still is a risky investment 

haha

I guess that's why I'm asking about them.

I have yet to see anyone with them either.

I'm not a fan of any vapor pre-order these days either

Well I guess we can wait and see if these actually come to market.  If so then maybe they will still be profitable or possibly not if there is a huge per-order wait time.


If only I could order one and expect in it 3 days i might. lol
but we all know that isn't going to happen.

Thanks!

I think the X-11 miners are like the SFARDS home miners..they made a few to show the flag..but mostly I think they made them for their own data hall use.

I am on the waiting list (not gonna get one ..now after the below review) with a 90 day warranty and locked firmware you can't mod even pswd....(cgminer mod'd)

etc etc....looks like an expensive toy

Even without the trashing in the article above...the truth is with 90 day warranties and limited runs (not to mention the non-open source frimware stated above)

NO ASIC of any flavor sha-256, scrypt, x-11 etc HAS EVER had decent firmware within the first 3 months of launch..thus about the time they get a handle on the

firmware ..the company has no incentive to improve it ..in the majority of the units warranties are getting near void..and viola zip..the mnfg calls the firmware complete and walks.


Alcheminer for example 256 barely got units out the door with a loss the firmware was improved by 3rd party open source folk. To their credit they got them out at a loss and
said the firmware sucked but at least from what I understand helped after the fact to get the stuff working with 3rd party folk..if again just 'barely' got it out the door.

The KNC Titan firmware ...did not work at all for multipool for first 3 months very well (was mainly only good for LTC mining) and they originally said it was only

a 90 day warranty ..but knc forgot to change the sales page from 1 year statement on Neptunes (sha-256) units ..but even then they ONLY ran support out to

Feb 2015.(5 months) and said it was as good as it can get lol . All the stuff I asked them about hardware and firmware improvements they said could not be done

yet we are now hacking titan controllers from 2013 boards for knc btc Jupiter and the gen tarkin firmware can make your Titans just 'dance' lol But in KNC's case

no help at all like Alchemer...had to reverse engineer the stuff hardware and firmware...what pisses me off is I asked about such stuff and they flat out lied on most
of the hardware mods and also the firmware improvements (or their programmers etc were clowns also possible I guess)


So it looks to me it is out the door ..90 days ....and screw you....for any home miner token unit in the future..it is to show the big buck newbie IPO $$$ guys that
something exists to get them to invest in your data center for mining at cost with your designed chips .....again wave the flag over here with your $$$ kinda thing.


Also I was told when I was 'fishing' on their announcement (x11 miner) that units shipped the beginning of April...has ANYONE really got one besides the reviewer above..if so links...I think they are vaporware like BFL stuff used to be demo units for review...then 8 months no equip to consumer...I have not heard of anyone who has one in any manner.

but yeah ..to me its the 90 day warranty on a brand new designed device.and it is just not enough of a 'shake out period' not enough turn around time if the hardware is shoddy or the firmware don't work too easy for the mnfg to just stick it to you

So heck it could be a great deal and a great unit but the above 90 days hell I'd probably still stay away

just my '2 Craig Wrights' err oops I mean '2 satoshi's worth" (strike me down ASIC gods for the blasphemy of this lame remark!)

later

Order directly from the manufacteur. Nobody is selling used because they are brand new.

I guess these are mythical still? like unicorns?

So does anyone actually have any of these new X11 miners?

If so let me know specs and pricing. Show pics as well.

No pre order crap.

thanks!
