I wonder if it will be more profitable to order the 27Gh/s model as there will be a longer line for the 54Gh/s one due to existing preorders.
September 29, 2012, 02:36:43 PM
If I were to speculate on power consumption based on past offering would be at 60 watt to 80 watt per 54GH/s device..
Tom, please give us at least the power dissipation estimated at ASIC design stage.
My guess is that the 54GH/s will consume 150-300 Watt, but this is something I can live with :-)

Order placed - waiting for more cash to hit my bank account so I can make a bigger order 
Will I be able to combine orders to save on shipping?

I was leaning toward the bASIC - have seen cablepair active and helpful around Bitcoin for a while
this sealed the deal. order placed
thanks Tom

That's done it for me. Not a fan of pre-orders (aka zero return loans with substantial credit risk) as the usual methods of estimating credit risk are inapplicable given the 'return' is new tech that has too many unknowns. But with cablepair AND Graet... I'm in - assuming BTC can be used to buy....this sealed the deal. order placed
thanks Tom
Graet
And they can. I'm in - order placed. Will I end up returning to Ozcoin's top 20 like I used to be, Graeme?
@Tom - nice one, you've given me the confidence to take the plunge... I was going to continue buying FPGAs, which for my 90 BTC would have netted me less than 1 Gh/sec...
Looking forward to seeing the hardware!

And 2-3 weeks after the deisgn is completed I will have a handful of production boards made (this takes about 5 days) - with pictures on the web site and
these boards will be sent to the developers I mentioned before

This is how to engage the community with good will, and since good hardware deserves and is dependant on good software, appreciating the value the free software developers provide is critical. Well done.
Agreed, this open engagement is why I finally pulled the trigger on ordering a bASIC. I'm not a fan of pre-orders but appreciate Tom's openess with the community and it goes a long way towards being comfortable with the project's status.

Excellent, very happy to hear that my order for the original 27gh/s will get an upgrade

Great work!
Been hoping to get into ASIC mining, but was planning to wait for BFL to resolve its order log.
Ordered 2 *54GH/s.

Amazing news! Now let's just hope everything goes according to plan so that we will see shipments starting in Nov/Dec.

bASIC units will be assembled at the same plant that the ModMiner Quad's are, they will be produced in batches of 30-50 every 5-10 days and shipped out on first come first served basis
Hi Tom,
if I were to place a bASIC order now, do you think it will still be shipped with the first batch? Thanks.
yes.if I were to place a bASIC order now, do you think it will still be shipped with the first batch? Thanks.
I take it sales wern't exactly what you were hoping for? This new development def changes things! Expect a couple of sales from me in the near future.

Tom,
You came late with your announcement but with your information politic you beat your main competitor. If you are able to do the shipment as planed, I see chances that you are the first one shipping ASICs devices. Seems that I selected the right supplier. I ordered and paid 27GH. Getting twice as much is awesome.
Run Tom. Run!

Damnit. Looks like Tom's web site is down at the moment. Hopefully just a short term thing.
Now everything Works fine

This is amazing news. Faster and cheaper than bfl.
In all fairness, time will tell what Mh/s per watt will be on the different ASIC devices.
True. Assuming the cost of hardware per hash rate will vary by a factor of 2 across the various competition, the power per hash still seems like it will be the arguably as important (if not more).
I really woud like to see the specs for this hardware.

If I were to speculate on power consumption based on past offering would be at 60 watt to 80 watt per 54GH/s device..
P.S. Carbon credits anyone?
oh no.... not the carbon credits scam...

I think a lot of potential ASIC buyers were put off by the long BFL order list, at least I know I was. Hopefully cablepair sees an uptick in orders now.
