Price per board was hinted at anywhere from around 1000-2000$. So with 3 chips, you would need 3 boards.

So the chips are free... but the PCBs are 1000 to 2000 each?
Seems like there is quite a bit of profit being taken on the backs of the MPP.
Why so expensive? What are they made of ground up unicorn horns?

I was told pay for board/assemble etc. Don't think it comes in multi chip board. That would be much better.

Figure out the rest Roll Eyes

Does that mean we will need to buy 3 more baby rigs to house the +3 chips ? OR could we pay the difference for a multi chip sierra board from day one ?

They should just automatically give everyone 4x chips in 3 months.  It would make everything much simpler. They're going to need to do it anyway.

yep.  they're planning on it.

and they can afford to.  they've gone small.

Ah! So I *was* right that some enterprising group or person could make a dent in the Group Buys forum (and add needed variety) by putting together a GB for bare rigs for HF units.

Told you mofos Uncle DZ had a good plan. SMH, I'd do it myself if I wasn't up to my eyeballs trying to start this GBEC cooperative. Anyway: I'll help provide escrow protected GB shares at half of my usual 1% fee to anyone smart enough & forward looking enough to be vetted as a GBC & do the groundwork on these HF bare rigs I was telling system builders & GBCs to prepare for (1% BTCrow escrow fees would still apply).

Do tell.  Grin

BTW, John or Cara: me & 14 other miners who co-own a HashFast rig are still waiting for an update to the order list from well over 2 weeks ago. I know you folks are busy but: Can we please get an update to this?

i'll let the company spill the good news beans.

yeah John is so busy making big sales.  he'll update the list as soon as he can.  don't worry about your spot in the queue.

the only units "potentially" left available are the one's on backorder.

this means that HF estimates that the "yield" per wafer is expected to be higher than originally expected.  thus, for example, if 210 dies on average are expected to pass inspection out of a total of 250 per wafer, HF actually expects perhaps 230 to pass.  this would be due to the high integrity of the pre-fab simulations.

Tape out is an incredibly important step.  Especially since it looks like we may have a chance to catch KNC; if they're late.
Most important thing for customers would be if they do not have more than 15 days gap! Of course this hurts people invested in KnC but it would be the best for customers in general long term.
The same applies if Cointerra could catch up like this with HF, it is a double edge sword cypherdoc Wink

HashFast's Golden Nonce GN ASIC successfully taped-out yesterday, Wednesday the 28th, and has been released for 28nm fabrication to a well-known, leading-edge foundry.  More details will follow in next week's joint press release.

So does that mean hashfast is ahead of schedule?

with the additional released inventory already down to only 6 units left, along with the backorders, i think the marketplace has spoken.

Sales have been incredibly strong over the last 24 hours, but we will continue to release inventory for orders that we do not receive payment for.
