Topic: XBTec bitcoin miner Pacific V2 (Read 5093 times)
Copycats?
More like resellers. They clearly say in the specs that it's based on AM chips, so no big secret here. I'm just curious what kind of PSU and controller they provide.
XBTec collaborated with ASICMiner on the Prisma board design so technically it was designed by both of them. I believe the V3 is actually comprised of the same board, just in a rackmount chassis. If you look at the end of your Prisma boards you'll notice a label which says designed by stahanov.pro.

So....it's a Prisma. Which is 1.47 btc I believe from Canary or Friedcat.
Finally V2 in stock
It looks a lot like AM Prisma at nearly twice the price. Is the PSU really included? What kind of PSU? What kind of controller?
PSU included, Pi as controller unless V2 is very changed from V1.
What is V1? The Pacific 1250? V2 doesn't look anything like it. Don't see any PSU in the picture thus the question.

Nvm, V2 is no longer V2.

we were tested it at ghash and f2pool.
Right now can't say any comments about p2pool.

How do these work with p2pool - any experiences?

Do you still use two mode of fan?
From dogie review the 5000rpm is less likely to be use by normal user.

we use 2500rpm.
5000prm mode just for preventing troubles with cooling in extremely hot areas or OL mode.

As we wrote above, Pacific V2 hasn't something extremely newest.
We just improve PCBs design to cut power consumption as well.
Aluminum case made mostly for cheaper shipping cost.

Looking like we may have a new player as long as the reliability is there. When can we see more info on Pacific 2000 and more details and pricing? Your website says it's available, is this only from your Russian affiliates?
I gonna say to our webmaster to change it pic.
Apparently the 1250 is for real. Here is Dogie's review:

They have removed the Pacific 2000 from their website, now just Pacific 1250 and V2 which is promising almost silent operation- sheesh! How's that possible with a server grade psu. 
I don't doubt they have a miner designed. I have seen some farm pictures posted of what is likely their V1 model.
I am guessing V2 is generally same design and will likely work. BUT....
--Will it hash at the advertised rate? - no idea until they get it made
--Can they be trusted to deliver? - Newer company, no track record, who knows.
Smart money waits until 8/31. Someone will order this and we'll see what they report (From the new batch, I'm sure Dogie's will works fine).

This all sounds good on paper, but can we see some more evidence of a built machine hashing? A few pictures of an empty case doesn't really give me any confidence here.
Dispatching in three weeks time? This looks like good intentions and promises.
