Topic: Novedades BFL: The Monarch PCI Card 600 GH/s (Read 4659 times)

The current expected date for our chips out of the foundry is early December. Obviously nothing will be shipping in November. Projected target is end of December but that is, as usual, subject to change. When I have more info I will share it.

Just to update everyone on where we stand with the Monarch at the moment.

Current chip production has an expected delivery date in early/first half of December. We expect to have chips at that time and hope to have our first units shipped out the door by the end of December. We did not reach our goal of November delivery. Unlike our first generation ASIC devices, we already have the vendors in place and ready to go, along with the substrate design and manufacturing slotted in and geared up. Right now, we are not anticipating any issues but unexpected things do pop up. If they do, I will let people know as soon as I have definitive information regarding that, otherwise we are on target for a December release. If anything changes, I will let everyone know, via this thread, as soon as I have the information.

Let me reiterate that if you are uncomfortable with pre-ordering for cutting edge, custom designed technology and all the risks that it implies, please do not place a pre-order and wait until the products are shipping and available. If you do choose to pre-order, please understand that unforseen problems and delays can and do happen and we will do our best to alert everyone to them when we encounter them and have had time to assess what the impact will be on the timeline.

Our production capacity is geared up and ready to go. With the extreme simplicity of the Monarch compared to our 65nm product line, we do not anticipate any difficulties in getting units built and out the door in a rapid fashion. Compared to our current generation, assuming no parts shortages, we should be able to product more than 1000 Monarchs per day. For reference, the Monarch should use ~12 screws and two discrete parts (board and HSF), compared to even our most simple device, the Jalapeno, which has over 20 discrete parts, assembly is trivial and should pose no issues.

... una vez más, si usted no se siente cómodo con nuestra forma de hacer las cosas, por favor, no haga una preorden con nosotros. Espere hasta que el producto esté disponible para su entrega inmediata...

Late November/Early to Mid December
Initial group orders start to ship to the very first orders placed. Keep in mind, these orders will be from the chips that were acquired through the bullet run, so there will be a limited number of chips/boards available.

Late December/Early January
Chips from the fab, going through the standard process, start to arrive at the slice/bump/packaging facility. See step 2, but you can skip step 3 at this point.

Late January/Early February
We begin shipping much larger quantities of orders on a first come first served basis.

Pre-orders for the next generation Bitcoin miners. Not scheduled to ship until long after current 65nm generation is shipped in full. http://www.butterflylabs.com/monarch/

Its seems the vouchers have not expired yet, so as long as they are showing on your dashboard you can use them. I will let you know when they will be pulled.

Ok, no es lo que dan a entender en el FAQ, pero claro eso es todo publicidad.

Bueno me acabo de dar cuenta de que la cosa puede salir mas rentable, como comprador de los primero meses tengo un 25% de descuento, así que si no está mal la tienda online el monarch me saldría por 3598$. Keep on dreaming.

Un saludo

vitruvio, espero que también te hayas dado cuenta que la cantidad a pagar ( por ende, a rentabilizar) de impuestos ( +21% si vives en España) también es mayor.

Pues mi opinión es que si quieres ir a lo ultimo nunca vas a minar porque siempre van a ir saliendo cosas nuevas.

Es como si ahora que van a llegar chips de Avalon y después de estar esperando pues los vendo para pillar ese cacharro, si no tardara un año en llegar podría salir rentable, pero en esto tiempo es BTCs de menos y opino que mas vale pájaro en mano.....

Con lo minado hasta que lleguen esos cacharros podrías tener ya ganado para pillar algún equipo de esos eh ir ampliando, pero vamos es mi forma de ver, cada cual sabrá lo que hace.
