ltc.ghash.io:3333 I'll give multi a try later.

stratum+tcp://multi.ghash.io:3333 looks good to me.

What's your difficulty? Someone recommended 8192 for the Titan with 4 cubes.

I'm no KNC shill. I bought a Titan and I am pissed. You can laugh all you like until your Spondoolies boat anchors ROI amiga.

~L)L~

So why did you buy a "no refunds" product in the first place? By that time KNC had a good history of failing to deliver. No one should be surprised they didn't deliver again.

I agree in retrospect it was obviously a bad decision. At the time it seemed like the risk/reward ratio was reasonable. We've had a perfect storm with the Titan … collapse in crypto-coin values, late delivery, poor quality product. I still expect to recover my costs, but it's not going to be a slam dunk.

With respect to the refund issue, lets wait till the fat lady sings. Late delivery of a product that doesn't meet its specification and is unreliable is always grounds for a refund, KNC no-refund policy or not.

Not realizing they wanted a screenshot of BFGMiner, ...

How can I show up the BFGMiner stats?


The one I was overclocking was soldered directly to the Titan cube using TWO high quality 6x PCI-E connections (NOT the cheap square pins with the split down the middle).


2 PCI-E 6 pin connections for 1 cube?


Yep.  My first try ended with melting connectors.   Luckily I was home and smelled it burning before who knows what...


How did you do that? With a Y cable?


Best pool to use for me is ghash. Flawless so far, and they support merged mining. 300+ MH/s speeds even with 1 dead die.

At multi.ghash.io:3333 or ltc.ghash.io:3333?

If you have a Titan and are having issues, try turning on debug level logging in the display menu for more detailed diagnostic information.

All the problems seem to go back to issues with DC/DC subsystem stability and firmware. Look at the notes in the changelog for bfgminer


KnC should just simply ship one Titan to the BFGMiner developer Cool

That would be admitting fault -> open doors for refunds -> customer riots ->  They will live to see the day that they regret the way they have treated their customers. Cash flow from mining/cloud  < operating costs and no customers for products …  kaput

They raised close to $100 million in venture capital a few months ago. They do not need customers. They have big business to screw over now.

I don't think so. They had a $14M series A round: http://www.coindesk.com/kncminer-series-a-funding-round/


The $100M rumors are related to how much someone estimated their earnings are this year based on mining/cloud/hardware. I'm betting a good portion of that is invested in the DC, ASIC development, and in the pockets of shareholders.
They are a high operating cost company going through a cash flow squeeze.

They have missed their promised delivery dates AND the product is faulty and doesn't meet advertised specs.

I'm too lazy to search for the posts where you shill for KnC, but it's funny to read this from you.

"KNC is not just violating the mandatory 14-day refund laws in their country, but they are refusing to offer refunds for products that they aren’t even shipping in the promised time-frame."  Angry

So glad I did not pull the trigger and try to get a Titan. Buying KNC second hand is the only way to go. No need to actually deal with KNC.

Ah you still want to buy even a used KNC...I have a Titan for sale then, you won't need to deal with KNC Smiley

They also show proof on their own forums, that the courts can use, that they avoid hard questions about the issues by pretending they don't understand the questions. Any judge will see right through these jokers.

Man up KNC answer the hard questions, fix the titan or refund it.
