So... what firmware/miner software combo is required for this exactly? I plan on using BFGminer, does this mean I have to manually compile Luke's latest fixes for Windows 64-bit? Are there instructions on how to do this properly?
We'll be releasing a firmware update on our end as well, but that would be one option. Vanilla cgminer works in the meantime if you don't mind switching to the WinUSB drivers.

anyone that have any pictures of back of pcb whit and without cooler?

My backplate did not fit properly and I did not have the tools to drill new holes for it right now.  I ended up installing the cooler without a backplate.  I may add one eventually - I will try and get a pic of the back, but it is just 4 screw heads at the moment.

Accelero Twin Turbo II?

yes I am running the Twin Turbo IIs

Got my two boards this afternoon and have set them up and they are hashing away!  Many thanks to MrTeal and ChipGeek for their hard work.  I hope that there was some margin in the price for all your hard work getting these designed, built, tested, and shipped quickly.  It was a truly remarkable task!

Mr teal

Any details
Like drivers
How install the cooler
And how install the thermal pad?
If you want to use cgminer, download the Zadig utility that was previously linked to replace the FTDI driver with a WinUSB one. The instructions are in the cgminer directory. It works the same as a regular BFL device.

I don't know what cooler you have.

Put it between the cooler and the ASICs, and smoosh the two together.

I haven't bought one, but I think it might be very tight. The base is barely big enough to cover all the ASICs, so you would have to be careful assembling it to make sure it's well centered. Cooling wise it might be a little limited, but it would at least work.

All the customer boards are now done, so we're just getting through shipping them out.

The USPS has been a nightmare to work with and has caused a couple days of delay for some of the earlier packages, but that should be resolved and most of the boards should go out today.

How do we go about ordering in batch 2? I see the price per board is 350, any discounts for qty?

When dealing with small operation like this, lower your expectation and expect some delay. It's prob couple of guys doing testing, packing and shipping as fast as they can.
Thank you for this.  All I will say right now is we are shipping as fast as we can.  We expect to get most (but probably not all) shipped by tomorrow (Oct. 18).  We have had some issues - primarily with the US Post Office.  In contrast, FedEx has been awesome it deal with.

lol. thank you for this, I actually did laugh out loud, made my day really. I'm pretty sure it's exactly a "couple of guys" working on this project, and I'm not lowering my expectation at all. The way this project has been run is miles ahead of the "big guys"  Cool


I put up a small article on bcoinnews.com about the Chili

Oh and I got mine because I live less than 5 miles from Chipgeek

If only all bitcoin hardware was this nice

Agreed. I am quite impressed with the quality of the design, and the professionalism thus far. I will have to wait till I get mine to comment on the build quality and reliability, performance, and all that, but all signs are looking good.
