If the CM4 uses Avalon chips, counting the chips on the drawing I see 40Gh on the board.

Just for the board it is $4800 US which is $120 per GH not including other boards, fans, controllers etc.

So easily $130 per GH?

Is that a fair assessment?

That is a close enough number.

Ok I admire your honesty.

You also realize that apart from the USB Block Erupter things, your cost per GH is the highest of anyone per GH by a factor of more than double (closer to triple)?

BFL is $45 to $55 a GH
Terrahash is $50 to $55
KNC Miner is $20 to $35

So how do you expect to be successful?



Incompetency of competition, I recon.

He is up against the same challenges, all he has is a design, Without $360k worth of chips on order 2 months ago, this has no chance of getting anywhere.   You can't charge 250% more that the competition no matter what, you may be able to charge 150-200% if you could ship today
