Not Apple, because this board has corners and a reasonable price point.


On a different subject, can anyone recommend a source for waterblocks that aren't a full kit with radiator and pump and stuff? Just a bare CPU block.
I bought mine from NCIX, but given that FrozenCPU has great selection and now take BTC, I would definitely be looking that way.

Since the price dropped, may consider buying one.
Whats the best way to cool these again? I dont got all day to read through entire thread =P
Also, whats average hashrate w/ said good cooling?

Thanks
I am averaging a solid 700 on properly cooled boards. I've tried a couple different coolers. The best performance is on one where I used a CoolerMaster 240L with some upgraded fans. It will do 700GH pretty easy with temps below 90. Still tweaking and will post up more details when I get them dialed in.

If I used a 80i .... what do u think I could expect from it? Does the smaller setup make a ton of cooling performance difference?
The benefit of the bigger radiator is that it's easier to get enough air through it to cool the chips. The double radiator has (all things being equal in fin density) twice the surface area of the single one, so you need less airflow to get the same cooling effect. Not only that, but since you need less airflow for the same cooling but can use twice as many fans they can run much slower. I have a Habanero with a Swiftech H220 (similar to a Glacier 240L with a bit slower pump and much slower (55CFM vs 86CFM) fans) running behind me in my office right now, and while it's only running at 800MHz it is very quiet  and visitors don't even notice it running until they see it as ask what it is. Similar cooling with an H80i would require a much louder fan.

Now, if you can get a good price on an H80i and don't mind the noise you can use a massive fan to get good performance. I don't think that the tradeoff is worth it though, unless you're really space constrained. It's usually only another $20 or less to get the double radiator.

I just gave 3/4 of habanero to UK government. Pat Man get something sorted Smiley

I feel your pain.......
We won't get an EU distributor set up for this batch. Going forward we might, but we'd be wanting to do some due diligence there and make a trip to meet the potential partners, so it would be after we're certain there's still chips available after tomorrow.

However, if it works out well for EU customers we could definitely support a group buy or two. I am not sure how the VAT works over there, but if there is a benefit to it we could definitely work with someone / some people to (legally) help EU customers avoid paying excess tax.

Through the "Isle of Man" perhaps..

I just want to say you guys are the Apple of btc.  Your miners "just work."
I am not a tech guy but these were a piece a cake, especially compared to the VMC board.

The website is updated now. Batch 2 started testing today, and boards will ship June 9th. Pricing for Batch 2 is $850.
Sucks ass for anyone who hasn't received their boards yet and you price drop. oh, I haven't received my boards yet...
Code:
Your order was shipped on Monday 2nd June 2014 via *USPS*.

I mean; It was only shipped on the 2nd and price drop batch 2 ships in less than 1 diff change on the 9th. I understand the need for prices changes but i feel pretty rotted.

c'mon, give me at least a discount on my next order?

Sour pepper,
QG

It does sting a bit...

Hi, is available a reseller in Europe? Is possible to use RasPI as client to drive the miner.

Thanks in advance W_M

Heh,
I feel like if I was raped.
Price went down, customs didn't deem necessary to let me know that they are not gonna release the package from Stansted airport unless I pay right away(it sat there for 2 days). All previous fedex packages were paid to driver at the time of delivery or over the phone at local depot.
Assholes have now shipped my package to Dublin Huh WTF Huh Are they retarded Huh I'm in UK assholes..

I feel like I will just sell these boards ffs.

Sorry for off topic rant.

They're shipping from the US. Generally, I find you pay GST but no duty or customs charges. Might be HST if you're in one of those provinces though.

Thanks, I figured if they were made in USA that NAFTA regs would apply. Now what about lead times to ship and carrier? i definitely won't assume it as a quote, just a rough idea would be handy. Wink

[Edit] Just checked carrier, it's FedEx to where I will be.

Mr Teal, these are made in USA right?

Are these shipping from USA or Canada?

Anyone import to Canada? Customs?

I want to order! Wink

Anyone ordering from UK needs to put aside £300 for import duty for 2 boards  Shocked

I know - it's ridiculous. I've contacted Peppermining/Mr Teal on a few occasions hoping to arrange something regarding a UK/EU importer/distributor/seller in the hope that these costs could be reduced & open up the European market to these cards - but it looks like they are either too busy atm or don't plan on exporting them outside of the US - I'm not sure. It's a shame though.
It's still an option and we might pursue it, once we get past this current mad run of the initial build-up. At least for the Habanero, a lot will depend on what happens in court this week to see whether we'll be producing more of these or whether it was a one time deal.

Good to hear Mr Teal - thanks for clarifying  Smiley

Nice to see the price drop with batch 2 also - this can only be good news for the UK/EU market - drop me a line as soon as you like - I'm all set here.

 Grin

Nice price drop Smiley
