Congrats Phoenix! I am at USD break even in one more day! I've made 32 BTC with my jup. One more month(ish) to break even in BTC terms using the exponential difficulty estimates I have been using.

Edit - Looks like I am USD break even today based on coinbase price.

chrono, when did you receive your miner?

October 4th

chrono, I suppose your miner minted @530-550 since the beginning right?

Yes - Around 520 gh/s from the start. I got really lucky with a unit with around 4 bad cores.

I wonder if those that had an easier transport had less hardware issues? I picked mine up in Sweden and flew home with it, and yes although it did go in the hold and suffer the horrors of Norway Air baggage handling and had all 4 fans fall off, it may have had less of a traumatic journey than via UPS/DHL van. Because mine has been happy on .96 hashing at 555Gh/s with zero bad cores according to:

My theory is simply that the boxes they ship the units in are "junk" and the unit is so light that whowever ships it tosses it about..it is not like it says 'fragile" or "electronics" on the outside or anything..

Just to be clear my Jupiter IMHO runs really well with only a couple cores iffy (off/on) is probably DUE TO the fact they shipped in such shabby packages.....my theory is that my unit (if it happened at the beginning of the trip) the box was shredded to the extent the only way to keep the miner in the box was basically to use '2 hands" and carry it..thus no tossing about on the trip...(although it did arrive in a soggy box that you could not pick up with 1 hand and could see mostly shiny miner inside.and the fact the miner was filled with at least a 1/2 glass of rainwater)....

anyway works well on .95 have not touched it..but it is uncalled for these units should at least be in the kinda box you get a cheap DVD machine in..ie ....heavy cardboard etc...there is no excuse...but anyway that is my theory "ass backwards" though it may be on why the only thing I have wrong with it is they did not include 3 of the 4 foam rubber dealie things on the top of the heat sinks...(the bas*t*rds).....ship them from Sweden immediately I want the 3 pieces for foam rubber they owe me...

anyway.....but I mean really the cheapness of the shipping boxes they use is just plain scary
