Bitaxe Gamma 600-series entity boundary
Gamma project estimates roughly 1.2 TH/s near 15 J/TH under a suitable configurable operating point; this is not a guaranteed assembled-product tolerance.
This is an open board design licensed under CERN-OHL-S-2.0, not one fixed retail appliance. Multiple assemblers may use different heatsinks, fans, enclosures, displays, adapters, clocks and voltages. Generic retail ProductModel, fixed-SKU comparison and profitability are therefore withheld.
Gamma DC and cooling contract
5 V DC only; more than 4 A without voltage droop, commonly a 25–30 W-rated adapter. 5.5 × 2.1 mm center-positive barrel (2.5 mm may physically fit). Active cooling is mandatory; the project suggests a 40 mm, four-pin 5 V PWM fan. Other voltage can damage the board.
AxeOS/ESP-Miner firmware safety
Firmware and factory images must match device-reported board, family, ASIC, ASIC count and hardware revision. Unified releases do not authorize a generic cross-flash; Hex variants may use different maintainer forks. Recovery can leave an incompatible old web partition, so exact release assets and rollback steps are required.
Performance is configurable and autotuned. Voltage/frequency unlocks can damage inadequately cooled hardware. Absolute dBA, assembly dimensions, mass, earnings and “lottery” success are not board-global specifications.
