Yes, this is exactly what we need. We're having a breath of fresh air not having to deal with your bullshit, piece of filth Chinese ASIC companies anymore by building our own miners with GPUs. Do you really think we want to go back to supporting you scammers by letting you build PCs for us with common off the shelf PC miners?
Anyone can build a 7x 480 rig for cheaper than you'll be selling.
Fuck off, "Zoey".
Dude,
You are way out of line. What is the purpose of going off like this?
All these ad hominum attacks are illogical[1]
Yes, this miner is pointless for some segment of the buying public, but for the business administration types and others who need an out of the box solution it's suitable. Have you not noticed the ETH and Zcash forums are flooded with newbies on their way to the gold rush? This is precisely the target population.

You're welcome to your opinion, but I don't agree with it. This is another bullshit scam. Businesses who would want to invest in mining aren't going to buy this unless they're as dumb as this product. Real businesses have real IT departments with technicians which are more than qualified to build computers, which is all this is. A glorified PC. A glorified PC being sold with bullshit promises like "worlds first graphics card miner" and "graphics cards but superior than normal cards". BS on top of more BS. Mining LTC on GPUs? Really?! Best case scenario is a custom BIOS with custom fans, which we can all do with 30 minutes of reading and 30 minutes of execution. Unless they're going to try and make us believe they produced their own cards that would somehow be better than what AMD or MSI can muster, which is laughable considering the country of origin and the type of people behind this product. Scam artists.
Anyone flooding forums to hop on the train who can't build a PC today has failed already, unless they take the time to learn. This product will not help them at all. We're all quick to jump to the same conclusions when it comes to new ASIC devices being announced by new manufactures, and we're just about never wrong. This has the same risk, even though they're using common off the shelf components that everyone can buy. They could collect funds and walk away. They can't even post proper details, specs, or prices. There's no guessing involved here. Off the shelf parts that anyone can buy + a custom steel or aluminium chassis + 3-6 screamer Delta type fans and probably a cheap used server PSU.
TL;DR - Don't be a lazy idiot, learn how to build a computer. All it takes is a 20 minute youtube video. You'll educate yourself, and save a lot of money and risk VS buying junk like this.
I come off as angry because, well, this angers me. All this is is a blatant attempt at ripping newbies off.
Wellllllllllllllllllllllll,
There is still one flaw IMHO underpinning your argument, given X set of abilities, how do you cost your time? This is why the majority of us don't buy car kit and aircraft kits, if we want to travel somewhere. On the food side, it's still harder to make your own hamburger in house as opposed to going to In and Out, even though conceptually, it's pretty straight forward.
