Also if the chip is 25% more efficient than the current best in class S9 you would think they would be plastering advertisements whereever they could. They could completely take over the bitcoin hardware game if these machiens were legit.

The miner looks like a photoshopped version of a cooler master micro itx case. Even the sticker on the fan looks identical.

I vote scam.

Now that you mention it, yes, it does look like the micro-itx. But lets give them the benefit of a doubt.

I have heard that they were on show in Dubai. Does anyone know whether thats true?

If they are not vaporware then they should know the drill for introducing themselves:
Do the Tradeshow route to get (legit) press coverage to show the general public you at least built something.
Solicit known reputable users here to to a review of it with the usual conditions: Send it to them gratis, they do a yay/nay/meh review of it then either return it or if they really like it - buy the one they were sent.

Nobody’s heard of them yet and they have yet to contribute anything to the mining community. Until they actually complete a miner and sell it, they’re just a vaporware miner manufacturer. Hopefully they dont massively underperform like Innosilicon on release, though.

I looked up Zahrani group

http://www.alzahrani.com.sa/about.html

It says they manufacture spoons and stuff like that. I don't know whether this is the only Zahrani group though.

No other search turned up any result. Also tried calling them (cus I'm in Asia) no one answered as well.

Haven't had time to visit HK yet. If I do I'll probably give their HQ a visit


If you do let us know please,
it would be nice to have another company making miners.
i'm good for spoons...

If I remember the "about us" on their page (which won't load a darn thing without javascript, screw them and their web designer) they claim to have been around in the LA area but moved operations to China sometime last year. So who were they back then?

Looks like a nice miner though! Website is a little bit slow, but looks quite polished.

seems to me like they're designing it as a home miner (especially with the water cooled parts). one thing that i'm not sure about though is the fan working @ 6,200 RPM - seems very high to me, which might indicate it would be very noisy if aimed at being a home miner.

I would question why they haven't been active on this forum though. If they were going to introduce themselves as a new bona fide manufacturer, then they would definitely have a relationship with the forum, and most probably some of the more senior and serious miners.

So far all they have is a bunch of press releases and not much proof the chip exists.

 i was reading about theese new Syan miners, but never heard about this company. Did anybody have any experience with them or is it just another scam?
