still looking to buy some btc, let me know if anyone can help.

How are you proposing to pay?

its short notice so paypal or interac money transfer. i know its not ideal, but I'm sure a couple guys on here can verify I'm no scammer....

How come you can't just do LocalBitcoins and grab a few using cash?  Is it not available in your area?

How can they work 5 boards or even 6 boards when KNCminer says controller board is not designed to work with 5 or 6, but only with 4 boards as in JUPITER....
Somebody is not right here

You guys should start with 600m diff and then add an additional 2PH to that for the end of November.  From there take a guess at how much HashFast, Bitmine, BitFury, and CoinTerra are launching.

People are way too excited to spend $1000+ (including extra parts to buy) just for ~140GH.

Companies will continue to rip people off if you keep falling for it.  Amazing how people want to give away their BTC.  If you have $1000 to blow, buy more BTC on the next price correction.

They say upgrade modules.
Will they come with 10 way ribbon + heatsink and extras?

Will these upgrade modules work on October Jupiter?
There are 6 ports I see...
And how do you attach heatsink then?

Orama, the selling of the modules tomorrow/tonight,

Do these modules come with the heatsinks, right? And the that special data cable we will need.



Heatsink, no, it's readily available, and not worth the shipping cost to you to have it globally couriered from Stockholm to country X. It's a heavy thing to ship for something that's approx £30 online.

Cables, PCI-E extension leads, screws, and that blank aluminium pieces that affixes the heatsink to the board, ya.

Since the HSF is widely available I assume that any standard size cooler would fit, correct?  How about something like this?

you can probably just stack a bunch of copper pennies on it and be fine

Having completed our first shipment. We have taken stock of remaining inventory. We now have some available to sell as the promised upgrade modules. These upgrade modules will be available for sale tomorrow on the KnCMiner site, at 2pm CET (8am EST). They are priced at $950 (USD), but exclusively for sale in Bitcoins (BTC). They are only available for sale to existing KnCMiner customers, and will only work with units from the October shipment, as board modifications make them incompatible with the November revision.

I sure hope I qualify as an existing customer.

I purchased my October Saturn from someone else, not directly from KnC.

I'm not sure how they'd manage that.  It would seem to open the door to anyone making such a claim.  I suppose we shall see.

I am a customer and may buy one or two more than I need.

Be sure to measure carefully.  KNC isn't using the standard 4 CPU mounting holes.  They are using a custom "bar" which attaches to the heatsink, it probably will not fit to every heat sink.  It may not work on anything except that specific heatsink.

Hmmm, that's not what I wanted to hear.  Sad

But maybe Orama can confirm.  The Corsair coolers come with plenty of brackets that fit just about any recent CPU.

Has anybody else experienced a miner slowing down after a few days hashing?  My 3 module Jupiter was running at 420 gh/s for about two days and now it's only running at 376 gh/s.

Why pay so much money, when you can have something that works for less?

I build PCs as a hobby.  I have an H80 sitting around doing nothing.  I think I paid less than $60 for it.  I think the H80 discontinued now so that's why I linked to the H75.

I was diagnosing recently a computer that won't boot. It turned out the water block has leaked onto the motherboard around the CPU socket.
I personally wouldn't put a water cooler, but that's just me.

Danger Will Robinson, Danger!
No, that won't work.
Besides, the arctic i30 already overcools them....what are you goin' for? superconductivity?
Remember, they love 70C.

I live in Phoenix.  It's hot here!  And my miner room (it's really just a big pantry with a window, lol) gets pretty damn warm on a sunny day.

And I also don't buy into the "hot hasher" theory.  I have no desire to play that dangerous game.  My li'l Mercury runs at a very steady 140GH/s with temps in the low to mid 50s.  Besides, Corsair Liquid Coolers are pretty standard stuff thses days and not considered 'extreme' in the least.

Hi,

Bitcoinorama, do you happen to know if the upgrades will be available for a Jupiter unit hosted with KNC?

Thanks!
