So, a new thread for the Avalon A921 since it doesn’t really fit in the 7nm topic. Specs: - 20TH/s with a margin of -5% to +10% - 1800W, possibly +20% - Efficiency: 0.085J/Gigahash - Features 104 x A3206 7nm ASICs Operating temp from -5°C to 30°C. Looks like they’re gearing up to meet the specs discussed previously with the A941.

Gonna be tough to grab one in the USA. Add like 27.6% to the price, ugh. Anyone have an idea on what they’ll charge?

Shipping from Europe might save you from the extra tariffs, at least. Heard the price in China is around 950 USD, though that’s not official.

Honestly, I find this release disappointing. Why is it priced over double what the A841 was? Shouldn't cost more than $700 given the efficiency bump. Most new miners seem overpriced lately.

This is kinda cool news. If we mess with the voltage settings, we might push the A921’s efficiency to 0.08J / Ghs. The A941 should be even better, like 0.06-0.07.

Wow thats garbage, how do they expect to sell something that cant compete with everything else coming out? Especially after announcing 26-30TH at the same wattage less than 2 months ago. Its also claiming 1700w + 20%? So expect 2000 watts I guess.... That puts efficiency near the 0.10 w/gh range....thats almost as bad as an S9

I wouldn't count on that. When it gets shipped the Country where it was manufactured will matter more than where it is shipped from. Nice to see some hard specs and release dates for their new line. I am more interested in seeing what the 941will do, and if it launches as soon as the 841 did after the 821

1900 x 1.276 = 2424.40 for 2 to the USA  not counting shipping  so 300 more after these new trump fuck you china taxes. so 2725   get me 40 th at 3400 watts if it meets specs. the A841 was good the A851 was not so good. or buy the m10 wait a month and pay about 1817 x 1.276 = 2318.49 plus shipping  so say 2450 get 34.5 th at 2340 watts   which I know is good caus I have the demo so  maybe 5.5th more  at 1060 watts more and pay  385 more speed of delivery may be a little faster then an m10  . even at 4 cent power  it is a tough unit to buy. I am going to sit  and not be buying much  gear until after NOV elections  these tariffs are  really tough on price.

yeah, I think too that its a little dissapointing but as usual the Ax41 will be the better machine and high running and probably life up to the advertised specs. For the moment this device is at least better then Innosilicon. Comparing it with the M10 is another topic - but the issue with the M10 is still no Rohs, no CE and so I guess no FCC certs? At least thats what I last heard. Did anything change @Phil? This means that the M10 is too risky to import in the european market, if still valid. Also who knows about quality of the M10 and support.. We bought a testing unit of A921 from china, should ship next week. Will update as soon as we have the machine.

Yeah  and you are paying  1800 x 1.17 = 2106 plus shipping say 2350 usd for it. I got an early demo model so  you can't get a M10 for another 25-30 days maybe all paperwork  will be fixed. as for the A921 vs the innosilicon 20 th and 1700 watts  for the a921 19.5 th and 1740 watts for the inosilicon on balanced 17.5 th and 1412 watts for the innosilicon on efficiency price for a921 way lower then the  innosilicon.

Canaan pricing is pretty good, our listing even with the tariff included is reasonable.

This is a bummer..  27-30th is what we were expecting not 20th at same power usage.  Might as well get 841's for $4-500 at this price.  Esp. after the tariff we are also paying now on top of things.

yeah, pricing is actually cheaper as I posted before, after confirming final specs and pricing with canaan we also posted our A921 listing. https://www.cryptouniverse.at/shop/avalonminer-a9-avalon-a9/

Im thinking we leave the politics out of the hardware section for now. The real question is how did Avalon miss their own announcements targeted specs by so much?

They didn't. As I recall the initial A9 speeds they postulated were for the 941 version and not the 921.
