Projected shipping date is 12/12/2019.
I believe that the projected delivery date was the 20th.

This new box will do more than twice the NPS at 1/3 of the power.
If you want to pay for crating and shipping, I would send you that machine (but keep the sound proof box).
Warning, it weighs 100KG, so the shipping would be rather high.
And the 4 1200 watt power supplies suck juice with a slurp and a burp.

Billing period Nov 16, 2019 – Dec 15, 2019 Compared to this time last year, your electricity use is projected to be 36% higher. That’s 1,166 kWh more than the same time last year.
In the winter, when I run it like gangbusters, I get electric bills of $600 to $700 per month.Code: Select all

My projected shipping date is the 12/23> I realized last night when , when checking the site I ordered from, those who opted to get a window on the case ( I elected the solid aluminum side) , would get their builds faster. There must have been run on the solid aluminum side ( it was also a plus $30 item).Dann Corbit wrote: ↑Tue Dec 10, 2019 3:29 am Projected shipping date is 12/12/2019.

For those perhaps on a more modest budget, the Intel I9-10980XE might be the way to go. 50M nps for a $1000 processor looks pretty good to me. A home built system could be had for under $2k.MikeB wrote: ↑Fri Dec 20, 2019 2:07 amwow - I just got my delivery date from Velocity - 12/23.
