Hey guys, I thought I would post my specs up too. Running 5 Neptune cubes now and have been tweaking them for a couple of days. Hopefully the dies cooperate.

just saw kncminer delivering within europe which would be optimal as i am also living in europe. Are they still producing hardware? i checked their website but just noticed they re producing 16nm chips and got investment from Accel Partners (15m$). So whats going on exactly? I can't see any webshop or anything. Is it still possible to purchase (profitable) mining-hardware within europe? Is it even possible to make a RoI within a decent timeframe? any help/info is appreciated.

KNCminer is done selling hardware... until they are done with it on the cloud selling contracts, and they are obsolete.
don't bother mate... people work too hard for money these days.
You may end up seeing some old neptunes after all the solar 16's have been deployed; but seriously....the train left the station over a year ago.

yeah i guess its too late to join mining.. though it would ve been great to make this experience.. so i guess in 1-2 years we won't see the avg. tech guy mining btc as the big companies with their huge mining-farms took this over.. well gotta invest my money straight into BTC..

they dont say they are done selling hardware , just asked them , seems they realize that keeping bitcoin decentral if very important.
but if they do sell it would be in a way that costomers first need to prove they capapble.
to handle a miner.


funny the email they sent me is that only cloud hashing will be available and/or perhaps another IPO for $$$$ they are NOT at least with the 16nm stuff gonna make any more equip for sale ....now perhaps you mean big time data hall sales volume....but anyway this was 6 weeks ago...NOPE no more sales they are keeping it all was what I was told

then again sam cole has said they will on one interview back in the day and then they won't ..but my guess is they won't makes no sense if they have the best chip at the moment coming out in volume the data hall is 1c kwh elec....would make no sense...also really makes no sense if sam cole at knc's boast about wanting KNC to control 40% of all mining in 2016

Its all FUD knc tells folks at any particular time what they want to hear....me the only thing I believe is their attempted run in 2016 with data hall and IPO $$$ at 40% of all mining goal...sounds like a megalomaniac kinda goal knc would go for

Shutup idiot, i wont say it again. People are complaining about the companies actions. There is no universe where your logic exists. Just because you are to medicated to care does not discount the fact that other people are feeling hard done by. We get it! You are happy, now do us all a favor and fuck off. Waste of server space you stupid stupid clown!

Guys, guys, guys!  Not going to be the peace keeper, but I am in the middle between you two.  I had a great Saturn, ordered the CA Neptune.  Last April I asked for a refund because they didn't meet their deadlines.  I had to get the ARNS involved, but in August I received my $10,166 back.  Shouldn't have taken so long, but I did not end up getting ripped off by the Company.  Lately I've purchased 3 Neptunes and while they take some fiddling to get working as best they can, they do work at least at the stated speed of 3TH.

So yes, people have gotten hurt monetarily by KnC and people have received bad products. But some have received good products and some just don't know how to use the products and therefore think they are bad.  Both of you are completely right in your experiences, but you both need to accept not everyone's experience has been the same.

****steps down off of soapbox*****

Personally I think KnC tried to do too much too fast and got caught with their pants down.  And yes in it's infancy, anything bitcoin is a GAMBLE.  Just like the casino, don't invest more than you can afford to lose.

^^^ How about if KnC first prove they are actually capable of delivering on the promises they make at the time of sale?



any one with more then one braincel does not expect any promises and exact times.
only a compony that can predict the price of bitcoin in 5 years from now , can come with a exact timetable!
so if you fell fucked just look at the man in the mirror because you took a gamble and lost.




Again... you are an idiot, shutup. Please stop posting your babble.

lol the definition of an idiot is the one making the same mistake over and over again (albert einstein)
my miners work fine , you lost your money so WHO is the dumb one here? Smiley Smiley Smiley

No you are referring to the definition of insanity according to (albert einstein) Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
The definition of an idiot is you getting that wrong according to me and i'm sure i'm not alone.

An example of insanity is you continuing to say the same thing to everyone here over and over and over again expecting it to one day be correct and true.

Im happy that your miners work that does not mean that anyone here is dumb because their miners don't work according to what they bought initially.
That is the most warped logic i have ever come across. Hense calling you an idiot and asking you to please shutup! Insanity is asking you again and expecting you to do it this time! Getting it now?

you expect tyhe diffrent result by complaining instead of thinking!
you lost your money I did not , you expected a diffrent result make money fast does not work , you gabled you lost.
Iam sorry me just heppy with KNC stuff WHY ,, I took the risk and did not expect anything , I could win I could lose ,,, I did not expect ANYTHING. Smiley
since Knc can not predict the price of bitcoin , and short term greedy types fuck it up for thoose believing in btc...
my miners do work fine...

look at the stats

so dont clame KNC for your own failure of losing a gamble.

So how far whacked is the latest firmware for Neptune in terms of Watts shown?  I've got 6 cubes running on 220v and it says on the gui that it is only using 1700w for 4Th.  I realize that's probably at the chip level, but is there some other significant draw?  I don't have a kill-a-watt for 220v or I'd check at the wall/PDU.

vegasguy is just trolling.

I live in Finland and I've tested running Titan at really cold temperatures (with window open) and it doesn't help squat.

Your power consumption drops, but the speeds are the same.

nahh, not out to prove anything. KNC are a bunch of scum, and their support just flat does not exist. All the games they play with their customers ruined their own company.My goal was to simply educate people on getting the most out of their systems. I read pages and pages of very upset and frustrated KNC customers, and rightfully so. I have the knowledge to help. I simply wanted to get word out, that they CAN do more, AND how put preventative measures in place for new systems to last longer, and prevent any more damaged dies , as its all heat related. Not here to to defend KNC or make me look good. Btw there are are few other things that must be done to get these speeds. The knc community have made it crystal clear they dont want to hear no more about this, so thats my last word. Good luck folks.

Thats mighty nice of you, however, no one said they don't want to hear you out. In fact, Searing is actively trying to engage you. He seems to believe you , however, he was about to buy a spondoolies 100th the other day soo (Tongue to you Searing)..... But i am also, in my own dubious way; trying to engage with you.
I would love to see a bfgminer output of the hashrate you are claiming and there isn't much more i can ask for then.

So if it lines up, then i kinda have to believe that you maybe, somewhat telling the truth. I then would get in and support you.

I'm just finding it really hard to believe you are extracting 50mh more out of what seems to be the chips max. According to a company who is greedy as fuck.
I believe they would have fought pretty hard to extract the most out of them so they don't have to use as many cubes on each one whole Titan. Am i making sense?

Please show a pic of bfgminer and if you don't know how; thats fine just pm me and i'll help you with that Smiley

I really do appreciate that you want to help people, if, in fact, you are genuine. So please jump through this hoop for us so we can trust that your numbers may be correct.

Ya, your right. I should have got something better. This piece of garbage only runs at 700Mhs and draws so much damn power.. 1300w. A pile of junk. Im sending it back.

Vegas

This is what im getting when i took two cubes with me to the north pole and run them in the ocean and put nitro around the center of the cubes base.

I just still don't believe you and i'm finding it hard to understand why you would go and get some of these peoples hopes up like that Sad I'm willing to be proven wrong but i'm confident that you are full of BS.
Can you please show us a pick of bfgminer please. I do apologise for running you through a few hoops but i'm sure that what you are claiming warrants it.

It was pretty obvious it was photoshopped because he pasted the url in the pic too, dunno why he went thru the trouble except maybe to pump his blog

Ah, rain comes in a lot? You could probably make a cheap awning over the window(s) outside to keep the water out. Smiley I just picked up a 20" Lasko B20570 from the grand Walmart (no one else had it in stock) for $30. It's just the black/silver version of the Lasko 3755. It has a thermostat on it and weather protection for window use, but you have to guess the temp since it's labeled with the less->more graph instead of numbers. http://www.walmart.com/ip/Lasko-Weather-Shield-Select-20-Box-Fan-with-Thermostat-Black/42388502 I just hung it up in the window with some hanger strap and wire that I had laying around, lol. Supposed to get bad thunderstorms soon, so I'll see how it goes. Shouldn't get much rain coming in with the roof awning, but who knows.

I just noticed from your pictures that we have the exact same carbon monoxide detector. Tongue

Yeah, I've seen those nifty cube mounting brackets, but that's not really for me either. Would be $300 for all 15 of my Cubes, plus having to drastically change my setup, run more wiring, etc. I have 1 big window that could actually fit all 15, but like you said, easy pickings for thieves. Not to mention that the cats would be all over them. "Weee fun to climb on and watch da birdies!"  Grin

you have to realize the source.....1st batch users ....we paid $10,131.80 usd (w/shipping to usa) and it was imho about 4 months late....and did not work properly due to firmware again imho for the first 3 months...i've had my orig 5 months....so take that in consideration when you see the bashing on here.....

as to your speeds due to fans and less heat..no clue...mine was in a basement all winter around 55F so no effect .indeed it seems to run better now as the temp has risen ...currently 72F in basement of course I have a first batch unit which KNC  admitted the chips were flawed (and still no refund)....hope you got a good deal on the new titan 2nd batch used..I think new they went for 6,695 usd w/o shipping? (correct me if I am wrong) for 400mh and 5 cubes vs 1st batch ..most first batch only got (with dead dies etc) about 300mh at least those that shipped the first 6 weeks they may have got the process down better for those after me ..i was in the middle of the shipping que.....unless you were lucky...the odds of 300mh was even worse for the very first units out the door....mine with 2 dead dies was pretty much in the middle of the pack  also speed wise 307.8mh ..again 55F basement ...

whatever......results may vary with the first batch and 2nd batch units ...,.KNC said the 2nd batch chips were solid and also that they 'revamped' the board? if you can send us a pick of your 2nd batch board ..we can compare any changes and/or what version of the raspberry pi did you get....(mine is a raspberry pi B+ 512mb model)....if they did some changes there that also may have helped you on speed etc

we can only do with this stuff what we can ..it is not like we got ANY real support imho even when they had knc forums up etc...I myself am wondering about how a person will or even if they could upgrade to the next version of bfgminer when it comes out..i doubt we will see any support from knc of any kind ...imho 2.00 firmware was the last...and of course you can
always play email tag with them and get the notorious knc spam tech email 'make sure all the cables are put in correctly......etc etc)
