Does no one else find it weird they put a (scratched) perspex windows over the FAN OUTLET!



Are you sure the window is scratched and not the aluminium behind the window?
The part on the right fits over the part on the left, so there is no aluminium - it should be the desk we see through the part of the right.

hes just trying to sound like he knows what hes talking about (which he clearly doesnt) and is obviously trolling. just ignore him.

I get what you're saying, but here's the thing.

1) If everyone who knows better ignores him, people might think he's making reasonable points that people don't have answers too

2) What if he's not trolling, and actually thinks this.  In that case, he needs to know he's wrong. Too many people go through life thinking they're smarter then they are, and believing whatever pops into their head is the truth. Telling them their wrong can help them grow as a person.

Yes Please Show us the Asic Chips and the rest can come later.

Is this a bot?

It sounds like one and not very inteligent too.

I looked at their recent posts and that's basically all they say. They also seem kind of illiterate. I don't know if that's because they don't speak English as a first language or what - they don't seem to be listening to what anyone else is saying.  Definitely ignore material.

This 120mm fan does 74CFM @ 1300RPM.   It's $9. And actually it's the exact same fan used in the heatsink, as a separate product. Here's another fan from another company 1500RPM, 71CFM, $12 and this one is 1400 RPM and 74CFM, for $11.50.

Seriously dude, WTF are you talking about? You're obviously wrong and clearly don't know that much about fans and heatsinks, as these specs are clearly possible and readily available.

Each one is about $40 on Newegg, btw - so that's $160 on cooling if you bought them retail. plus the main case fans.   And even if the specs were off, it wouldn't matter as they're actually overpowered for the expected thermal output.

Yeah don't know what that was... anyway, I was remarking that I don't believe the heatsink to be able to dissipate 320W of heat - as they claim it to be able to. And as you can see, the fan CFMs just don't make sense. If it was really 70+ @1200rpm, it would be the best on the market, and not the £4 retail it actually is.

The fan is 320W, but the chip is only 250W, or less (probably a lot less)
You have to types of wattage :
  • Electrical watts
  • Thermal watts

If a chip uses 250 of electrical watts and gives 250 of thermal watts, that means you have a chip with no hashing power.
The cooling capacity of the fan (320w) is the amount of thermal watts it can deal with. Not the amount of electrical watts, consumed by the chip, it can deal with.

There will be no heating problems. Personally I think one chip will not give more then 125 thermal watts.

LOLwhat?

Not sure if serious?

All (or 99.9999999% so we can just say "all") electricity used by an electronic circuit is converted to heat.
A chip does not real "work" (in the physics sense).  Law of conservation of energy.  If 100W (electricity) goes in then 100W (heat) comes out.

LOL at the desperation in this thread, people going to be sad when KNC runs away.

It was a larger model than I thought as I just skimmed over the pic, but just try running that at 320W 24/7 LOL.

So now the chip is 320W instead of 250W? When did that happen.

Apparently it's really difficult for you to keep numbers straight in your head.
You're saying its rated at 320W, I'm saying its not. AC are renowned for overstating their numbers. Just look at the CFM on that 12CM 1200RPM fan ^_^

So what you're saying is: you actually can't tell the difference between the fan and the chip? The fan is 320W, but the chip is only 250W, or less (probably a lot less)

Also, trying to argue that KnC won't ship because Artic is straight up lying about their heatsink specs is moronic.

KNC is looking good so far IMO. Can't wait to see the PCB samples next week...

Cool ..then put your money where your mouth is !!!

http://bitbet.us/bet/472/kncminer-will-deliver-asic-devices-before-october-1st/

Or are you a little biatch !  Cool


we did, by buying miners!!  This seems more like a hedge bet anyway

Exactly, I already bet on the KNC horse with a $7000 pre-order, I'm good. Plus after bitbet.us totally screwed up the "BLF ships in April" bet I'm not betting a single satoshi on that site.

All this arguing.

I'm getting BFL flashbacks...circa November 2012

It's not desperation, we're basically laughing at you... Cheesy.
