can anyone tell me how loud they are?

is it, ridiculous loud like a cointerra box that sounds like a vacuum cleaner running 24/7?

or is it whisper quiet like the jupiter? or somewhere in between? like an avalon?

noise is going to be my biggest limiting factor moving forward...

It's very quiet: Noise is about the same as Jupiter (Neptune has one more Fan, so 20% more).

i got screwed over with super jupiter, i want to do something about it please help

Ah, buyer's remorse. Sorry, but there's nothing you can do. I'm quite satisfied with my FrankenJup. Why do you feel screwed?

 And you are experiencing retrospective rationalization.  Why DONT you feel screwed?
 

I received an assembled FrankenJup and  18 bonus boards. I'm currently running 30 boards and they work just fine although I have them underclocked a bit and getting ~4.5Ths.

Yes, they were a hassle to get working properly and I do have a few bad boards. But I've been hashing with them for a couple months at much lower difficulty than the Neptunes will. I was very disappointed when they announced the bonus Neptunes after I converted my order. But I think I'll still generate more BTC than Neptune customers.

 After seeing the specs on the shipped Neptunes, I am sure you will make out better than the Neptune customers.  You got a lucky break, many customers just got broken crap they have to RMA.

 You should try selling it to xstr8guy for what you paid for it.  He'll probably jump on a deal like that.


Excuse me? Do you think I'm a KNC shill or something? Of course I wouldn't pay $10,000 for 3THs now and certainly not another miner from KNC. There are far better options available today.

 No but you did say you were "quite satisfied" with your SuperJupe.  Thought you might be interested in bittawm's.  There aren't better options to get 3TH by Monday.

That makes no sense.  Why would KNC says "We expect to ship to Batch 1 pre-order customers this week and to Batch 2 pre-order customers before the end of the month." in their latest posting?

https://www.kncminer.com/news/news-94

So nobody knows a real situation with litecoing hardware from KnC?

Batch 2, October 30th. Expect it no sooner or you will be disappointed

 Because they're so used to feeding us crap as facts that they don't even care to proof-read their cut-and-paste lies anymore.  Classic.

I was talking about Titan, you idiot.

 I see that you and your brother both suffer from poor reading comprehension. It must be hereditary.

The batches that are shipping now are Neptune SHA256 machines. That is what the news relates to.

The other quote is talking about Titan scrypt machines which are not shipping yet and likely will not ship for a while. They only taped out recently...

EDIT: They announced the tape out of the Titan chip on June 5th

I have not received the refund yet nor have I received a delivery and yet they are shipping.  Does this mean I am no longer entitled to my refund?  Do statements about refunds made 6 months ago still apply?! Can you give me your analysis of this situation or would you prefer to wait until I do or don't get a refund to offer up your special brand of creeping determinism?  Please don't leaving me hanging until AFTER something happens...

That is definitely bullshit on kncs part.

I also agree that they had no chance of delivering in q1 so it was bullshit to suggest it was possible.

But you have to accept the fact that you agreed to a shitty contract with an absurd delivery window.

 I accept that but I am still hopeful that one day there will be a company with the integrity to do what they say they'll do.

They better hurry up. Alpha supposedly has 250gh  shipping mid to late July.

supposedly says whom ?

 "We will also be releasing a full guide on how to use the miners both with the WebGUI and without it before shipment (which will begin somewhere from the 15th-31st of July)"

Says Alpha.

They said MARCH! Then they said Q1/Q2 - in this way, people were certain to order @ $12,995 USD.
"We will ship no devices in December 2013, January 2014 or  February 2014. Meaning that once we have taken the difficulty up at the end of November we will not release any more hashing power for 3 months. We will then release our new generation of devices, which will begin shipping in March 2014. These devices will also have a much higher GH/$ rating than any of our current offerings."

 If they had actually said "June", they wouldn't have sold ANY!

So a statement made 1 year ago before the announcement of neptunes somehow means a definite shipping date?

Q1/Q2 means shipping some time before july. Most people understood this but if you were naive enough to think you would be getting a neptune in march hopefully you learned your lesson with preorders.

Next time don't preorder from a company that provides a 6 month shipping window. In fact you should never preorder hardware that doesn't exist.

 Well Jimmy, as I explained, I believe they were well aware of what they did in planting the seed in our minds about March.  What did that mean to you?  Nothing?  Why did they state it?  Most normal people make statements to communicate their thoughts and intentions.  Q1/Q2 actually means January, February, March, April, May, June and while I probably don't have to explain this to you, March means March.
"New generation of devices" means NeptuneNeptune being the name they gave to their next generation device.
 The difference here is that I was trying to predict the future of events based on the information I was able to garner from KNCminer in order to make an investment decision while you are able to see this event as having been predictable despite there being little if any objective basis for its occurrence.  Which is probably why you say Q1/Q2 means "some time before July" and statements made one year ago are invalid since they don't fit your perception of what transpired while congratulating yourself for doing nothing and staying safe.

 So, when March came and went, I requested a refund.  KNCminer had said I could have a refund "right up until shipment".  I have not received the refund yet nor have I received a delivery and yet they are shipping.  Does this mean I am no longer entitled to my refund?  Do statements about refunds made 6 months ago still apply?! Can you give me your analysis of this situation or would you prefer to wait until I do or don't get a refund to offer up your special brand of creeping determinism?  Please don't leaving me hanging until AFTER something happens...
