The thing that bothers me with any KnC claims is the fact they said they are not going to sell miners anymore so they can claim any numbers they want and reviewers like Me and Dogie will not get our hands on the to fact check. Any business they sell to will most likely be under an NDA so it will be hard to verify for sure.

I have an interview with Guy from Spondoolies going live tomorrow. No matter what the others do SP-Tech is not stopping. Pretty cool actually to see so many companies doing well and working hard for improvements.

Guy impressed me a lot when I met him in person.

Guy, I would be interested in your thoughts on this:
http://www.coindesk.com/kncminer-plans-16nm-bitcoin-mining-asic-launch-2015/

Does ST have plans for a competing product launch at about the same timeframe?

I can bet you it won't be a 16nm. the article has typo some times it reads 16nm other times it reads 14nm they have been bragging about the new chip since sept. 2014.

I also think based on everything I have seen the 14/16nm chip will not go from .7w to .07w .

I think they are bs ing a whole lot saying they can do a 10x improvement . they will be lucky to get to .5w or .4w . but what do I know.

Now if they build a solid .4 watt miner and no one else has one doing better then .6w they will have a decent edge over everyone until others make good a good .4w miner.

So you are saying four connectors pulling 300watts per for the sp20 is the the issue ?

I don't see how that could be the issue I think its either an issue with the firmware or the Asics themselves.

If a sp31 does 4.8 - 5 TH using the same chips at 2800 watts.

A sp20 should be able to do at least 1.8 TH using 1200 watts of power unless something is seriously goofed, since it is the same silicon basically.

If you are right and it is an issue of Maybe it is an issue of the SP20 needing to be able to pull a bit more juice say 330watts vs 300 thats a different issue I guess.

Either way 1650 TH is not good for 1200 Watts and that is what the majority of folks are seeing. I'm leaning to maybe canceling my order if this is something set in stone.

Yes I think they did a design flaw since most current/watts sent on 4 connectors = 4 x 288 or 1152 watts. that is the max rating. so when you try to send 1200 watts over a 1152 rated connection you waste power. I

In my case I do not care about this issue since I plan to use 250 setting not the 288 setting. but any one wanting to send 288 or more is just wasting money.
I would love to see clear testing from some one that used an evga 1300 or an evga 1600 set at watts of 225 to 250.
I am pretty sure those will be the best watt to gh settings.

I am going to have a lot of fun with this gear in the underclock undervolt world should be fun for me. but if you are an oc dude/dudette this may be bad gear.

I will be posting that info shortly, including evga 1200, 1600 as well as a few others....

I will also post my evga g2 1300 and my evga p2 1600 when I get the sp20

My opinion is this 250 watts should be your max setting and underclocking should be what you want to do.

Basically due to the 4 jack setup since the jacks rate at 288/300 watts and you want a margin of safety so 250 should be ideal. maybe 225 or 240 but I do not know if 225 or 240 can be set.

This is strictly based on the rating for those jacks and for evga 1300/1600 wires . I will be happy with 1000 watts and 1400 hash

you have to be kidding me 1.4 TH at 1000 watts is a joke. you get better performance out of an sp10. Why even buy the unit if that is your target.

mine is still listed unfulfilled where did you get the 26th?

never mind found it

http://www.spondoolies-tech.com/products/sp20-jackson-november-batch-2

so do we get 8 days of hash at 1.7th paid to us? that comes to a

0.16976 coin refund. I guess we have to wait to find out.

Same for me...I was hoping to get it here before Thanksgiving.

It does not help at SP20.
Neptune plug connector is air-cooled by 14 cm fan. SP20 design is different.

Hi i am not sure you guys know this but it has been helping many of the KNC mining guys, it is a 16awg wire Y psu cable, so two 8pin go in to the psu and go to one 6pin for the miner then the amps will be higher and the power more stable i also have a 6pin splitter that you can use with the original cables
ps. i was here getting info about the sp20 miner thinking about buying one

not in a sales campaign
Corsair have specially needed the Y cable but now days i am asked for most all psu´s

give me a few days for my sp20 to come.

I had the prisma and it was the loudest miner so far. although the short tube was very close to just as loud.

once I get the sp20 I can compare

I have both Prisma and SP20. I don't have a db meter, so I unfortunately can't test that way. Stock, they're both pretty loud, too loud for your living space IMHO. I have yet to try tuning the sound down on either, though a few posts back someone changed fans on the SP20 ...
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.9546908

As well, on dogie's guide for the ASICMiner tube, someone replaced the stock fan to make it quieter.

Hi Guys,

We have a heap of SP30 miners, all working pretty great thanks.

Tonight one miner shows an error on the ASIC page

disabled (Asic all engines fail BIST)

I have restarted miner gate, this doesn't make any difference
I have disabled and enabled in the Settings > ASICS Control Panel, this also makes no difference
I have rebooted the miner at the mains, this again makes no difference.

Yesterday I upgraded all miners to version 2.5.12.

The settings on this miner are as follows
Fan Speed 80
Start Volts Top 0.64
Start Volts Bottom 0.64
Max Volts 0.79
Max PSU Top 1360
Max PSU Bottom 1360

Temp Front / Back T,B 16c / 52,53c
Socket Voltage 222/221 volt

Any assistance would be gratefully received. Thanks Guys
