We don't have any sample boards left to ship out, but I'll see about putting some mechanical specs up on the product page on our website.

 Ok, my order for 200 chips through technobit has been confirmed. Can you tell me how many of the boards I will need? I will have 50 of the assembled boards. Also, do you have a good source for the PSU's?

 It will be more like 500w once overclocked. So I am gonna take a shot and say I need 12-13 correct? If so, how soon can you have these made. BTW, I have ordered other items from you. Also I need a price for however many I need.

 I will also need 160 of the pcie cables with the connectors for the modules.

I seem to remember paying not as much for them but that was several months ago. bobsag3 said in a previous post that they've got around 50 they can sell for $45 plus shipping. I've not been able to get good word back from my usual PSU source about how many we can get ahold of to stock, or what prices look like.

These PSUs could still support 5 if they're right at or under 500W, but for safety (and marginally improved efficiency) it would probably be better to run 4 per. 50 would then require 13, or 12 if you did some clever load-balancing. At that range, you're in the second-tier price break of $57 per board. 160 cables would be $560 to $720 depending if you wanted 18" or 36" or a mix of both.


We're in preorder stage now for the boards; PCBs are expected to arrive about the 22nd and we'll have the rest of parts by then to start manufacture for shipping by the 25th. If you get in the queue right now, we'll probably be shipping your boards and cables on or before the 28th.

If you're interested in a purchase or want to discuss further, email sales@gekkoscience.com and we'll get you set up.

 I just remembered that the dell module came with cables. How many does this one come with?

Also we've gotten several people lately asking about hosting, which we've been considering for a while. The time to make decisions is now upon us, so we're looking for opinions.

If I may redirect the reader to https://bt.irlbtc.com/view/622998.msg7814500#msg7814500 for a look at what we might be doing before long, and gather some opinions and try to gauge general interest.


Regarding the DPS2K preorder, everything is still on schedule. We'll be assembling the rest of the necessary parts this coming week, in expectation of PCBs arriving middle of next week and starting manufacture. Hopefully our cables guy can figure out a good pace and stick to it because we're gonna need a lot of them.

We have no current stock DPS2K boards available. The only option is preorder, and any orders placed now should ship on or before the 30th.

EU shipping for up to about 2 boards and 20 cables will be in the $50 neighborhood.

*watching*

$40 per PSU + shipping, have plenty. On hand now, and they work great with the proto boards I have gotten from sidehack
