Anyone have any idea whether KNC is going to offer anything for sale in the interim?

Before I invest in another platform for immediate delivery I'd like some kind of idea if anything is possible on the KNC side.

Its almost the 10th of January and time is a wastin'

Apologies for the late reply.
That is correct, all cables are rated 80 degrees Celsius for testing. You can withstand temparature up to 80 degrees Celsius with any issues.

Kind regards,

Thats handy to know, one would assume that most of the other big desktop brands Corsair, Antec, Seasonic etc would be roughly the same

Most probably yes, but I would not advise anyone to run their cables at above 50C.
Mine were reaching 48 during the day, so I just installed a fan to blow onto them which lowered the temp to 38C.

Yeah I swapped out my Corsair rm-850 with an Antec 1300w hcp 94% platinum on my oct jup when my nov jup arrived I bought one for each miner. Cables on both miners are cold to the touch and the oct jup power usage dropped by 30 watts compared to rm-850.

The Antec's also have oc link so you can link 2 psu's together for 2600w which still probably wouldnt be enough for a neptune Tongue

Is the refund policy on Neptune the same as it was for the Jupiter series?

It should be. Some ppl in this forum have already gotten refunds processed for their neptune orders.

I just put in my request to refund my Neptune order.

Worried I cannot meet the power requirements needed (I live in an apartment).  Hosted solution would be better for me.  Also I have a 2nd batch order.. that's like 4+ extra levels of difficulty by the time I'd even get it.

If you mine with KncMiner: just fill 2 pool information at Mining tab.
You can create cgminer.conf and copy it to the directory: /config  and restart CGminer

{
  "pools": [
    {
      "url": "pool address 1",
      "user": "your username",
      "pass": "mypass"
    },
    {
      "url": "pool address 2",
      "user": "your username",
      "pass": "mypass"
    }
  ],
  "api-listen": true,
  "api-allow": "W:0/0",
  "api-network": true
}


You don't need to do that, the conf file is automatically created and you can edit it directly from the web interface by clicking "Manual Edit Mode"

Sorry to spam the thread but reddit has not turned the tide

Still growing, pool speed up from 4.16PH to 4.61PH over last 2 work shifts (8 mins each).  Perhaps they'll reach 51% by the weekend ?


doesn't the bitcoin foundation stop any pool from hitting 51%?

I'm not sure but didn't BTC Guild or 50BTC stop new registrations a few months back when they nearly reached 51%?  

or wouldn't GHash.io stop themselves as 51% could potentially destroy bitcoin and/or devalue bitcoin?

DeepBit had over 51% in 2011 and nothing happened...

Btw someone might be interested in my communication with CoolerMaster:

Question:

Quote
Maximum safe temperature for PCI-E cables: I have a Cooler Master V850 to power a specific hardware that is using 4
PCI-E cables with a total DC power consumption of around 700W.
So each PCI-E cable is drawing around 175W or a current of 14.5A.
My main concern is that the cables near the PSU reach a temperature of
45-46 degrees. Then again the markings on the cables says 80 degrees,
which I assume is the maximum safe temperature?

So is a temperature of 46 degrees on the outside of the hottest cable safe?

Thank you.

Hash rate is around 13 PH, Ghash is around 4PH => Ghash + BTCGuild can make sense and destroy Bitcoin.

never asked but if they hit 51% does that automatically screw the pooch or do they have to actively use that clout to attack the network (ie actually do something)

unclear never really looked into it

They don't automatically screw the pooch, but they control the entire network.  Bitcoin is a "trustless" consensus ledger and solution to the Byzantine Generals Problem.  Whoever has the longest end of the chain controls the blockchain.

No single entity should have that power, and the next question who are "they" ?

Anonymous russian dudes is about all we know.
