I have NEVER paid a penny for a faulty item to be replaced or repaired, this is called a warranty and is the whole fucking point of one. To keep the customer happy because he has peace of mind that his product will always be available during the warranty period, I have never even paid postage. When it breaks under warranty that is THE VENDORS/ MANUFACTURERS fault and their responsibility to sort out free of  charge.


KnC sent me UPS express shipping label to RMA 2 of my board a few weeks back and I received 100% working ASIC board in 3 business days 5,481 miles (8769 km) away (shipped Friday, received Wednesday).  So I am not really sure why you are all flustering over nothing?  You really have nothing better to do then to troll here about an imaginary problem that doesn't exist?
Exactly. Some would rather just cry, whine & moan than get off their duff to actually do something about it... but it's their choice... I say..... let them whine if their too lazy to have their Pick axe sharpened... They'll just mine less, and therefore get less....  which is exactly the price of laziness.
It's 3:39 AM in Hawaii right now. Are you such a sad git you sit in front of a computer day and night pressing F5 on this page? Do you even have a job, do you actually do anything? And you are describing other people as lazy. Maybe you should get a life and stop taking every opportunity to take pot-shots at people. Get away from your computer, maybe go out into the world you lame-o and do something with yourself, rather than keyboard-jockeying 24-7? You make yourself out to be some "man of action" here, when you just seem to be some saddo sitting at a computer 7 days a week, day and night.

hey orama,

i got one november jupiter that has 3 die disabled on one board. any advise??



I think we need to wait for the tuning suite, mines like this currently (657Gh/s):

Board 0 - 3 Cores off - All VRM fine
Board 2 - 3 Cores off - VRM 7 - FAULT 4
Board 3 - 3 Cores off - VRM 0,2,5,7 - FAULT 4
Board 4 - 2 Cores off - All VRM fine

yeah, i am lookin forward for the tuning-suite too

here it looks more like this

Board 0 - 3 dies off

so its running at 25%

how to look-up the VRMs??

ok also if have more than one miner

is better to put all the miner at same btc adress
or but for every miner different adress?Huh

Don't use a different address, but at the end of each address put an underscore and a unique name to set them apart. _jupiter1 _jupiter2

thanks for the info

using one address and the unique underscore name, does it still let you view each miner stats separately?

Yep thats what I do, and in the graph they are coloured differently, plus you can clock on "Toggle display of Worker details" and you get the stats in numbers rather than a graph.

See the Eligius FAQ: http://eligius.st/~gateway/faq-page#t9n72

Neptunes are down to 787/1500
KNC details say only 1200 will be sold this batch.

Leaving 487 units up for grabs.

Don't forget kncminer.cn they seem to still have Jupiters for sale
Shhh! First rule of knc miner - don't mention knc china.

Yes, it overlays them one on top of each other upon the graph.

You get a different colour for each worker.

Cool, I must try this.

This.

I grew up during the beginning of the computer revolution. By comparison, from my observations, the KNC devices are free of defect. The early "consumer" computers did not function without tinkering. My first computer was an IMSAI Altair. I still have fond memories of that machine, even though my watch has a much more powerful processor now. But it was not "plug it in and it works". You had to have quite a bit of knowledge JUST to plug it in! And then you had to get it to talk to a terminal (Televideo 101 in my case). Then, if you wanted to retain any of your data, you had to either build a floppy disk controller or a tape deck controller on an S-100 template (or spend a few hundred 1974 dollars to have someone do it) by hand, build a cable to interface with the damn thing, and hope it worked. THEN you had to code in a bootstrap routine (again, by hand, often by punch card in those days, though I used the terminal). From there you could program in such cool things as terminal emulation, or get a C/PM OS which had it built in (but not the basic bootstrap, that had to be hand coded) and connect up to your high speed 140 baud modem.

It was a great time, despite how it sounds now. My ONLY problem with these highly experimental ASIC devices is that I couldn't raise the money to get one. If I had, I'd be having a blast tweaking it.

Let's face it, Bitcoin is in itself a grand experiment. It's as fraught with danger of failure as early computers. When I was a kid, mos people thought that computers were strange, and never would amount to anything. Now everyone has one and we live in a wired world. Bitcoin is where computers were in the early '70s. If it succeeds, yeah, there will be properly tested machines at walmart. But that time is in the future. Those of you who got in on it now are the vanguard. It may end in failure and ashes, but it might blow up the way computers did. Either way, you'll have one hell of a story to tell your kids. They won't believe you, just like my son don't believe there was a time without the internet or personal computers or CD's...

But you will know. And you'll remember the tribulations of the early days in a way different light than the current frustration. IBM, Intel and Microsoft didn't change the world, they just provided the tools. WE changed the world.


Great words Biomech !  I sent two of my friends your post. Very inspiring and gives awareness where we are. It's like a hippie or harley. Thank you!

Agreed. Those complaining about Knc quality should go read through the Bitfury thread. Folks are doing all sorts of kludgy things to get their hardware to work properly, including putting packing peanuts between the h-boards!

In my opinion, the Knc offerings are extremely well refined compared to ASIC offerings from other companies. I'm amazed at what they were able to pull off with such a tight schedule!

I don't think that number reflect how many Neptunes are available Wink

Still a tough number to swallow.  If they were more open with (aka, had available) any realistic estimates for hashrate, power usage, etc., they would be sold out by now.  I have to agree with whoever posted above that for the price tag they haven't put enough info forth and have such a wide open delivery window this is more of a faith-based purchase than their first gen devices.  I believe in a lot of things, just not a mining company holding my pre-order funds for up to and including six months.  Been down that road, got lucky it paid itself off due to dramatic rise in price, but for $13k?  My group has the cash but nobody here is that much of a cowboy.

Nice! You should sell these. I for one would buy.

I am no professional carpenter, so it takes me a considerable amount of time to make one of these  Grin
Better to give you the plans and help you build it yourself Wink


Hi CYPER,

very nice, what material are you planning to build them with?  Timber, MDF?

and also, what are you using to draw/design these 3D animated images?  Does the drawing package create the video?

I'd love to have a go at the drawing thingy you're using.  Very cool.

Thanks.

18mm MDF. Total surface area both sides is around 9 sq.m and total weight is 60kg.
Shelves are 60cm by 60cm and total height is around 1.40m. Each compartment is 21cm high.

Sketchup is the program - never used it in my life and after 2-3 hours this is what I made.
Very intuitive and easy to use Wink
Yes, it makes and exports the video.

That program looks like Sketchup.  Pretty easy to use, i like it.

Yes, it is so easy to use. I love it Smiley
