Regarding warranty, we haven't mentioned it and (quite surprisingly) no one has asked about it. The warranty period will be 90 days from the date of delivery.



I think 90 days are not enough to obey EU laws for planned EU:EU sales process.
Indeed Europe has a minimum of 2 years

I know there are issues in the United States with 90 day warranties too, one of the main reason you couldnt order Mining Cards from distributors and major brands/stores.

The warranty applies to all cards shipped.

For USA, https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/15/2304

A 90 day warranty for anything that will be beat to death as mining hardware is more than reasonable.


You couldnt really say "beat to death as mining hardware" when your creating it for that purpose. If its obeying the purpose, a 90-day warranty wouldnt be within the reasonable standard. There are many factors when coming up with a warranty, and for this product being $3000+ and being used for its intended use to break within 1 year, would most likely end in a lawsuit with your company if someone wanted to. There is an implied warranty, and you will be held accountable for implied warranties if the product cannot do what its built to do for atleast 1+ years. This is why you see long warranties in the computer sector.

Bitmain and Nvidia don't offer 1+ year warranties on mining hardware.

Nvidia doesnt sell the mining hardware, chinese companies and aftermarket producers sell the majority of mining hardware. You will not find any mining GPUs from the major distributors unless you are acknowledging they are for commercial use and the distributors that did get some in required high quantity (100+) and some confirmed your mining facility as it cannot be sold as a consumer product. Very few distributors received any mining cards and the major ones didnt due to legality issues. Bitmain is also a chinese company, and goodluck trying to enforce US laws upon them. There is a reason China produces plenty of counterfeits.
