So is this guy going to get the scammer tag or what?  I'm tired of seeing these trolls on BTCTalk.  This makes me actually want* to go onto BFL forums for a change.  Shiz.. if it was so easy, I should draw "ASIC" on a cardboard box and sell them for 100BTC/ea. =/

Not a scammer, he got it all wrong.

I say he deserves a scammer tag because he's purposely misleading his ad.  I'm pretty sure he/she is well aware that those Spartans are not capable of 1GH/s while he continues to mislead buyers.  He's taking advantage of the cgminer display bug, inflating the price based on the bug and trying to get something out of it.  If he advertised "FPGA 1gh/s miner that is realistically doing 400mh/s FOR SALE!" then I will take back my initial comment.

No, 2x Spartans can only do 400 MH's in total. They run at around 200MHZ each, so it's impossible for them to go to 1GH/s. Stop misrepresenting (and overpricing) the Lancelots - they're being sold at $350 each without bulk order.
+1 here. Trust me, man, i've made my calculations way before even opening a group-buy for ASIC chips. 2 Lacelot boards, that use the fasest Spartan6 FPGA chips available from Xilinx, WILL NOT work @ 1 GH/s! Anyway, i'm curious how will you sell 2 boards with 4 a total of FPGA chips, that cost at least 150 Eur each! It is possible to have a smaller quotation for them, if you buy'n'large, but it's impossible to reach the 4 btc (currently ~550 usd)!
Good luck getting a scammer tag, man!

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)

And just a quick point......
the shares can vary WILDLY depending on the block you  are currently mining, one of my miners swings from 1.7GH/s to 2.7GH/s
basically a 1GH/s swing and yet the actual board count and frequency remains the same......

So if I wanted to sell , I would do a screen shot at around the 2.7GH/s mark and it would be completely valid, even though I know the  base average is about 2.1GH/s

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?

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 ...

Thanks again for the clarification.  Smiley

Hope it will answers all your questions!
Or
Indian forum-> market place~>FPGA!
Follow the path!
All your answers will be answered.

Yeah, stop claiming silly claims. CGMiner has a reporting error according to kano. 2x Spartans cannot run at 1GH/s short of melting the boards or a major advancement in the bitstreams. The original seller, blackarrow here (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/discontinued-lancelot-heavy-duty-400-mega-hashes-2-x-fpga-mining-board-187549) only claimed 400 HM/s because it's what the boards can do.

PS: I'm currently running 10 x4 Spartan boards at a grand total of around 8.8 GH/s .

Warning added to deter noobs falling.

That should help!
Or you can enquire with dashing as he has bought my product.
And he has ordered in bulk!

And you can refer with the screen shot in that link!
And i suppose even pinwheel agrees with me and the product!

I will be left with change!
Will be returning it! I just gave an approx...

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.

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.

Hey!
Bulk ordering FPGAs! PM me if interested!
ASAP!
Each of 4btc each @ 1ghash each!  [Moderator note: Read the following posts 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]
Orders accepted with in 48hrs of this post!

Cheers,
Wilson
