What's your hashrate @ 500mhz?

What I did

What I would do next time.

It's a clay sammich on clay bread.

Recipe:
Harvest some clay from along the fan side for improved airflow.
Save it CLEAN in a ziplock.
DO NOT REMOVE AS MUCH AS I DID at first.
You will have 4 more to perfect technique and test.
Cut some slices and place where needed on remaining clay bread.
Bake @ 70C for 6 months on an Ericsson griddle.
Serve open face with local garnish

Tools needed:
PAPER TOWELS
razor blade
Torx T-10 (with big enough handle and tall enough to easily clear top of heatsink with hand)
Optional/likely, more goo when ya bump the heatsink removing screws.

To remove plate:
Remove cover.
Bend sides out to make room for hand.
Hold base of heatsink in place with one hand while removing screws with other.
SLOWLY lift up on plate at one of the ends of the fingers.
When it starts to lift loosen other finger.
Slow and gentle so as not to remove heatsink when it lets loose.
Once the plate has been tipped a bit the other end is easy to lift.
Lift er up and slide her out for clay harvesting goodness.

Extra harvesting tips:
The remaining clay needs to remain along the outside edge of the plate.
Never lifting it is best if possible, it can droop down during installation and not cover VRM.
(next to sammich in pic)
The plate screws need to tighten all the way down to hold the heatsink flat when re-installing.
Too thick a sammich not better if you crush the VRMs.
Thin sammich all around might help too, thickening on fingers only.

I added a single AC box fan $20.00 USD to help the cubes and ran @ 500 while air cooling with ambient > 83C
The lower right of wish pic shows result of bendage method.
I left the PCB low in the case and left lower clay in place but added some airflow to cool bottom of case.
(my setup was temporary, else lift the PCB up too if possible)

YMMV

PCB is 160mm x 135mm
Holes >= 3mm
145mm x 120mm (145 is guess by also subrtacting 15 from 160 as they look uniform in pics.
75mm square pattern for ASIC cooler
(3mm heatsink holes can be an issue with common mounting hardware I drilled my PCBs)
(same as Intel LGA 1155/1156 garden variety heatsinks)

height from ASIC side of PCB
Tallest is cap near power input <25mm
Next is top of ribbon connector at 15mm
Next is power connector ~12mm from PCB to top of locking tab add for operation of tab on PCIe cable.
Next is top of VRMs 7ish mm
ASIC is approx 3mm

YMMV

What are the dimensions of the Neptune board excluding the heat sink, ali plate and so on? Also what are the tallest components on the board and how tall are they?

Thanks


FYI: I don't even have an "in progress" on my order yet; maybe they have decided to honour my refund?

So much so, I have moved my entire bitcoin fortune over to this address right now. It'sa very nice, I like!

At least you know how to appreciate presents.

Waa waa wee wah! I will keep this, all my life

My signature is humour, has everybody think they won't get ROI.
Predicting the future in Bitcoin mining is not a easy task, you have to take in count BTC price and difficulty (and delays in mining hardware), that are unpredictable.
Lot's of people don't believe it, you're the first one, but I think ROI is possible, in 6 to 12 mouths, for Batch 0, 1 and 2. Specially with the second free miner.

I payed around 13 BTC to get a Neptune (12176,48$ @ 940$/BTC).
Those were mined BTC and I don't care if I loose them.
You will able to follow how much I earned, as I'm going to use the address in my signature.

Anyways, here's a special BTC address for you :
Public Key 1G6ge9rLD9B5YZJ9kJn5YVkyTHEueTroLL

Now I see. Nope, you got it all wrong. I didn't just post a picture of a monkey, unrelated to anything else.

I was debating with AFox, pointing out things it seems he just didn't want to see/hear.

Edgar pointed out he was doing the classic "lalala, i'm not listening". Usually people put their fingers in their ears when they say this. Like



So I posted a picture with a monkey with his fingers in his ear - you know from that saying - see no evil, HEAR NO EVIL etc.

So I think you didn't read the thread properly and just assumed that picture was directed at everyone. Which it wasn't.

Unless I am mistaken you were poking fun at happy customers in the post I replied to.

I agree with you about some of the complainers. (lost standing in my mind by waiting too long)

There are valid complaints aplenty.
Waiting for product and refunds come to mind.
Typical issues with bleeding edge whatever causes frustration too.
I say let 'em vent but also don't stoke the fire of you REALLY don't like the steam.

You got better game than insulting happy people. (I seen it in this here thread)
If you are trying to educate the rest, insulting your target audience has low probability of success.

In my twisted mind anyways!

YMMV

I think anyone who looks at USD cost and return as the metric of success foolish.  I don't know if that's how you view, but it must be because you seem certain that this was a good investment.  However, I disagree.  Anyone who has half a brain in their head should have refunded their order when BTC was at a local minima.  Evaluating your investment in any other capacity is (IMO) a shallow attempt at convincing ones self they made the right move, when, outside the realm of emotional involvement it most certainly is/was not.

This thread is going way off topic.
Avenger, your postings are not always 100% bullshit, but the way you keep repeating the same shit is.
Putting salt on open wounds.
If people know what Evil Sam was up too, noone would invest in KfC.
I am lucky, I refund in early february,  refund was fast. I feel the pain of all the people who
keep believing in KfC and how they are treated by Sam Cock as toilet paper.
FUCK YOU SAM COCK.

As you can read, I didn't. I said you could enjoy it for the hacking value. And


Anyone fully aware of the facts and happy to lose money, then that is fine by me. But they shouldn't be on here complaining if they made that decision to be content to lose their money.

People being sad about no roi should be very aware that was always how it would turn out. See a zillion previous posts which said this would be the case. It's no surprise, unless they had their fingers in their ears for the last 7 months.

There are lots of ways to invest.
There are lots of metrics to measure success.

I think declaring everyone who does not follow your strategy and metric a fool is flawed logic.

YMMV

So Neptune will never ROI, what about Titan?

Is there still hope or all ASIC companies will eventually go bust as there won't be enough fool to sell to next time?

I know. Back in April I said you were the only guy who should hodl their neptune order  


 

I handed out good advice all year, like the above. Those with fingers in their ears and didnt listen?

Anyway, enjoy your Neptomb.

~L)L~

I saw that. [email protected] said "I confirm that hardware will be up and running on 12th."

Why would somebody 'get confused' about something that is so easy to check ?


BTW, no change to the cryptostocks ANN: https://cryptostocks.com/announcements/2838

Now you just dishin ad-hominims at ALL remaining KnC customers?
I suppose you think us defective for failing to follow your hate logic.
How bitter you seem to get when you see happy people.
I"M HAPPY AS FUCK!!! BTW

Unless and until you know the extent of my investment portfolio,
AND,
know how I measure ROI,
You are unqualified to make accurate pronouncements regarding same.

Same as you are unqualified to know INTENT of others in order to declare their actions fraud.

Don't stop though, your bitterness and hate is entertaining!

Seriously, you and eddie should get together on a collaberation.
You can photoshop and eddie can write little plays about your pictures of the people you hate.
Just like in 3rd grade!!!
Go ahead fill your world with hate.
Get u some ROI on that hate.
It is the only thing I have ever seen you invest in, you gotta be long on hate right?

You can call it Avenger and eddie's never ending petty pity party.
You already have a small fan base, there is a low side of the bell curve after all.

You might get more attention at the expense of others that way, which I declare as your goal.
(who cares if I am not qualified to make that judgement, that is where YOU set the bar)

On the gripping hand,,,
There are other ways to look at life.
Some of them are fun without always denigrating others.
Perhaps you might investigate the possibilities.

My challenge to you is UP YOUR GAME a bit.
Harvesting a gang of disruptors with hate is easy.
Lets see you take on a difficult task, I don't think you can muster troops for good.

For example:
You could help research customer OC, were greedy fucks we'll take data from anyone!
You don't need hardware to look at code.
OR
You could photochop a funny yet good setup guide for likely viewers IN THIS THREAD.
Do something good with your constant digs, it will have inherant popularity if the logic is good.

You are not pissin with the big dogs until you do.
(which I declare using your rules)

Please point out the flaws in my implimentation of your logic.
I wanna learn a different game too, even if it is hate based.
I'll teach you if you'll teach me. deal?

Go ahead and fling the insults at me, THEY ARE ALL TRUE, so what.
To REALLY needle happy people like me (which by your rules I declare is your game),
requires finding logic not character flaws.

One point Avenger
You got me to post reactively about happy feelings you seem to not like.
Next we see if reply can motivate you to post proactively about logic.
AND
If not who gets the point?


YMMV

yes i know
must have 16 awg cables
