Just copying this from the Spondoolies thread. I'll drop more details here as I get them. Check out the MinerEdge rack mounted system based on RockerBox pics here http://imgur.com/a/5g0cq Nathan shared some details: It’s water cooled. There’s a long heatsink under the 4 modules so you can swap them out easily. Efficiency isn’t quite as high as some of the best we’ve seen with the SP20, but we’re still tweaking things. Next version of the board (if Serial power doesn’t pan out) should include some power improvements. We’re aiming for an extra 4% DC-DC efficiency at max current. Here’s the breakdown: .69w/GHs @ 6THs .57w/GHs @ 5THs .51w/GHs @ 4THs All measured at the wall at 240v. Management traffic will come out through the RJ45 jacks on the front. We’re working on integrating board-level management data with the ASIC data soon. This means we can run 24 cards (6 chassis) off a single management card. Basically, this system is like having 4 SP20 setups in one 1U tray.

Would love to see their next chip in this form factor.

Exciting. When will you finalize the tech descriptions, price, etc? Did you license the SPT software as well or will you have your own gui?

I am confused? So is this a new manufacteurer who is building ASICs but instead of developing their own chips they get it sourced from SP?

Are you going to be at the conference in Austin this weekend?

At least for the model at hand - yes.  It's not that strange - that (systems integrators using manufacturer's chips) used to be the status quo Yes:

Wow looks very interesting.  New to this so have some questions. So water cooled would require me to have some sort of equipment to support this?  Or it will come with everything needed to be up and running out of the box?  Or will you offer or provide information on what should be used? So at 4THs would be about 2040 watts and so is that with all boards installed or some combination?  Not to put you on the spot but do you have any approx. price range for the first board and chassis with the controller module and for board 2-4? Also, what time frame before you begin shipping? As with all new people we ask to many questions.

Interesting formfactor. Is there any pictures of the current block and loop design? What type of PSUs are those, do they have air cooling? Does that air cooling extend over the PCBs?

I didn't think SP was producing anymore ASICs and I assumed they weren't producing any more of their semiconductor chips also. That's why I am surprised this company came up.

From Previous thread: Can you outline where/how the radiators fit into the setup? I imagine they are external, so is the unit really a 1U unit or is it 1U plus radiator? Also could you outline what your expected performance output will be per unit? An idea of price would be good too As suggested already, best to open up a new thread with your details/announcement.

Way too many RJ45 to praise it yet. I'm not a big fan of 1U since all the fans in the PSUs will be little and noisy for a front-to-back air flow. Even water-cooled, the PSUs cover most of the back area, so it won't be too much air flow that way either .. we will see.

Looks nice so far.  What price range are you looking to sell these at?

If there is a friendly neighborhood forum moderator who could kindly remove my posting restrictions I would most appreciate it. Thank you, Nathan

ask hardware moderators (three on the top of the page) in a PM - I am sure that they will accommodate you as it is a special case (new company).

I believe they're for connections to a single controller module.
