe the hashrate he sees.
Kano's confirmation of the same overrides what Dashing's tests have proved, unless we are talking about some other FPGA which has been customized.
In this event, I would either request a demo unit to be sent to kano to test and send back.
Or, some actual specs that can be investigated by the community.

Hmm, i think this is what might have happened :/ I got the boards from Wilson (he never promised me 1 Ghash) and then was surprised to see the hash rate on the first 2 boards and told him about the hashrate, hence the reason why he probably offered it at 1 ghash
I never fudged/played with any stats,
I just use --ircrus-timing short as usual and nothing else, I don't know why its reporting that, i'll probably recompile cgminer agian from git

wait nd watch
@rezurect : oh just remembered, you missed my question earlier, did you get your 150 Ghash ASICminer which you were offering to Wilson??
Proof on top of proof because i was saying that your proof of cgminer is a reporting error. Hence you need something else to prove it.
U value converges = Run for hours , you dint have time apparently.
I say the pool results could be skewed due to time, the same apples for cgminer.
U value converges = Run for hours , you dint have time apparently.
I say the pool results could be skewed due to time, the same apples for cgminer.
since im saying its a firmware reporting error,hence cgminer is erring, other than a web UI i cant figure out how to look at the speed.
The formula works,after the U values converge in cgminer, but i dont think youll want to waste your time doing that,
Its not perfect ,I know it has errors, but i see no other ways to look at speed, the longer you run the miner the more accurate it usually gets, it averages out over time usually.
just help us verify speed if you can via a screenshot of a pool Dashboard after running a few hours, with shares accepted, else it would be skewed due to time.

Err, I have these boards running for over a week now :/
anyways, matter is solved, its a display bug.

I did tell you guys about results being "skewed by time".
No matter how many times you recompile cgminer, the error will stay till the devs fix it.

I don't recall that, you kept asking for proof on top of proof for the miners, anyways I may have missed that in last nights shit storm

Yep, looks like this stupid confusion around caused a lot of trouble for Wilson :/

I wonder what brought Kano here
Check the OP. One of the Global Moderators added an edit and might have pinged Kano.
Lolz! I myself am wondering...
Atleast we all know that we as going to get a minimum of 800mhash each board as they 2X chips are used!
For Wilson^^ who is still maintaining its 800Mhps. Its a 500Mhps max perboard (250 per chip)
Again,
It does 500MH/s
End of story - anyone thinking it does 1GH/s is being scammed by misrepresentation.
It's run time is 2 minutes so the MH/s numbers don't mean anything either.
You can fake the MH/s number up by giving the code the incorrect --icarus-timing or incorrect --icarus-options ... I know I wrote the code.

I told them politely to run it for hours, instead of putting it straight in their face, they don't take heed. They needed the dev to come here personally and say it right in their face that's its a "fudged" figure, to make them understand.
Oh, and before I forget - you can get them in bulk at $260 each.

According to Blackarrow, a hashrate improvement to 500Mhps came from the firmware version. ie v42
The v42 also causes a reporting error which causes the speed to be reported as 1Ghps.
Although not perfect: an easy verification would be from the Web UI of the pool which shows accepted share number and speed,(btcguild or some pools report approx speed based on shares accepted) but you have run it for a few hours in the pool.

pool's reporting hash rate is not accurate. I run one blades for a day on btcguild and it reported 16 ghs which cannot be true.
they changed fan on smaller one, so with 1 ghs this board will melt down. As there is no official confirmation of 1ghs this thread is BS.
I'll be really honest, I have no idea man, cgminer reports 1 Ghash and gives good shares per minute too,
But yeah, I don't feel scammed in anyway, as Wilson never promised me 1 Ghash, he promised me cheap FPGAs and I got them
So I wouldn't call this a complete BS, as really even cgminer is just estimating against the number of shares sent per minute as cgminer cannot get the actual rate from the FPGA (this is a verified claim)congratulations!! that is good machine and you for sure will make a lot of money on long run. If I did not have ASICs I will buy 10. even if it gives 500mgh it is not bad at all.
heh i sense a tad of sarcasm there
anyways, I have a few ASICs too, waiting on them though sorry if you see it in that way, I really not mean any sarcasm. Why would I, it is good product and price is fair.

Edit: "verified claim" by who? That's bullshit. I wrote the damn code. I know what it does.
It counts the hashes done and estimates the hashes when it aborts work (that doesn't find a result or during an LP) based on the hash rate and the time when it aborts the work.
It's nothing to do with shares other than if a nonce is invalid after a hash validation, it will not count towards the MH/s work done (coz it is a hardware error)

If I did not have ASICs I will buy 10. even if it gives 500mgh it is not bad at all.
According to Blackarrow, a hashrate improvement to 500Mhps came from the firmware version. ie v42
The v42 also causes a reporting error which causes the speed to be reported as 1Ghps.
Although not perfect: an easy verification would be from the Web UI of the pool which shows accepted share number and speed,(btcguild or some pools report approx speed based on shares accepted) but you have run it for a few hours in the pool.

pool's reporting hash rate is not accurate. I run one blades for a day on btcguild and it reported 16 ghs which cannot be true.
they changed fan on smaller one, so with 1 ghs this board will melt down. As there is no official confirmation of 1ghs this thread is BS.
I'll be really honest, I have no idea man, cgminer reports 1 Ghash and gives good shares per minute too,

true true,
Its not perfect atleast somewhat near,
just help us verify speed if you can via a screenshot of a pool Dashboard after running a few hours, with shares accepted, else it would be skewed due to time.

I don't mine on 1 pool, and that's been my strategy for long long time
I use the "load balance" option in CGminer to spread my hash rate around for many reasons,
1.
I mine on EclipseMC PPS, as you can withdraw balance anytime (no minimum amount)
2.
I mine on Ozcoin DGM, DGM = stable income
3.
I mine on BTCGuild PPLNS = shorter rounds = more $
4.
I mine on Slush pool = score based, high score = more $
and yeah, I dont' have the time to switch everything around to 1 pool just to prove a fact, the FPGAs are all connected to my RPi in my balcony in a case being cooled by natural cooling
I'm out of this topic as it seems to be going round and round again and again, and good luck finding something to mine with until much much cheaper and VIABLE ASICs come out
true true,
since im saying its a firmware reporting error,hence cgminer is erring, other than a web UI i cant figure out how to look at the speed.
The formula works,after the U values converge in cgminer, but i dont think youll want to waste your time doing that,
Its not perfect ,I know it has errors, but i see no other ways to look at speed, the longer you run the miner the more accurate it usually gets, it averages out over time usually.

WRONG ! the WebUI of a POOL WILL NEVER know your actual hashrate !!!! IT'S A ESTIMATED NUMBER ! even if you mine for a few hours, a sudden influx of shares will spike your hash rate ! So that is completely unreliable way to judge !

Again,
If this is directed towards me, I really don't care, I needed the FPGA, Wilson got it for me, I can see the difference in number of shares going per minute from the upgraded board and the other boards
and again,
consider this as "stepping" stone hardware, mine with them to save on power bill and still get $$ and sell them later on and buy a ASIC, as if not for BTC mining, the FPGA can be used for a variety of other things hence the reason they can be resold easily

maybe I'm missing somethgin, but on their web site http://www.cardreaderfactory.com/shop/lancelot.html
it is Speed: 400 Megahashes/sec.
so it s 300 usd for Speed: 400 Megahashes/sec only make sense if you buy 2-3 boards to keep it a toys, or much better revers engineer is produce locally.
price wise compared to ASICminer blades it is no good buy. to match one ASIC blade you need 32 Lancelot 300X32 = 9600 usd
ASICminer blade cost 50btc = 6500 usd, and no wait at all.
unless is there some official confirmation of 1ghs rate.

I think that with v42 firmware Lancelot reaches 500Mega hases. I haven't looked at your code but I think that based on the proof of work you should be able to accurately calculate the speed. You should not rely on how fast the device returns data but on what date it is actually returning.
Regards!
I have no idea if he made a newer version after May 17, He hasn't posted it. Regards!
and also it depends on the speed grade of the chip, different grades give different speeds and different number of stales and less/more heat
may be somebody discovered a way to run 1 FPGA chip @ 500 Mhps(Since two chips give 1Ghps).
it is possible, there is 1 FPGA chip which runs at 600 Mhash/sec (600 Mhz freq) but the issue is getting those chips :/ they are very very expensive if bought in small quandities, only more than 10,000 orders get good quotes for those chips, hence the reason why we have to adjust with these chips until we get cheaper ASICs out
may be somebody discovered a way to run 1 FPGA chip @ 500 Mhps(Since two chips give 1Ghps).
anyways, my plan is set, mine how much ever possible with these boards and then sell and buy Jalapenos once they're out, and anyways, 26 watts power usage per board will not affect me in anyway, it's lesser than running a light bulb and a bit more than a CFL bulb
I save much more mining with these than my GPUs
EDIT:
consider this as "stepping" stone hardware, mine with them to save on power bill and still get $$ and sell them later on and buy a ASIC, as if not for BTC mining, the FPGA can be used for a variety of other things hence the reason they can be resold easily

that calculation applies if I have only 1 Board, I have 5, and 5% investment recovered is my ROI over 5 boards
Its percentages, Its the same if you have any number of boards.not really, your calculation was based on if 1 board was 1 Ghash, while only 2 of mine report that, its natural that the other boards pull down the %
its like marks at school/college,
for eg,
you get,
100 in 2 subjects and 40 in the rest subjects
your average naturally gets pulled down

Tell me soon if you need one!
Btw your previous quote was 6months old and the other was a month ago!
A lot can happen in a day you know! And this is launched max a week back!

already recovered around 5% of my investment in 1 and a half weeks.
You guys still dont get it, its a cgminer reporting error.Thats why black arrow is selling it as a 400Mhps FPGA.Whats the firmware version yore running?
According to your results 5%ROI in 1.5 weeks,(ie, 5%*20=100% ROI : 1.5 weeks*20 = 30 weeks=7.5 months)
ie, ROI is 7.5 months @ current difficulty.(In reality considering Diff jumps its >7.5months)
1Ghps gives 3.5 months ROI not 7.5 months
Wilson: I'm not arguing that the deal is bad.
that calculation applies if I have only 1 Board, I have 5, and 5% investment recovered is my ROI over 5 boards
Anyways, This is a good enough deal for me irrespective of whats going around (calculations, etc etc), I am rather happy to trade with an indian than buy that ASICminer blade as in a few months the blade will be useless when BFL starts to mass produce the Jalapenos,
Simple calc,
50 BTC = 10 Ghash (Blade)
4 BTC = 5 Ghash (Jalapeno)
I'm more than happy to wait, as my ROI will be quicker than the ROI for the 50 BTC board, this 5 FPGA is a initial investment until my Jalapeno comes, then I will sell these and buy more Jalapenos, its a Win / Win situation for me
To be frank, ROI is not more than 4 and half months.
And you will have the option to upgrade to the latest at the end of 3 months
or
You have the option to sell your board to some companies which are desperate for FPGAs.
I can help you with that also.
Once you sell it, you get your ROI and the mined amount becomes your profit!

Regarding v42
So ... I had a look at the github and indeed it does dynamically adjust the MHz clock
So --icarus-timing will not fare well with that.
(as I mentioned it expects a constant MHz)
Since it can't even know what the MHz is it would be better to instead use a clock figure slower than it's slowest speed and a abort time of around 100 to ensure it's under the speed it always runs at.
So something like:
--icarus-timing 2.5=100
It will show the MH/s incorrectly, but it will still hash at the highest rate it can.
Anyone know if you can get more information out of the Lancelot other than just send it work and wait for the reply?
I guess once I've finished the code - (almost done but haven't had a lot of time today to do that last bit: sort out the chip initialisation) - I'll look at the github and see if there are other commands you can send to it ...
The random unknown MHz is actually problematic

Higher accepts true, (slightly higher HW errors).
Keep it running for days for the U values to converge,
According to Kano, A cgminer developer:
Every time work is aborted (no nonce found before timeout, or an LP occurs) it has to determine how many hashes were done.
The Hs value is used to calculate that
Every time it finds a share ... it knows how many hashes were done since the share value tells that.
However, the number of shares Accepted, Rejected, Stale, HW, U, pretty much everything else is correct.
Yes you can estimate your hash rate from U - but you'd have to run for a few days to ensure it's close.
Even after a few hours it can (rarely) be out by 10% (which is a lot)
anyway yep Hashes/s is simply (2^32) * U/60 (for 1 diff shares)
U is only accepted shares.
A, R, SS and HW are all independent.
To work out the HW % = HW / (A + R + SS + HW)
Some improvement over 400 Mhps in reality.
If you still think its 1Ghps , i humbly submit.

It may sound stupid but i am little bit confused of values i see. As you noted with new bitstream and timing 2:70 Mhs reporting will not be correct. To make things easy, assuming that cgminer shows correct values for my gpu as follows:
MHS av MHS 3s Accepted Hardware Errors Utility
391.03 391.16 6,129 0 5.55/m
For my best lancelot board values are as follows:
MHS av MHS 3s Accepted Hardware Errors Utility
506.35 662.20 6,651 131 6.02
What about calculating Lancelot performance in following way
Lancelot Utility/GPU Utility*GPU MHS av
6.02/5.55*391.03 = 424 Mhs
What about HW errors - are they taken into account when calculating utility. In my case for Lancelot they are 1.97% (131/6,651*100). Shall i do something like:
424/100*98.03=415.64

use --timing-short for better hash rate values and more share submissions (more Accepted), thats what I used on my boards, first 2 boards use the latest firmware, i could not update the rest as I had to return the cable to my friend (he's doing some professional FPGA work)
anyways, what I personally care is the ROI and this board ROI is 3 and half months, which is pretty good
already recovered around 5% of my investment in 1 and a half weeks.
I'd really suggest going with Wilson as he got me a very good deal, he also got me free power adapter (worth $20) and shipping also was free (worth $70)

Hello everybody!

Err,
need to quote whole post = NO
I dont know why his boards are submitting so less per minute, anyways,
Let me show you my screenshot if that helps you understand,
HAVE A LOOK AT THE NUMBER OF SHARES GETTING SUBMITTED PER MINUTE
If its a Lancelot made by blackarrow,
Blackarrow did offer an upgrade, if he started selling ASICs.
1Ghps is a cgminer display error according to the designer.
Blackarrow did offer an upgrade, if he started selling ASICs.
1Ghps is a cgminer display error according to the designer.
Apart from bogus speeds reported by cgminer (900Megahashes), it actually started yielding better results... It had quite a lot of dropped packets but more accepted packages than the other devices.
Guess which one is running v42 firmware ?
So if its a Lancelot its a 400 Mhps FPGA, after the firmware update.Guess which one is running v42 firmware ?
not really, once you upgrade the firmware it submits more shares, but a few are stale, but if you're mining on a PPS pool that wont matter, also you can see blackarrows posts towards the end, he also proves that the hash rate reported matches the number of shares sent per minute
the best thing about this deal is the shipping cost is toooo less, Wilson has worked out a very good deal for the boards and is offering free power supply and is offering a legit deal, I have spoken to him for over an hour today and I have already bought 4 through him.
At least an hour.
The speed is of course an estimate, the A over a day or 2 will tell you if it is accurate.
However, 3 HW with 12 A is pretty bad too (20%)

Apart from bogus speeds reported by cgminer (900Megahashes), it actually started yielding better results... It had quite a lot of dropped packets but more accepted packages than the other devices.

I'd think that might mean it might shorten it's life?
Is there a way to clock that firmware down a little to get that HW number a lot lower?
Also the incorrect MH/s could be directly related to the firmware - the standard Icarus firmware divides the work in 2 on 2 FPGAs and runs at a constant MHz
I'm of course assuming that's what the standard Lancelot firmware does also and it seems to match that by reporting the MH/s correctly.
Do you know what that firmware does (and also do you have details about how to upload it? I have a jTag cable also that I have never used ...)
Product name?

not sure about that, btw how is your 150 ghash ASICminer ? I herd about that from someone..

another important thing Wilson mentioned is that,
these boards can be resold easily as they are FPGA (can be reprogrammed for other things unlike ASIC) and will be profitable for a long time with 24 watts power usage

Its approx 4btc @ 1ghash! Delivery within 20 days at the max!
Will return the change if i am left with any.
After 3 months, your boards can be upgraded!

FPGA upgrade to what?
Nothing?
HI,
I had spoken to Wilson earlier today,
2 x Spartan6 FPGA
2 chips
FPGA -> ASIC or QuadFPGA (4 months or so)
Also, another thing about these boards you have to keep in mind is,
1. The hashrate reported on cgminer will be 400 Mhash unless you upgrade the firmware which fixes it to 1 Ghash, this is ONLY A DISPLAY / HASHRATE CALC error as cgminer estimates the hashrate and nothing else, the miner will submit about 6 - 7 shares per minute
Estimated time currently needed to reach 0.01 BTC ($1.35) --> 844 Minutes(s)
Estimated time currently needed to reach 1 BTC ($134.75) --> 55 Day(s)
Its approx 4btc @ 1ghash! Delivery within 20 days at the max!
Will return the change if i am left with any.

[Moderator note: Do your own research before buying. He's selling x2 Spartan boards (Lancelots), which only can do 400~MH/s. The 1GH/s comes from a CGMiner display bug]
Cheers,
Wilson
[Moderator note 2: Kano, one of the CGMiner dev has confirmed that this is never gonna work]
Right, so you either fudged the figures or didn't wait for the numbers to settle.
The run time shown is 2 minutes so the numbers mean NOTHING.
You cannot get 1GH/s out of a any pair of Spartans I have seen anywhere.
500MH/s is possible, 1000 is SCAM.
I wrote the software in the screen grab and I know how it works.
... looks like it's time to go visit that other thread also ...

I am confident as i have gotten the result! Not forcing anyone to buy!
You may pm me if you are interested!
This post will be out in next 24hrs!
Out in next 24hrs? You mean your gonna run with the money in 24hrs never to be seen again?You may pm me if you are interested!
