Topic: HashFast announces specs for new ASIC: 400GH/s - page 146. (Read 880461 times)

Huh? AFAIK, it's still going through. De Gallo's offices haven't communicated anything to indicate otherwise.

That's a possibility... And someone is also saying that those are boards HashFast produced:



If they actually were... Well, that's food for lawyers.

It doesn't make sense to ship old gen boards when you are working on producing Evo boards; i mean, what's the sense of producing old gen boards when you can make the new ones? But if HF is giving you old gen boards that they produced in the meanwhile... Why not?

They were selling them at a steep discount to the list price yesterday for the first 50 buyers there was a posting on the reddit/bitcoinmining.  Funny thing is, the product page selling these lists the warranty as DOA/0 days.  Makes you wonder if they are just pawning off a bunch of unreliable boards to suckers.

I think there to be at least 10 "companies" out there reselling HF ASICs/boards. We should make a list.

Where did this come from?

fast-hash... really? Is that the best they could come up with?

I also love how that board is a rev 2.1, rev 2.2 and rev 2.3 at the same time.

I'm not surprised at all considering instead of sending out Baby Jets to Batch 1 buyers that paid with BTC, they seemed to instead give refund checks in USD before buyers even requested, while moving USD orders up in the shipping queue and shipping them actual products.

waldohoover, have you shared that email with the fine folks over at hfrefunds.com? That sort of thing would be very useful to them.

Here is a copy of what i received.

That's interesting.  Whatever you do be careful if it actually is from HF it probably contains a bunch of additional terms and conditions they are trying to get you to agree to.

Funny part is the order number does match.

Yeah, that is some kind of phishing email or something making the rounds since all of your email addresses were leaked to the world.  Just delete it; the Order# probably doesn't even match your actual order number the one I got didn't.

So i just received an email to "Chris Bishop Has Sent You HashFast Refund Form for Order#*****" but i never asked for a refund. hmmm.

If i could make video diss against hashfast, i will use this one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rk2r6EohfT8 or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WPvi46u-DFI

Some one already get their refund back?

Batch 1 ?
Batch 2?
Batch 3?
Batch 4?

I am batch 3, still no refund, first request receive by Erin was 15 January 2014.
Still no refund. but i have lot of proof of e-mails they promis me but they lied.
Good for court papers

I from the Netherlands , but i have family live in California, 10 april i travel to San Fransisco to Hashfast, and Law office + Attorney General's Office in California.
Cant wait to sue them + blame them all for my travel cost and all the civic cost emotional cost.

Gonna sue them hard as i can!

Not sure if any on your looked at therenew products, but its funny on their site to see them shove in your face that it does 800ghash then when you go to buy it on the infomation page it says 675 +/- 20% typical hashrate. then says 800 max.

This is just a reminder that it is not too late to join our mass-action arbitration against Hashfast.

If you:
  1) Ordered a batch 1 device
  2) Have not received/Cashed a refund check
  3) Requested BTC refund
  4) Did not receive your device

PM me and I'll forward you directions on how to join. 

Is it possible that fan just broke? The fan is attached to that cooling block and radiator sitting on the chip. Can I just unscrew the fan part and replace it with just some fan at Best Buy? Or do I need to replace the whole thing? It makes this high-pitched ticking noise when I put my ear close to it. The radiator was pretty dusty.

The radiator gets really hot, but the fans just don't spin.

Damn, I'm sorry to hear you haven't gotten yours yet. This one was paid in BTC not sure if you did or not but maybe that had an effect.
Yes, it looks like the radiator would be mounted to the bottom as I did. Here's my set up:


here's my set-up before mounting the radiator:


So, I guess I did it right - placed in the bottom. But, I wasn't aware that I need to put the baby jet on its side. That makes sense. Thanks!

Problem is now, the radiator stopped working, I don't know if it overheated or something. You think it's dead? Or maybe turn it off for awhile, let it cool, and try again? Any way to "reset" it?

P.S. (The chips is oriented 180 degrees).
