mine to the hashing speed go from 678 to 672 gh with new firmware Tongue

dang young duffer.....when my 'old' Jupiter 555gh unit.....I got on Oct 18th....BTC was about $150 USD.......

so my first batch is old and slow.....(the 34 btc I have so far is nice thou!)

(frigging generic/old folks home miner jeez..what a silly hobby)

Hmm, it seems their second batch Neptune are on sale for 9,995. I thought that price was strictly for previous customers! So first 9.5K then 12.5K and then back to 9.5K. Roll Eyes

you forgot to mention the month later part... but that's the theme of this thread

By that token it should be priced at 7K. I have a feeling this is going to be like with Nov jupiters, no clear advantage to being earlier in the waiting list.

@Searing, so you plan on selling your Jupiter for the price of a pre-order Neptune? It's a gamble but *shrug* who knows what will be.

not sure not greedy.......I "supposedly" could get more then 15k from the nuts on ebay....but then again they could do a reversal....proably just get BTC from someone on here
then again I've no clue what to ask...get my ROI of 7131.80 would be nice.....(probably dreaming)

advice welcome

and hopefully I'm not off topic ..the discussion is along the lines of "what the heck is a fair price btc to folks on here (kncminer forum..not ebay) of a oct Jupiter 555.7gh unit (on slush)....more or less...uniformed (me) minds would like to know/guess....kinda sorta know?

yeah crap I should probably sell my oct Jupiter 555.7gh steady sometime soon..........with difficulty rate going up get what I can ...others have any comments or success in such an endeavor......(ebay scares me ....probably just take btc)

oops prob off topic...but this is a general 'what if' "how to' knc Jupiter sell /punt question don't ya know

I dropped a good 4-5 Gh/s with 99.1-tune, from the last .99-tuning FW. October Saturn.
just fyi.
Not sure if bert mod works with this one?. I haven't gotten any warning for cores off/on via Putty.
So I'm going back for now. Wink

I've had 0.99.1 running on my November Jupiter for 8 hours now. My avg hash rate in cgminer has gone down from 679 to 674.
I believe this is because they changed the hash rate calculation in the knc driver to now exclude hardware errors.
https://github.com/KnCMiner/cgminer/commit/2d448072df379d962c28d7935999d527b4760475

The main difference for me with this fw, is that all the values seem to converge to their long term average much faster. In previous versions it would take quite a while (days) to even out the many hardware errors in the beginning.

My HW has gone down from 1.21% to 1.01% and WU is up from 9404 to 9424, but it's not enough of a change to be noticeable in the poolside charts.

I did say Nov boxes pointed at Eligius would probably be the happiest. This is not a major update, that still has work to be done, but this was enough to address some issues w.r.t. hardware errors there prior to Christmas and V had a bee in his bonnet to tackle it this side of the hol. If you see better performance on a previous fw, then go for what you know... Wink

Hi BitcoinOrama,

I just send you 0.009999 BTC for a cup of coffee while waiting for the next plane.
Merry Chrismas and Happy new Year!

BTW, this unofficial firmware does not solve Die #0 problem and I do hope KnC fix that problems first and then tuning up in 2014.

Haha awesome, thanks man!

Please help.Need SD-card full image of October Saturn (Saturn-B52, 4 VRM) firmware. PLEASE.

not sure..but you MAY HAVE better luck on the www.kncminer.com forum page.

no idea just saying..I know some have images on there you could contact them via PM

Or on IRC

Batch 2 jupiters released wtf
https://www.kncminer.com/products/neptune-second-batch

Why is this batch 2 again? I thought they already sold batch 2 for like $13K??? and now this is back to $10K?

No, that was the second lot of batch 1...

More interestingly is that "Refund in US$ up to shipment" disappeared from the product description....

would that apply to everyone who ordered a Neptune...the "refund to us$ up to shipment" or just apply to the current batch?

(this may determine how brave I am on further Jupiter 'miner protection units" should they come out soonest... if I do that I'd likely not be brave enough for my 2nd Neptune..now if I'm stuck with my 2nd Neptune..i'm not brave enough to spring for the "miner protection Jupiter units" should they appear in jan 2014 (clear as mud right?)

anyway you get my drift (I have a small window of sanity in all this trying not to rock the ..metaphysical so to speak....whatever sanity I have left in this BTC guessing game)

yeah this is getting interesting....with cointerra and hashfast prob trickling out till say march/april....BFL being say 3 months late...KNC being early..this stuff could all dump in march/april prob the same week with my luck

what we looking at for Neptune batch 1's 0.1 btc a day?.....

not trying to be doom and gloom here....but whats the MATH (i'm doofus at math) ..better minds then me opinions?

My guess

16Petahash by march/april...easily Sad

Which would mean diff @ 2345440000,for 500GH @ $653.97 per BTC(current exchange rate):

Coins Dollars
per Day 0.10720942 BTC $70.11
per Week 0.75046593 BTC $490.78
per Month 3.25916632 BTC $2,131.40

Good luck!!!!!!!! Wink

Orama,

Thank you for everything you've done for us, we appreciate it! Would you be willing to answer a few speculative questions?

In your opinion, what is the next milestone in the development of the Neptune?
What do you think is the biggest obstacle to shipping the Neptune sooner rather than later?
Do you think it's likely that the Neptune will continue to use PCI-E power connectors and require multiple ATX power supplies?

Orama will the new firmware be applied to hosted machines too?

Undoubtedly, but perhaps when the update is finalised and official. Treat this like the 0.98.1 beta, I'll probably get in trouble, no one else was here to sign it off, but it's still stable unofficial release.

We played with it the last 48 hours and it helped out on spec the Nov Jupiters pointed at Eligius and contains the latest CGMiner release without you having to code anything yourself, but it's not the full fat update V would have been satisfied with releasing. Knew most would want something rather than nothing and I missed my flight home because of this as a laptop that chose not to update it's clock, so enjoy of it helps you. No harm otherwise. Wink
