Some news about X-Box:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdk2dmNcyPI

Vidz shows 4x3x4 = 48 chips AM3 per miner so approx 400GH/s. Then miner screen shows 750GH/s for 2 miners, gives apprx 375GH/s , but some chips are missing on one board.
This would indicate around 400GH/s per X-Box. Power drawn should be around 460W at wall.

They're not as silent as R-box, but they're more powerful Tongue

The last unknown is the price. For now, I have the feeling, about the timeline, it would be ready soon (2 or 3 weeks).

same power tip from what i read.

my question is will there be a blade with these say 300-400gh?

i grabbed hundreds of am sticks from you last year. a few am blades.

I am looking for s-1 replacements so a 300 to 400gh blade would be nice.

RockMiner will be coming out with a blade-like product soon. Hopefully by end of June, but I don't have official time frames and you shouldn't take my word as such.
The R-BOX product should not be compared to blade systems etc...
this is a consumer product. introduce someone to Bitcoin/mining, gift it etc... etc...

Yes, there will be a bigger miner "X-box" :

Source

It is not strictly speaking a blade, this is dedicated for home miner like RBox. Unlike a blade this is not really fitted to have a lot and stack them, it is more a plug and play miner.

It is in design stage, it could be ready in a month if everything is OK.
specification expected (very speculative, not official)
300 - 400 GH/s
350 - 450 W @wall
400 - 600 USD

We will have more precise figures in the future. For now, this is a rough idea of the system and like CanaryInTheMine said, don't use my word.

I found this approach to be most efficient on windows:
1. download current cgminer from: http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/ unzip into a separate folder somewhere.
2. next, unzip and move the contents of the cgminer-win0.3.1.zip (from rockminer) into the folder from step 1. This will move and replace up to 17 files and will overwrite the standard cgminer distribution. Now you have a cgminer version that will work with r-box.
3. run cgminer and hash.

Will the modified cgminer still be able to run other devices (i.e., antminer U1/U2s), or should it be run as a separate instance?

You can run other devices.

Asked via PM as well: Do these use 2.1mm DC barrel plugs - the same as the Gridseed Scrypt ASICs?

Don't think I have any faith in ASICMiner anymore after the cube. I've bought multiple batches of 8 from you, and on the last batch I bought one was pretty much scratched up and not functional (http://imgur.com/5gZzFqh) but since it was your last batch and you have no replacement inventory I ask for refund on that one cube in which you responded with ship the damaged parts and you will replace it .. I did and then nothing. So I've been stuck with the .39 BTC metal box.

Good to hear from you! your replacements were shipped to you a Long time ago. I never heard back from you so I assumed you had received them... If you need to contact me you can PM or email me. this thread is for R-BOX miners.

You got a miner shipped to you, and I assume it was on time. That makes AM and Canary better then what... 75% of mining companies right off the bat? Canary has always been amazing from what I have seen.

+1 - Canary has been solid for me.
