Hosted Miners are back, and you can now upgrade your hosted miner to another hosted miner Smiley

it's 499.95 + whatever they (GAW) makes with your miners for 21 days or more depending on when exactly you place your order (GAW will most likely be mining with them until they need space/room or has a seller for them), so you end up paying more than 499.xx if you upgrade early or on the 18th and they end up making more the sooner you give them up- anybody seeing this differently , LMK.

GAW - any better options for those that has felt the most sting since April drop of prices ?

Yeah this makes it not very appealing as I will be losing 1365$ at the current rate if I take all mine down for 3 weeks.

I just don't understand people.
If an offer doesn't fit your wallet or doesn't fit your electricity bill why bother buying?

All decent businesses would rather hear a potential customer speak up about an issue they see with a product, than to stay silent and simply go elsewhere. GAW might be able to reply with something that clarifies the situation sufficiently to entice me and other customers concerned about the current stated specs to keep up to date with the progress on product release.

I don't see why you felt compelled to complain.



i agree with you. NOthing wrong with letting GAW know your concerns and see how they can address them

In regards to the hosted upgrade is there going to be any downtime on our current blades before the Black Widows come up if we upgrade? Also, what is the warranty on the GAW brand miners? I believe I saw you say somewhere they would have a 1 year warranty.

Thanks

Josh said your blade would go offline on the day you'd order the upgrade. So if you order today you would have no hashes untill 9th of june (roughly 3 weeks).

Cheers

Can I ask what you are intending to correct about the 'Big Gun'? In terms of performance issues and power usage, what numbers are you aiming for before you release it?

It's just that you can spend less than that right now on an Innosilicon A2 90 that'll hash happily at 80+Mh/s for 800w of power. There are forum users here who are dependable and reliable sellers and, if wanted, hosters, for these Terminators, yet you are trying to shift 5 100Mh units that'll draw so much electricity the power bill at the end of each month is going to be a huge issue and, what's more, they are not going to be shipped until June?

Surely you can't be happy with those numbers yourself GAW, so why expect your customers to be?




Sometimes I just don't understand people.

If an offer doesn't fit your wallet or doesn't fit your electricity bill why bother buying? Just go on and buy some other machine which does fit your needs.

GAW announced a 100Mhs machine with the particular power draw, if these specs aren't what you're looking for, don't stop and look further.

just my 2cents

Same here, but in regards to you.

Do you not run numbers? Prices, Hashes and electric draw? If you can combine 2 War Machines to make a Big gun but the big gun is under performing (100 instead of 108) and uses MORE power (2800 instead of 2500) Yes, you SHOULD be asking questions like this guy did. Some people throw money at miners, some people do their due diligence.

But it could be the blind bat customers like you who keep this company afloat Smiley

GAW announces some specs, they also announced they won't release more specs until completely sure about them.

They announced:
War Machine: 54mh/s @1280 +/- 10%
Big Gun: 100mh/s @2800w +/- 10%

Wouldn't they just release a lower number if the number was actually lower.

My point being, GAW gives you specs upon which you can make your descision. And if you feel like other vendors have better specs than go ahead and order with them.

And yes I do run the numbers based on the info which is given.

How much power draw on the pre production unit you have then?

Did prices go up since the big gun was added? Like the week 3 war machine.

Are those HW error's or am I reading that wrong?

Yea all I'm seeing is a 13% rejection rate and a shitload of hardware errors...

Guys, this is not a production unit, its still is being debugged. We are on track for next week Smiley

Nice enought trade isn't it ;-)

Hmmmm choices....
Choice 1)  Continue using the blade for the 1 year of hosting, pay nothing
Choice 2)  Upgrade for $500, move up to 13MH/s
Choice 3)  Take delivery of blade and sell it before all the big boys arrive.

2800 watts? holy fudge nuggets...
You can't even run this off a normal house circuit.
Who would run this type of mining equipment in their house?
A 42U rack of this is more power than a house has anyhow from a 200A circuit.
Suggest keeping these in the data center and not moving them to your house.

'The right to privacy matters'
Yeah I guess all of the company profits weren't reinvested in Project Prime, some went to project Buy Josh A Ferrari.  :lol

At least you picked the right Ferrari...maybe when the new GAW ASICs ship you'll be able to upgrade to a McLaren? Tongue

I should really start selling shovels instead of getting my hands dirty down the pit....  Roll Eyes

Have not made a dime from this company yet (I wish), in fact, I have personally invested close to 1m to help lock in a low price for all your new miners Smiley

I have build and sold many other successful companies Smiley

Sorry if it didn't come across, my comments were supposed to be tongue-in-cheek. Much respect Josh, as someone who has built and sold a software company I know it's nothing like as easy as people think, not begrudging you the rewards that come from all that work in the slightest! Smiley

I am of course envious of your 458 but it at least shows you have taste! Wink

From my personal experience I can say GAW are a great company to do business with, and how open and interactive you are with the community is very refreshing. Keep up the great work mate.  Cool

(NB: Cynics, I was not paid to write that recommendation  Kiss)

Why does literally every post saying something good about GAW also say "I was not paid to write this"

I have been around on this site long before GAW.   I have had more the 2k in orders with GAW.   They make a lot of mistakes with the orders, but they fix the

mistakes.

So far they have paid me  about 300 usd for the errors they made  with my 2k in orders.  So they did pay me for errors they made!

As I type I am still attempting to get the latest error fixed.  This is a small error I was offered a $10 coupon.   Four separate times.  Only one coupon was honored.

While 3x  $10 coupons seem to be very small problem.  It does become annoying.   My ebay business works do to my ability to offer very low prices for gear.

Last year  I learned how to sell Asic's buy multiple orders in small amounts every time the price drops.  This way you never get stuck with big price cuts.

Never buy in bulk  China will under cut you before the order arrives.

  So when I get an offer for a 10 coupon on two $60 dollar gridseeds.  Or when I get an offer on one 60 dollars gridseed. I want that coupon.  They have yet to correct this latest mistake.   I do not mind the mistakes as they have fixed them .  The prices work and I continue to sell my pair of gridseeds with a brick cables and custom software on ebay at a small profit.

They are suffering from too much volume too few workers.  This makes for quality control issues.  At least they try to fix the problems.  

I only wish   that 1 of 5 orders were wrong not 5 of 7.
 I will still continue to use them.  Hopefully they will fix this coupon issue after reading this.  I will then order more gridseeds.


COMPARE TO BFL  and it is a joke as GAW is next to GOD or at least Superman.  Good Josh {GAW} please show up evil Josh {BFL}  Give me the coupon so I can buy the gridseeds.

I was contacted by GAW last night they fixed this error and I ordered more gridseeds..  Thank you
