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.

Wait wait wait wait wait... that's they're Jupiter cooling? ROFLMAO. Those heatsinks are rated for peak of ~140W, not 250. And they think they can exhaust 1kw of heat with 2 standard 120mm fans?

My 1x250mm 1x200mm, 5x140mm and 2x120mm case was struggling with 800-900W. I told you those thermal simulations were really, really wrong.

Sorry to disappoint you guys, KNC lives in the clouds.

Uh, no.  As other people have pointed out, they're 320W each.

I've worked with 100s of desktop based heatsinks, but whatever go ahead. They still never explained their simulations that were FAILED.

Enjoy your vapourware/house fire.

Oh, hundreds huh? But apparently you were totally wrong about the specs of the Artic A30...

Heatsinks are Arctic i/A30 which are rated for Max. Cooling Capacity 320 Watts
You are some sort of an expert, aren't you?

Your move do·gie

Here's a proper avatar for you as well.

You are obviously clueless, I suggest you check the specs of the components before pretending you know better.

thanks for this. yup. 320 watts max. well within limits.

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 !!!

Or are you a little biatch !  Cool


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

And the case fans are clearly 140mm. unless my eyes device me. Remember the case is 200mm high, about 4.5RU.

those cases will not survive shipment.

wtf is this lol.

it is ugly, not durable, looking cheap and disgusting.

terrible design.

it is such a shame...

LOL,

go buy a BFL product. Decent Design but you'll never see it.

I don't thing any sane person cares what the case looks like as long as the device hashes. I'd prefer mine to look like a trashcan, no one would ever steal it!

Another option is Avalon: excellent design, but held up in customs.

Once in hand, host them at Zhou Tong's data center until the relic collect take them.

What coins you do gain mining, store them at Mt Gox where you can retrieve them 24/7, albeit which 24/7 is anybody's guess.

The FUD in this thread is astounding.

KNC, thanks for the update; it's nice to see things coming along.
Yeah, a lot of FUD, but also just a lot of fatuous pontificating, and second guessing the professionals.  

That's why it's a fun read.  It's like listening to sports talk radio.  It not only the opinions of the callers that are a hoot, it's the self-righteous certainty with which they hold those opinions which makes it funny.

Don't you get tired of pretending to be smarter than just about everyone else? I can see it now, the big failure... clearly, KNC should've entrusted you with the design, as the OrSOC engineers obviously know nothing about chip design/thermals Roll Eyes.

Gee, a specialist IC/ASIC design team in business for over a decade, or armchair expert that can't spell his own namesake;

Quote
do·gie also do·gy   (dg)
n. pl. do·gies Western U.S.
A stray or motherless calf.
[Origin unknown.]
Regional Note: In the language of the American West, a motherless calf is known as a dogie. In Western Words Ramon F. Adams gives one possible etymology for dogie, whose origin is unknown. During the 1880s, when a series of harsh winters left large numbers of orphaned calves, the little calves, weaned too early, were unable to digest coarse range grass, and their swollen bellies "very much resembled a batch of sourdough carried in a sack." Such a calf was referred to as dough-guts. The term, altered to dogie according to Adams, "has been used ever since throughout cattleland to refer to a pot-gutted orphan calf."

As opposed to;

Quote
dog·gy or dog·gie   (dôg, dg)
n. pl. dog·gies
A dog, especially a small one.
adj. dog·gi·er, dog·gi·est
Of or suggestive of a dog; doggish.

It looks like they have not changed the airflow profile in the case design any.  I wonder what the deltaT is going to be from the front 'cooler' chips to the rear 'hotter' ones. A linear airflow would have been more ideal. Oh well caseless it is.


All I need is a simple drawing of the mounting holes.   Roll Eyes

THose 4 fans just look like off-the-shelf Noctua coolers to me.  Not implying anything... I trust KNC myself...but just saying...

Actually they aren't that rare any more at all ...

Haha that was only a joke as it rolled with the banter. Nothing serious. Wink

Why 5V external power?  Most ATX PSU are designed to deliver most of their power on the 12V rail(s).
+1 to why external power.  I thought these were supposed to be professional mining machines?  Who has a rack full of machines with external power supplies hanging off of them like dingle berries?
