For those that have yet to buy their ASICs:

I had paid for 720, but that group buy closed because it couldn't be filled.  What group buy looks promising?

I just had to ask for a refund and need to place another order.

DABS? If you are in ASIA?

Or can you start your own group buy? I might be interested in helping you with that.


Even if you are not in Asia, but you want your chips sent to someone in Asia to be assembled, then you save on shipping costs. It's a long way from China, to Europe or the United States, then to Indonesia or Thailand, then finally to you.

Of course, you could get the chips sent to yourself, then order the boards and other parts separately to be also shipped directly to you. You'd do the assembly. That would be the most economical (not counting the value of your time.)

So I am in working in China for the next 3 or 4 months and I have a friend here who knows about getting boards manufactured. I will be interested in doing a few for myself and willing to help others who might not want the chips and boards going back and forth over the ocean.

Very interested!!!,

How much work is still outstanding on getting this board fully designed and tested?

Are you still waiting on Avalon to make available documentation and reference board? They said beginning May it would be released?

Avalon also promised that the sample chips will be available 4 weeks after order. Zefir (for one) ordered a batch in April, has anyone been able to get their hands on these chips yet?

I am interested in joining this group buy. Probability 20 or 30 chips,

I understand there is a 9-10 week from order to delivery but have any of these previously ordered chips been delivered yet?

Also are there currently any working boards or designs that I can use with the Avalon chips?

I am very interested in your project,

Can you tell me how far along the design is. How long before you have a working PCB?

Also is your design open-source and will I be allowed to print your boards myself?

Still looks like a sweet deal.

If they deliver I'll order the bigger rigs they developing.

Well , you are the only one advocating it , i think you maybe affiliated.

I'm just trying to get my hands on an ASIC miner,

They seem impossible to get one's hands on. BFL seem to be the only genuine company that is accepting orders however no one knows how long it will take to receive the miner. it seems I may have to wait half a year.

Are there any other options?

I got a very prompt reply from them.

It seems they are on pre-order like the other ASIC options.

I think I should order one of these and one from BFL, see which one arrives first.
