okay, I had a brand-new 700watt atx, that had 5 12v rails, which totally fried just trying to run a Saturn for 5 lousy minutes.  Why?...each of the two pci feeds had a 150 watt rating, and the boards draw very close to that amount. It fried. I'm trying to save you from my mistakes....
Why would anyone want a multirail psu anyway? one rail overloads....you're done.
with a single 12v rail, no single pci feed can overload the psu...nor hamper the hashrate from limiting the current flow due to overdraw....period!
Hope that helps..
*Some may forget, but I'm an energy researcher, and recently consultant to a large energy corporation in development of fuel gasification technologies, more specifically in the development of more efficient systems using resonant energies through the application of harnessing the bounce of signal between a HV coil, and a PWM, as well as the enhancement of combustion through the use of adding Direct Injection, plasma ignition, and Hydroxy gasses made through the harnessing of the coil HV signal bounce, and shunted to a 143 plate cell where it is produced, and then metered into the Gaseous injection system, mixed with the vapors from whatever your fuel is in the gassifier...
enough on that...
but I can't stress enough how the actual current reaching any electronic(especially digital)device is critical to it's performance.

In the future everything will be hosted I imagine.

You keep saying this.  Can you provide some support for this statement please?

Antec, for one, seems to disagree with you.

So, what's the problem then exactly?  Just go back to the firmware that works best then.... You are experiencing what many of us did....do...are experiencing then with the firmware....mine all run best on the 0.98.1 beta, and so I just use that.
I Hope you can get it worked out......  every machine seems to haveit's own attitude!...lol

Pretty Awesome Orama!! KnC is just crapping on the competition!

There will be more info tomo. Figures have been mentioned, but I'm not going to steal anyone else's thunder. They're working hard for this, 20nm is just being released for commercial use, and we'll be one of the first companies in the world to half-step down to this process node. The figures have to make sense, Alchip flew here Friday week before last, and we are proceeding with the design.

No, it's one Jupiter and 2 Saturns. The line is EU (220V), my house also has the "tri-phasic" circuit, I'm a total noob about that I have no idea what kind of line I'm currently using Anyways, the issues only appeared after the 0.99 FW, they ran just fine before that on 0.98.1 (fine meaning getting all dies on at high temps).
Here's a screenshot of the miner at start-up on 0.98.1 now: http://imgur.com/VHqBUf6. The other Saturn is even more weird, it starts normally, it powers up all dies once enough temp is achieved and after a while, it just starts turning off almost all cores on the 2nd ASIC (same asic affected on the other Saturn).
Again, they both run just fine on 0.98, of course with die #0 turned off: http://imgur.com/LbzqRIM

None of the 4 for my GB's have shipped , but glad to hear they are working on it!

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeet!

 All,

Just a quick note to say that the factory started producing the November boxes today and 100 have already left via UPS.

We will ramp up production over night and over the next few days. We aim to have all the November boxes shipped before the end of the month.

Thanks

Okay spikes are variance....?  yes... and what causes that variance?...who knows...have you used a kil-o-watt to see that what you are saying is correct? Yours stay rock-solid on a single wattage reading? Mine don't. The reading on mine at the wall goes up & down in direct correlation with the variance...   and when I had them on a "Shared circuit"  it was terribly obvious the other things going on were effecting it when the kil-o-watt dropped when other things were used in the house, like microwave oven, coffee pot, toaster, aircon, etc....   That's just my observations here, which is why I say that.
You can even watch bertmod to verify what I'm saying.... the vrm output goes up & down with hashrate as well
My VRM's are  outputting a FULL 12v, @ 50amps now btw... and if I said how...Edgar would complain.... but it has to do with temps and clean, unwavering, unlimited power....

I do know our controller board has an Altera fpga on it... this article is more focused on 20nm in general.  

Also according to this article "Advanced Micro Devices said Thursday that it would tape out the first products to be manufactured using 14nm FinFET and 20nm planar process technologies in the coming quarters."

http://www.xbitlabs.com/news/other/display/20131017231002_AMD_to_Tape_Out_First_20nm_14nm_FinFET_Chips_Within_Next_Two_Quarters.html

A quick summary is that even AMD has not yet taped out a 20nm product... and dont even plan on bringing any 20nm products to market in 2014.  This is big news once again if KnC can pull it off!!!

I think these 'spikes in hashrate' you see is just variance.  The chips run at a constant speed.

Variance does not cause your miner to draw more or less current.

O'rama, be nice: can you give us a hint of hashrate? What kind of ASIC will it be?

Ours are made by Alchip & AST.....is that the same as altera?

...An interesting read regarding this announcement(albeit from 2012)...

http://www.altera.com/technology/system-design/articles/2012/20nm-systems-era.html

yep, ouch. single rails provide much cleaner power and are able to supply the extra amperage during the spikes in hashrate... and two 1500watt supplies on a 20 amp circuit is not so good either...(20 amps x 110v = 2200 watt max per 20 amp circuit, (or in EU...220v x 10amp = 2200watt)and you are saying there is more than two jupiters on that circuit?....I really think it's your power situation now for sure...

I don't have one. I am a reseller. I'm in no rush, nor complaining, just thought it would be today for some reason, hahaha. I am naturally quite an optimistic guy.


I've seen a few 7's that have received the notification today. Is anyone going to start a shipping thread on here like the Oct one?
