Just out of interest Xian01, who isn't on your shit-list of companies? I notice you spent $8600 on 360Ghs (180Ghs x2) Antminers but you don't think that 3TH a $13K is a good deal?

Do you really not understand the difference between a miner delivered *this* week, and one that might be delivered in 6 months?

i thought antminer was vaporware?

Unfortunately, going to need to add KNC to a list of companies I won't be dealing with after seeing this price gouging and ordering shenanigans for this next gen. (Excuse me ? You honestly wanted me to order your products through resellers that I have even less trust in than you ?!?)

 Congrats to everyone that got in on this at $10k.

 Newbies pay $13k ? Yeah, sorry Sam. Will be dealing with your competitors instead on principle. Life is too short to deal with that sort of nonsense.


Its not just Newbies, thats the price for previous customers as well.

 Are you completely discounting the events of last week where previous customers were able to order these for $10k ?


when all of us ordered month ago with knc, there was possibility we were gonna be scammed, knc offered that since we believed in them, they would offer us a perk for having faith in them, 3k off the neptune was that perk...


Agreed but I think even the discounted price was still excessive.  They have made a lot of money off us and could have cut the price further.  By Sam's own admission they are betting on HashFail and ConTerra not delivering on time or to spec.  The first batch Neptunes had better arrive quickly and destroy the competition so we make money again.

yep

Of course the real kicker is that I had to pay VAT on my $9995 which totals near $12,200 so not such a great deal in comparison to anyone buying one anywhere else in the world Tongue

Of course not, but I'm saying if I want to order another one now, I have to pay $13K as well. Just clarifying that its not just newbies that have to pay the new price, but existing customers who wouldn't or couldn't take advantage of the earlier deal. Its not like existing customers will still get the discounted price going forward is all I meant Smiley

the 10k price was a promotion for early adopters.....the 13k price is what they were always going to charge to "newbies" and everyone else.....

i don't see how this is so hard to understand, have you never heard of a promotional price before?

No, but I did find with my 4 VRM one that putting the volts up too much turned the core off like your Die 2 is showing.

Is that what your trying to do? Get Die 2 up and running?
yep this is what i am trying. it would be very nice if you could share your settings.

Hmm, I'd reset it all to default, what are your individual die voltages at default? Mine are -0.1121V on all dies. You can get it back to defaults by hitting "Reset to Factory Defaults"

Then just increase ASIC1 - Die2 by 0.01V increments till you get to 0 leaving it for a few minutes at a time. I didn't have a completely dead die, well I didn't when I started, but I stopped a few dies by overvolting them, but got them back by putting it back to defaults and being more cautious.

It takes time, I had putty open in the screen session watching for cores disabling and bertmod in one browser to confirm what die the core disabled, then I would tweak the voltage on that die little bit by little bit until it came back on again. Then the waiting game for more dies to turn off, etc etc.

Similar patience is needed when overclocking CPU/GPU/Memory for benchmarking. A PITA to do while its happening, but very satisfying when you get it working.

Of course you may just have a terminally faulty module, which you will have to RMA  Sad
i think this board needs a RMA Sad. this are the default values:

my two other modules looks like the second on the picture.

this is not "nonsense"

 It is if you are trying to gain new and loyal customers.

Indeed, mega unimpressed by BA, they promised it would be found and placed on the first flight yesterday and couriered straight over, and gave me a number 'direct' to the help desk in Heathrow.

24 hours later, no contact, when you call the 'direct' number it's a help desk in Delhi, no trace of package, nothing sent on any following first day's flight...

As Cyper said though it wasn't the ideal place for a demo, location is typically a club, comfortable, but for some bizarre reason as loud as it would be on a standard evening music wise.


Orama, you should try carrying one of the following trackers inside your luggage or better yet inside the miner to help you trace the location if your package goes missing again.
