Anyone have any clue when they will ship the modules? I thought they said they would ramp up more people and get them out? I hope they aren't blowing smoke again. BTC up to $400, would love to have those modules I spent a small fortune on.

Does anyone with a miner have a caliper to measure the thickness of the case.
Is it aluminium?
I need to make a home for my Upgrade modules and one of the options is to build a replica of the original case.
Do you think that is doable?
Or if you can recommend anything else?
Perhaps a specific computer case?
I'd just use the cover as another base....but that's just me.... Is it aluminium?

Everything in KNC world is rainbows and unicorn!
Meanwhile, over in HashFast land, the crybabies are bitching about a picture of the CEO holding a big package of their recently delivered chips. The chips were delivered and they're still crying! What the hell is wrong with this world?
I'm very happy that I went with KNC and Bitfury. But I wish now that I'd have invested in HF too.

You must not understand the actual situation.
They promised end of October/Early November First Batch
They just got their "Silicon" (Not Chips) on Feb 7th
They stated the Substrate (What surrounds the silicon needed to make it into a "Chip) is delayed until Early-Mid December
Once they have the working "Chips" then they have to test them and finally assemble the units.
All of this going into the Holiday Season.
KnC will ship their second batch before HashFast ships their first and HashFast paid $600 more then KnC November Orders and will receive 150+ LESS GH if their chip runs at 400GH like they state.
I'm sure there's more but that should help you understand the mood in that thread.
You're right, I don't completely understand the situation. I've only been loosely following the HF threads.
But my main point stands. How can the masses get so upset when a company experiences a few hiccups when trying to bring such cutting edge technology to market?
It. Happens. All. Of. The. Time!
It can't really be a shocking revelation, can it?! And if you've been reading the Bitfury and KNC threads, you may have noticed some delays and setbacks too. Granted, delays were short and technical issues were fixable. Hopefully this is the case for HashFast customers too. But don't burn down the village because the "encouraging news" wasn't good enough. At least HF has silicon in hand (chip, silicon... no diff to me) and they didn't run off with your money to some island in the pacific . Because that's a very real possibility in this business!
So, that extra module that I've ordered. Can I run it with anything else but the main control boards?
Let's say rPi?
Please advice.

It's a BeagleBone Black (Circuito, Newark or Farnell) inside the KNC as far as I can tell. Similar to the RaspeBerry Pi -- but that's all.
I don't see how you'd connect the data ribbon to a BBB without one.
What a great morning...Gox @ 427.....coinbase @ 390... nice!
Suggestion for KNC's GEN2... Native WiFi
a small pci slot on the controller board...and a 5 dollar 10/100 wifi card...
sorry for being pedantic but it's a plain BeagleBone, not the Black version. And if memory serves KnC removed the USB interface.
It's a custom-manufatcured BeagleBone Black with some components missing. Components which presumably were not needed for this application, like the HDMI output stuff.
I have a regular BBB here, and the PCB itself looks identical.
For anyone interested to make his own ribbon cables of any length you need to buy only 2 things:

Imake them on the same way...
So, looking reasonably simple press fit insulation piercing. Is there a best compression tool or are most going with channel lock pliers? I know when I make my own RJ45 connectors, the insulation piercing is okay but not 100%, 100% of the time and this with a fairly decent RJ45 crimping tool. When hashrate falls showing a module has died I'd bet the failure to be a homemade ribbon cable. I have ordered a roll of cable with connectors. Just wondering about a best compression tool without getting to ampenol costs.
I'd use a bench vise, with some thin shoebox-style cardboard between the metal jaws and the work. A precision vise would be even better.

Also you could bag a November Jupiter for less than BTC17.00 and how many coins did a batch one HF cost!
I got my arctic CPU cooler from amazon already 2 day shipping became 1 day somehow. and they aint event shipped out the upgrade modules yet haha
Hahah same here my Arctic was sitting at the front door today, Board still in Sweden Yah!
Today is party day for me...
The whole BTC endeavor has surpassed itself investment wise.
In approx. 27 days, so far, I've earned about 33.5 BTC total. By today's price, that covers Every cent spent, and more... but wait!...
I was able to re-invest the BTC, and now will ultimately end up with over TRIPLE my current hashpower by...(Nov.?th)... certainly out-pacing the diffchanges by a significant margin. All thanks to KNC & The ASIC Godz!
**Just had to get that out.... AAAaaaah.
This is exciting.

I lost plane ticket money, office lease deposits, internet service installations, not to mention all the tables, cords, and power supplies I shipped to Washington, directly from amazon, just to get the miners into a 2.4 cent electrical situation...
The "Powers that be" saw to it there was a glitch in the address change online, and my machines were subsequently shipped here to hawaii Instead of Chelan, which meant an emergency PSU re-order for home...but Chelan would have been a total disaster in hindsight, with all the things unforeseen that needed worked out. Thank the stars. I'm VERY Happy they are here at home, even with .43 electric. In approx. 27 days, so far, I've earned about 33.5 BTC total.

The dude just broke even on a huge investment he made- it is a good day for him.

Now I'm kinda bummed about getting the upgrade board. Instead of $1,000 for the board, I really paid $1,300. Of course the market would continue to spike the day after I spent my BTC! haha
It'd be easier to swallow if they would start shipping. Lame that there hasn't been a peep yet. I don't think anyone is going to get them before the weekend now unless you're in Sweden.
I'm flying from UK to Sweden, so hopefully I'm the first one to get it

So I'm not going to meet you. I am disappointed
It was a joke.

Probably a smaller case. Any other ideas?
