Tyrion70 and me did a group buy of 12 KNC Jupiters miners - Bitfunder IPO created out of it. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitfunder-addiction-kncminer-now-hashing-at-14th-244042
Interesting I just noticed on my orders detail page it shows a kind of grayed out 34 right under my order Qty of 1 of a Jupiter...
Wonder what the 34 means? Could it mean at the time I ordered and paid, I was the 34th Jupiter ordered and paid for??? Surely not as I ordered June 19th... Unless the Saturn's have a lot more orders???Product Price per unit Amount Price

Has anything been officially said regarding an IPO? I remember reading that KnC plan to mine as well as sell equipment. I would love an opportunity to invest in that operation.
All comes down to data centre rates, which is an ongoing negotiation between various centres. Once that is agreed, then they can proce accordingly, hence they have yet to finalise any hosting plans. It's not a priority right now though, so I think it's on the back burner, or at least that's what we were told at the open day.
They need multiple facilities, as they will not keep all miners on one location, neither will they disclose the locations. Pricing will be uniform regardless of where they are hosting. It will average whatever pricing is negotiated.

I was checking the thermals for the package size they quote, and if it's got a spreader on top, the thermal junction would be something like 46W/cm2 which is not bad at all. If it's bare die with no lid, then it's probably closer to ~ 100W/cm2. I think a standard CPU/GPU W/cm2 is around 80-100W/cm2 nowadays, so "normal" thermal solutions should be ok.
7970 have 250w TDP at a die size of 19x19mm
Just thinking out loud here, but if we were to say that the "average" order from KnC is 400GH/s, for the sake of argument. The queue depth is 26xx orders, as attested by several recent orders here. Neglecting cancellations, etc - that's > 1PH/s (Peta-hash) shipping in just a few months from one company? Insane! 
The queue was 26xx+ but it was mentioned that the final count of PAID orders was under 1000. (This was a week or 2 ago but should still hold closer to 1k compared to your 2.6k number.)
Paypal was an issue for ordering more than $10,000 so many people had to split each unit into its own order which should keep the # of units closer to the # of orders though there will be some that used BTC or Bank Transfers.

Yeah. Even if it's a bluff, it's welcome. Just to put some pressure to other companies like BitSyncom to speed up and deliver!
If they don't, then they will be knocked K.O. and everybody will want to refund and buy from Kncminer.
Others who delivers, but way too expensive like ACISMINER, will adjust their prices.
Competition is a blessing!
If I understand things correctly, these miners will feature one or two 55x55mm packages, each consuming ~500W of electric power and giving it off as heat. I can see a cooling problem there. Removing that amount of heat from such a concentrated area will require a sophisticated cooling solution.
Easier to add/modify better cooling than hundreds of tiny chips
thinking about liquid cooling or phase change.....
If buyers do not get paid in time. They want to get on the boat now. It is very unfair. They can not keep the tail. What are the advantages of first-time buyers who have helped the project?
Fair is their order is from 87 * lowest never.
Who wanted the device moved heaven and earth to pay. The did not wait now.
Thanks

Quick question about pre orders. Assuming I have a Unpaid pre-order from may and an unpaid pre order right now what would be the difference in terms of the position in line if i was to pay them both at the same time as of this moment

You are far beyond SOL. Your pre-order isn't worth anything now. You will be in the back of the line, just as if you ordered without pre-order today.

100GHash per chip, 55x55mm
I think they said chip instead of "board".For those that need to know what a package is compared to the actual ASIC "Chip"
HOLY BALLS!

each consuing lower as 250 watt...thats less then a good graphic card

So basically they won't give you a shipping que.. until you paid the order. But they will remove your order after 7 days? What's the point then. after 7 days you can reorder anyway.. or am I missing something?
The point is don't place an order unless you can pay. Why would they give people shipping priority over someone who paid immediately? Makes no sense.
I think they were talking about the famous "pre order" made on early april. From what i've understand they are giving another chance to those who didn't understand they had to convert those "pre order" to real one before june the 20th.
They also remove the reference to water cooling from the spec details. Last time i've checked, last week, it was still there

Noticed the 30% increase from applying the ORSoC algorithms has been removed from the product information -- was the increase announced today the result of these?
No it was the result of the fact Jupiter is 250gh/a standard as they originally stated.Bitcoinorama's version of it is that it's KnC making a correction on a mistake or because a "few people" he assumes weren't here from the start - as if that somehow changes KnC's accountable claims. I'd disagree with him in that regard and I'd wager this update is indeed a part of the 30% improvement they were claiming earlier.
Because a few people who weren't here from the start started complaining that if they don't get 30% on 350gh/s they would kick up a stink.
"....."
..sorry, but LOL. So THAT's why they removed it? "....."
I don't remember seeing anyone say they would kick up a stink if it wasn't a 30% improvement, btw. The explanation you had provided in the "Magic Algo" thread wasn't anything but a backlog of irrelevant history and entirely lacking in actual definitive evidence. Too many assumptions, Bitcoinorama. Too many.Quote
I know it still appears like the 30% isn't added, but it is.
..this statement I did very much enjoy, though.Ok, enough from me about this. I'm done with it.
Same here, i was happy with175/350. Was hoping for an additional increase and here we have it.
15% is more than 0%, and just 15% away from 30%. With a little luck, we migh just get to 30% by september.
