So.. we are starting to get some power numbers:

“We’ve got two dies up on this. Right now we are clocking it at 700mhz and .84v core voltage. It’s doing 248Gh/s on only 2 dies! Half a Golden Nonce.

Consumption is around 300 watts total and 78C die temp.

So... we are looking at ~600W total for around ~500GH? Obviously the 25% extra hashrate is nice, but I thought we were expecting the total power to be under 1J/GH. 
I guess that isn't going to happen unless we underclock.

So essentially roughly the same power efficiency as KNC, shipped late and at higher cost.

So KNC wins, and will make much more money if there is ever a round #2 match...
Let's see if Cointerra gives HF an ass kicking at half the cost, they might even deliver by the end of the year

Hopefully they dialed in that SMT machine from that video or we might have some power issues.

I think they and everyone saw that happen Smiley ... It reminds me of the demo curse, something always happens when the camera is watching Smiley

50 more runs of those two trays and B1 will be complete (though it looks like two of those boards still need asics placed).

Boards are getting baked no refund

yup, they will get them to us just under the wire....

My daughter will say, Dadda, come play with me and my new toys.. and I will be, sorry honey, i have to try and get the shiny new BabyJets running to get our 200 large back.

edit.. feel sorry for the guy that bot 200 of them just after I did....  whats that, 1M usd

The problem w/ HF was never the hardware, they seem to have some talented engineers.  The problem was the sleazy and dishonest way they went about selling off stock they knew they couldn't deliver upon.

Intentional or not, I think the stock analogy is appropriate.  Keeping my head out of the TOS and MPP weeds, that's kind of the way I look at it, and maybe HF should too.

Lets just face it, not everyone is always going to be happy and its easier to be negative in a forum than give kudos to those who are working hard to bust ass and get stuff done.

electronics related.

do you seriously think that knc's or bitfury's first setups looked any better? thats the way those tweakings are done! and i am pleased with their performance and their communications.

First , again comparing it with others?
If others sucks , so should we?

the point is, they dont suck just cause they show you unpolished pics from their bench. no asic-manufacturer that shows us such pic sucks! why should they? thats just how this business works.


In a previous post you were wondering :

Just posted on twitter

First Baby Jet - LIVE at Inside Bitcoins booth 21 in Vegas!!!!

Just a display case probably. I'd be surprised yet relieved to see it hashing.

I'd be surprised if its not hashing.

Did it?

lol! cause they didnt show us a running miner they suck by showing us work bench pics? thats not even close to being logically connected.

Golden Nonce board bringup: board on the test bench. http://t.co/RvlUJCHiKG
On top of the fans in this image:


are those cobwebs or is that smoke?
Looks like tape.

Yeah , it's tape , god knows what's doing there.
But , couldn't they come with something more professional looking nevertheless?
This looks like Alf's spacecraft! And that thing crashed.

lol! you have no clue about this business, do you?

You mean computer related , electronics  related or HashFast related?
