It's interesting. With 0.93 in the first 12 hours there were a few cgminer restarts, the av hashrate were 495 Gh/s, with high HW errors.
After about a day, hash rate climbed to 506 Gh/s and stayed there for 24 hours, not a single cgminer restart. The HW errors dropped too.

Just upgraded to 0.94 45 minutes ago, speed now is 473 Gh/s and climbing slowly. We'll see what happens in a day.

previous .93 and avg hashrate was ~510 with lot of cgminer restarts and FPGA disable... errors. It seems, that the newest one is slightly better.

xialla, i have also read that you should try to set difficulty higher...unless your pool auto. sets difficulty

just my 2c here I've seen that mentioned a lot in the last day or so....hope it helps....think may have a thread on kncminer not sure

I asked Customer Service where they are in the queue on what pay date, etc and got this response:

"The factory team are still producing day 2 orders. We are not able to give you the exact payment date as we don’t have the lastest update from them.
 
Should you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact us."

the only thing I can come up with now is that your device has been assigned to you per order#/pay date....but then your unit happens to be defective....now it gets bypassed until new parts arrive for your unit, while the guy behind you lucks out, gets assigned a GOOD unit, and it gets shipped/delivered....and the rest of us suckers get passed on by.....order queue is sacred....so sacred that if you unit is bunk it gets by passed so the guy behind you keeps his position in the SACRED QUEUE?Huh?

well that sucks ...the person whose unit was defective should be entertained first ..basic rule he paid first ....

not saying it's right, but I have no other explaination for why one person with a later order #/pay date gets their KNC unit before someone with an earlier order # /pay date.....

or why some stay "in progress" while others actually receive units who went into 'in progress' status later. Nothing makes sense but what I stated above.

order #23xx ordered and paid june 18th saturn...status "in progress" as of Monday 1am pacific time....now more that 48HRS AGO!!!!!

The 23XX order that has been quoted, has that been verified? Could be just trolling!
[/quote]

could it be people who paid by BTC or wire xfer....ie I know wire xfer is whenever the bank gets around to doing it..not sure about bank xfer (all I have as a guess) I did a wire xfer once took more then a day

Mine are instable.

Temps are high

ASIC slot #1: 76.0 ℃
ASIC slot #2: 74.5 ℃
ASIC slot #3: 79.5 ℃
ASIC slot #4: 64.0 ℃

Fans are OK. Airflow ok. Airflow all the same way. Normal room temp of 20 degrees.
Is there a way i can tell the fans to go faster.


SOME folks have had their fans arrive off and put them on wrong..you could check that all your fans are blowing the right direction imho

one guy had that issue earlier on here I guess it helped a bit

that brings to mind...what happens when you add some other fans pointed at the unit (the standing regular say floor fan) does that kinda air movement with the case off hurt/help?

I understand man mine was also a preorder and now order number is 8xx with paid before you on 4 June, so i was in line before you in order number in payment order and was also a preorder for which i don't remember the number but do remember it was very early ...now you have your units ....(by the way congrats on that) and mine are still in progress for last 3 days ...i just don't get it ....even if i ignore your orders completely ..i was day 2 production and still i am in progress after 9 day of production ..i just dont get it ...


[/quote]


er could it be the production line ramp up I heard they had 10 lines and expanding...could it be just the expansion of such throwing some lines ahead of others (I know zip about mnfg just saying)
[/quote]


could be man ..now i am becoming hopeless...i am in a country where now 11 days of public holiday gonna start ..everything shuts down ..so even if they ship it will get stuck ......

are you planning to upgrade to 0.94?

Not yet, first I want to check if this setup runs stable for 24 hours at ~550 GH/s

xialla, i have also read that you should try to set difficulty higher...unless your pool auto. sets difficulty

yeah, now running on gigavps semi private, 625 diff and rejects are now ~1.8%

After 24 hours mining my unit is quite stable with firmware 0.93: ~550GH@766W.

The unit needed at least 12 hours to climb out of lows with less then 350 GH (hardware error rate at 25-30%).

HW error rate is now around 8%. Ambient room temp 22 C.

766W for a jup is one the highest consumption I heard with fw > .90

are you planning to upgrade to 0.94?

as usual thanks sharing Tongue

Upgrade 0.94 has been released.

I'm getting way more hardware errors with that, the miner I update was steadily hashing at 525GH/s (+3 hours average) and its now struggling to keep up to 500GH/s (just a few minutes hashing thou).

I'd not recommend upgrading if your miners are running fine. You know how we say, "if ain't broke..."

What they added to the webui is the temps, pretty scary stuff, ASIC slots preaking at 70 Celsius


thanks for sharing Rampion.

edit: are you planning to downgrade the fw was installed before?

I updated only one of my miners, will wait 3 hours to check the average and decide then.

About temperatures:

ASIC slot #1: 57.0 ℃
ASIC slot #2: -
ASIC slot #3: 63.0 ℃
ASIC slot #4: 69.0 ℃
ASIC slot #5: 63.5 ℃
ASIC slot #6: -

What I can tell you is that for now I'm seeing much more hardware errors and a crazy amount of this "core disabled - core enabled" messages, way more than before.




rampion, check that your fans were installed properly...and maybe run it without case lid, even point a fan at it too...bet it improves performance!!!
