So pumped about the official announcement! Can’t wait to snag one, but I guess I’ll have to wait for the global drop. Nice job, team!
Power use is totally flexible. You can tweak the voltage and frequency, but just don’t push it over 120W, or it might get dicey. It can dip below 20W too if you set it right.

Oops, I edited my previous post. Totally missed that power figure under the pic. This miner is a solid option for sure. Can’t wait for the next batch!
You can pre-order the GekkoScience R606 at MinersSupply now! First batch is only through this forum. Don’t miss out!
I’m stoked for the second batch! I really want one shipped to Australia!

Just a heads-up, 419Mining is accepting orders. They've got a sweet deal on power packs if you grab an R606 too. Check it out!

Can we get some screenshots of cgminer running this beast? That would be awesome.

Heard a demo unit is out. Waiting to see some hashing numbers myself.
Testing some units for a raffle. I’ll update everyone on how many are working!

Most of the re-sellers are still in pre-order. As units roll out, we’ll get more pics and updates. I’ve got a prototype, but it’s not the same as the final version.
From what I see, this seems like the best option right now. I’ve got a few compacs to give away as part of a raffle. Just buy a unit from a North American dealer.

Thanks for the support! Can’t wait to see more people joining in.
I usually promote sidehack gear and do giveaways for buyers. Let’s say you sell 12 units, you give raffle numbers from 2000 to 2012.
Do you need a Raspberry Pi for this miner? Or can I just plug it into my Windows 10 rig that’s already running some Vega 64s?
