Screenshot of your order with your info removed.
Is that possible?

Well, I'm not trying to badmouth anyone, just seems like on it's face,  a bit of a stretch. Considering $8500 is involved and there's alot of people getting burned in this space on one thing or another, that's a big stretch. Honestly, I do hope it's real and it works as advertised.

You don't mind to show those emails with your personal info removed.

Am I the only person that cringes when someone says "only $8,500"?

Clearly I'm in the wrong line of work...

The invoice says nTeK but the transaction via credit card (on statement as charge) and email receipt say Revuprender

Also by another previous email they have been testing  prototypes for the last month or so. The board are manufactured in California which was confirmed and according to that company they can print 20,000 boards in 1-2 days and then assemble so again not to far off.

His idea was strictly to create and on demand assembly line. Such as you order a unit. It's submitted they order a certain amount of boards to be made they get sent over night to assemble in case and test it then shipped.  In sort terms

Ntek claims to be a VA company. RevUP is a company registered in Rhode Island with a VA address.
Ntek, doesn't exist anywhere, it's not a company.  Just a website and a guy with a made up name. So if he has a company, RevUP,why do business under another name? I own a small consulting business, I can't register under company X and do business under company Y. There's alias' and subsidiaries, but they still have to be registered somewhere. So, I'd be curious if your invoice or receipt says nTek, or RevUP?  If it says nTek, I'd be a bit worried, as it's not a business entity, therefor, there's nothing to go back on if the deal go south.

THis is just my opinion, I don't think it's a complete scam, I think he's bought a bunch of chips. But making it all work under a reasonable amount of power and manageable heat and being reliable over the long haul? I think it's months off at best. By his own admission he's just having boards made, seems more concerned about design and logos than a working machine.  I think he's being a bit optimistic on if his idea can actually work. There's alot more to it than just stuffing 40 chips on a board and hoping for the best.

Ntekcomputers.com and revuprender.com have the same address are located in the same place owned by the same person. Not different states

niemand geeft waar wordt sneeuwt! spraken over Bitcoin mijnwerkers niet het weer

BenTuras, sneeuwt het op dit moment ook in Rotterdam?
Het sneeuwt hier in Groningen.

I had a talk with Ry of nTek computers and agreed with him that I will do an independent and honest review.
I have done a review of the Antminer before.

I don't think he has any yet. I believe he bought a bunch of ASIC chips and is attempting to put them together. But the entity nTek is a non-entity, even though he claims to be a subsidiary of RevUP in another state, but I still wouldn't say he's legit because the nTek entity doesn't exist, how can you do business under a name that doesn't exist, aka you can't.. It seems he's afflitated with this other company ReevUp in RI, but why not just sell under that name. I can only think of 1 or 2 reasons for that, neither of them are good. 
 I dunno. I believe him to a point, but the fact that he runs under a non-business is a major strike, the pictures are dark and obviously Photoshopped, but I believe he's said there isn't actually any product yet anyway, so those pics are expected to be a Photoshop. My gut says it's 1 or 2 guys who bought some chips and are attempting to assemble an enduser product, I think there's months of work ahead, how to manage heat, how close they can be, supply chain issues, the chips he bought he'll need 40 of them in 1 box to do 1.2Th/s, that's alot of engineering work to get that all to work right. Mabey it'll work out for him. I wouldn't be sending any BTC his way , mabey it's just me. He does say he'll take CC, that's a tick in the good column I guess.

I bought one of these on ebay and called the guy to cancel. I was very hesitant because the story sounded fishy. Does anyone know if these actually turned up? I am very interested in seeing.

Liquid nitrogen more like! 

Very cold air or liquid cooling

i think overclocking is safe if your unit is in a nice chilled air conditioned environment ..

Why bother maxing out a chip anyway there is no point. You lower the life span for one and for 2 wouldn't it just be easier to get another unit or even another couple boards if you wanted something quicker instead of trying to max out a chip constinatly.

All I know is I am not even going to bother over clocking it. I am happy with it running 1.2 even at 1000w my electric is free cause my company will be paying for it haha

Check out the burned boards/chips trying to reach that theoretical 40GH they seem to be destroying them trying to pipe 40W through each chip.
