Review of the Bitcoin Miner BTCGarden v1 X2
BTCGarden V1 X2, Dual Units Chaining. CCN reviewed the BTCGarden AM-V1 310 GH/s Bitcoin ASIC Miner back in August, a dual blade unit. A solid entrant in the SHA-256 miner market that had many upsides like the ability to stack several together. The V1 X2 can run several on one Raspberry Pi as well as being a very quiet miner. BTCGarden then took the next step quickly with the introduction of the BTCGarden v1 X2 miner. The V1 X2 updated both the board as well as the packing of four blades into one easy to stack chassis. The new boards are not quite as wide being shorter by 2 inches. The V1....

ASICMiner BE200 Chips on Prisma. ASICMiner recently debuted the Tube Bitcoin ASIC miner which we reviewed at CCN. FriedCat and his team have followed up the Tube with the Prisma. The Prisma is a 1.4 th/s miner based on the ASICMiner Gen 3 BE200 chip that the Tube miner, as well as others like the Rockminer T1 and BTCGarden V1X2, use. The Prisma follows the same design as the Tube except that it is longer, featuring more chips and a lower clock rate. Clocking down and adding more chips is what ZeusMiner did with the Thunder X6 that we reviewed as well. ASICMiner can bring the total hash....
Review: The Blizzard 1.3+ mh/s Scrypt Miner by ZeusMiner. ZeusMiner is the company that makes the Scrypt ASIC miner chips for many companies other than itself. It has positioned itself as not only a manufacturer but also as an OEM and re-seller of ASIC Scrypt Miners. Having to manage all three is a new and unique challenge as many companies are only one or two channels in the chain. So far, despite some bumps in the road, like massive demand at rollout, ZeusMiner has done very well. I recently reviewed the GAWMiners Falcon, which is made by ZeusMiner. It is an excellent miner that is well....
Gridseed Blade. Gridseed started the Scrypt ASIC miner race with its first foray into the market with the DualMiner. The DualMiner is a single chip USB miner that performed at 70 kh/s in Scrypt only mode. Gridseed quickly followed it up with the 5 Chip Orb which ran at 360 kh/s Scrypt only. As everyone was buying the Orbs at a speedy rate, they introduced the Blade. I had the opportunity to test and review the Blade Scrypt miner thanks to GAWMiners with the assistance of Holy Scott from HolyBitcoin. Specifications. The specifications are solid. -There are 2 PCB Panels in each Miner. -Each....
The ant miner S1 is one of the best BTC miner to start with in mine opinion. Actually to be honest with that 2.77$ / GH/s rate it s even good for serious miners as well. The reason why I said it is great for newbies is because it is soo easy to use. As you can see from our video review or from the set up tutorial. The ant miner is a stand alone device. No need for a dedicated computer. All you have buy is a PSU (power supply unit). Other than that you are good to go and start mining. As the bitcoin gets more widely know and used devices like the ant miner S1 are very much needed.....
