Pangolin just dropped two new miners for pre-order on their site.
They have a BTC miner that hits 33TH and pulls 2145W for a price of $1999.
How are they achieving these numbers with 16nm tech?
And what's up with that "or better" thing? Don't they know the specs of their processors?
What do you guys think?
Easy, just check out the overclocking threads for the s9: given the right voltage, freq tweaks and decent cooling they can run in the same per-chip hash rates.
As for the 'or better' I suspect they are either using multiple foundries for their chips or as the 16nm node further matures are anticipating at least 1 more process improvement for the node.
so they do 2145/33000 = 0.065 per gh?
and are really by far the best most efficient miner ever made?
So if you purchased the GMO miner at .082 per gh you got crushed by this miner.
The M10 is like a freaking beast
btw bitmain has dropped the s9i down under 600 to 564

M10 rules if this is true.
I'd be leery on a presale. Just look at the M3 that went from almost $2k to under $300 from price wars and market fluctuation. Was a nice pump and dump. Glad I sold all mine shortly after receiving. They used more power than advertised too. Bitmain or Canaan has to be releasing something more efficient to start new price war for GMO and this. Someone will most likely be shipping something better/cheaper before these and GMO even start shipping.
Yea, destroys the the b3. 33th is nice but over 3300w. This is more in line what we're talking about efficiency wise in one of the other speculation threads.
this m10 is the most efficient miner ever built. (claimed not proven yet)
I am truly looking forward to giving it a good testing and demo.
If it is under 0.070 a gh and does at least 30th it would still be the best miner ever built.
I also hope that they create a lower speed optional firmware.
They made firmware for the M3x to save power see below

An option like this for the new miner would be good for some of us.
The ability to lower power to 1800 watts on low speed and say 27.3th
vs 2145 watts on high speed and say 33th would really make this gear a winner
even at 2400watt on the wall
2400/33000 = 0.072727272 watts per gh which is better then anything else
time will tell I will do detail videos on it in the garage and in the solar array I will meter it in both places
I will also attempt to test other psu's if at all possible.
I have a 2400 watt psu
I have a 2500 watt psu
I have a 2880 watt psu
I have a 2980 watt psu
along with the stock attached psu.
I am waiting for a contact email as Hagss setup it up and I should hear from them soon.
My point got a little lost, I simply meant I am dubious of their power ratings.
Yes even at 2400W this current model would be nice, hopefully it stays in this range.
I hope I am wrong as my M3s were excellent miners and this one looks awesome.
Well my M3 did just about exactly as advertised. They sent me and Hagss testers to demo..
So frankly we hope this will be the same.
We will let you know when we get them.
We've never had a request for a whatsminer. Personally I don't know much about them. Pangolin is the place though? Reputable? We'll want to list the M10 probably wait another month on the altcoin asic. Nov is so far off in this world.
We're just very confused as Pangolin hasn't responded to us at all.
Try shooting HagssFin a pm he would know more then me.
Last dec he set the Demos up. I did the YouTube videos and he did the write up on the M3.
We each got a demo machine. We paid for them they were sent early at a very small discount to us. But that was when Btc was to the moon 19900 usd if I recall
