Hold on a second Loshia before you scare everyone with your provocative statements.

Yes we've said that " Now We are in distress, and may need some help from the community".

But you're contribution has been anything but that, and our miners work fine and you should be the first one to know that and admit that of course.

WhoAAAAAAAAA there, Mr. On the Level, it's up to you to show, thus prove to the community that your 1.2 TH/s bitcoin miners are working, preferably via video you promised two months ago. Remember that promise? To date, nary a properly working 1.2 TH/s AMT bitcoin miner has been seen hashing in the wild via video.

On a lighter note, hope sales are brisk from your brissed friends, stemming from your booth at the Bitcoin Expo in Toronto. For those having trouble finding it, simply follow the Red Bull empty cans trail.

It is so ridiculous Phinn Wink

Or both you and me are carsy as he'll or Grin

I am going to visit my shrink these days I need strong pills obviously
I am wandering what pils other folks are taking Grin

I require a new miner im not happy with this equipment that has been sent out to me. none of the boards actually do anything that comes close to mining. i want either a full refund so i can buy a several 200ghs ant miners or a fully working amt miner that actually hashes. not happy folks

mellorbos/regtables miner works fine with my rm1000 psu attached so there is no reason why my boards dont run other than they are faulty. ive tried their backplane and ribbon cable.ive tried my boards individually. ive tried everything. losing patience now rapidly

Dude,
It is not quite sure how mell works. What is sure that it almost works and works much much better than yours
About erg tables one I could not state anything
A friendly advise ask for refund and go for ants you want regret Wink

But amt will never give your money back

Or the screws *were * there and are now rolling around in the packaging or delivery truck. Don't suppose the screws have star-washers so they can't shake loose do they?

Found these under the flap at the bottom of the box.

Hopefully the blades banging each other during shipping didn't damage them too much.

They need to be using something like these machine screws w/star-washers that are part of them http://www.mcmaster.com/#95345a047/=riqrv4 also available with sheet metal threads.

The rig AMT shipped to me. Notice how the left and right side are all bent out of shape.

Notice the power connecter on the right side is completely gone.

Notice that the some of the boards looked warped out of shape.

Notice the right most heat sink in bent out of shape. Notice the white plastic on the right.. that's the stripped out power connector.

Notice on the second to the left board, there's this black piece.... that a piece of the disintegrated fan.

Notice the paper on the right, that's what AMT considers as padding. Well it didn't help avoid having the rightmost heat sink get bent out of shape!

UNBELIEVABLE!

Tip to AMT, use bubble wrap first around the entire unit, then pack in foam peanuts or styrofoam on all eight corners.

Paper is not padding!!

AMT,

What is your official response on why items are being sent out from you with such poor packing. I believe everyone wants to know what happened and what you will do to resolve this problem originating from your center. The way that it currently is being packed looks like its intentional so that you can blame FedEx for your hardware issues.

The community is stepping up by helping to troubleshoot and get everyone miners up. So you need to declare that customers will receive their hardware at least in one piece.

Awaiting your official response.

From the look of the picture the capacitors are busted too. Some of the cards could be broken. Makes no sense why they would intentionally do that. But yea some declaration of this and how they aim to rectify this mess might be a good start. This is really really bad for everyone. On top of the delays and all the other crap we have had to deal with the risk of getting broken parts in the mail.

As I am going to pick mine up I will speak to the build quality of the hardware once I got it. I am hoping to do a nice clean review of the hardware without the company drama. At least based on the merit of the hardware itself. That also presumes the build quality will be solid and such when I pick it up. But yea an official reply would be good to address this. What is the plan of action to address this. This isn't like a 5 dollar thing we are getting. This is thousands of dollars turned to junk. Seems like its packed like a 5 dollar item vs something of actual value.

I ok then I'll probably go with a 1000w and a 800w just so I have the extra overhead.

The following are good for all 5 boards if you can find one:

Which power supply is recommended for the 1.2?

As isawhim said 25 amps per module not Overclocked with 15% reserve
For 5 modules you need 110-120 amps at 12 v as minimum.
Depending on particular psu and it is rating at 12v rails it would be 1300 - 1500 W
That is for 5 modules
AMT can be so kind to give some light about ACTUAL. POWER consumption?
PS: I suggest to wait for official amt response about it because nobody has measured it yet except them Grin

But as rule of thumb the powerful is always better except that you are the one to pay the bill unfortunately

The reason I didn't buy chips and build one myself is because I don't have time for this crap.

I need make and models.

So the easiest way is to plug just one module and measure it then Wink

because amt are unable to do that for some reason Grin

NO miner is ever sent out without boards screwed in, period. This is ridiculous.

Obviously it has happened.

With the kind of power output we are talking about here, seems to be a more practical if messy option to cool these things in mineral oil (immersion cooling). I am strongly considering it considering the heat these things likely put out. That also assumes they work from the get go.

EDIT: added this link for further info. Someone already has a bitcoin rig doing this. http://www.instructables.com/id/Mineral-Oil-Submerged-PC/?ALLSTEPS

I have not had huge success getting answers on here, but I was wondering what the status of my order is. It is #847. I know this may not "be the place for order inquiries", but other means have gotten me a response so delayed that it ceased to matter, or no response at all. I am glad to see production and shipment is finally coming along, and I see all these people talking about order numbers 1000+ and I am just wondering about my order that I placed in the first days of December. I have been along for this whole ride, and I am just wondering when my order will ship.

Thanks

+1 We're in the same boat. I was told I would receive a tracking number last week and I have received nothing as of yet.

Best thing to try is ringing them on skype thats what i did.

IF they had larger clients I wonder what the experience was for those? A smooth delivery? But seems like everyone's miners so far took a massive hit. These kits or full systems got the crap kicked out of them. Its like the Fedex guys were Ronaldinho or something.

With all this documented information its not a good thing to have users getting together getting pissed about this. AMT should just pack em up like fedex suggests. Bubblewrap and a cardboard box is not enough.

Again for those close enough (within a 5 hour drive) to pick up I would really recommend it. At least then you can inspect it before you leave the facility or their office and accept and address it on the spot. If there is damage in transit, well then that's certainly on those picking up at that point. But sadly this does not need to happen if there is just a little diligence and more care in the packing process.
