They've pre-sold more then 60,000 monarchs which have missed their power targets by about 70% and the bullet run is expected to now be late march.

"some units might hit 350W, but most will be 500W or more, expect high end to be 600W"
"which means we may revise the estimate to 350W for the 300GH version, 600GH version being 600W"

Apparently they're also now having thermal expansion detach bumps (like Nvidia in 2008).


Hi - where is the source for this info?

Cheers,

Some of it is a quote from BFL_Jonathon in the #butterflylabs room on IRC (who was auth'd as he's set to Op and Enforced) and the rest is from BFL's own forums, particulary the 'Post Sales & Customer Service' and 'Jalapeno & Single SC Support'.

The RMA thing is from personal experience as I submitted a RMA request with debug logs on the 27th November but has been ignored since (my Jalapeno is only running at 1.15Gh/s on 4 engines).
The embedded tracking cookie never replied saying it has been read.

Inaba/BFL_Josh will now say either the logs are fake, it's a smear campaign (as everyone in the room has the same logs) or BFL_Jonathon was hacked. I suspect I'll be called every name under the sun by Inaba/BFL_Josh, but I'm past caring. The funny thing about evidence is that it can make you look like a real lying twat when confronted with it, the irony is that's exactly what he's been calling me.

I suspect I won't be getting that RMA request ever now... but not a big surprise to be honest.
