Exactly. I only bought a KNC rig because it was supposed to be upgradeable with extra modules. Intending to let it earn it's own module upgrades. Too fucking late now. One tiny batch of modules which were probably RMA or something that sells out in minutes with no warnng was pathetic.
Out of curiousity, what boards did people get in the last firesale? What no/revisions were they? 3813? 4813? Rev a? Rev b? Rev V. (vaporware) |

I would not jump to conclusions. A large company the exports all the time is not going to put the wrong value on a shipment and risk their business.
Screw the large company exporting, they are causing accounting and customs problems for the customers who are receiving the packages. I declared an expense of USD $22,400 when I bought the equipment. I now have an IM4 document proving the import of the equipment at CAD $2435.20. I have a virtual VAT invoice (due to ET license we never pay VAT at import) of EUR 382.70 that does not match my original purchase. My beancounter is going to love me when I submit the papers in 2 days for M01 2014... For Belgian customs it's not such a problem they are lax (flexible?), but for example German customs is known to flag and hold cases like this where the declared value does not match the published (on a website) value they google. Shouldn't they be declaring the value at 51BTC, or $40k+? |

I also received my babyjet today (i was one of the last 50 regular orders of batch one). I found a lot of loose screws too, what are they doing? Lenovo is also able to ship computers without having half a dozen loose screws in it when they arrive..  Anybody received the upgrade kit already? eh, you are no KNC.....
 That's true... HashFast's chips are about 3 times more powerful when compared on a GH per sq.mm basis. HashFast is shipping with top-shelf quality Sea Sonic PSUs, so our customers won't have to put up with exploding/self-immolating units like KNC's did. In addition, HashFast lined up an exclusive with CIARA, which means HashFast machines will be assembled and shipped with utmost expediency (no random guys helping load some random van), in professional/durable packaging. That means double-walled boxes, so HashFast customers' hardware won't arrive broken like so much of KNC's did. Finally, (again unlike KNC) HashFast has been working closely with ckolivas for a long time to ensure cgminer works flawlessly with our innovative new GN Protocol, Global Work Queue, etc. |

Yeah, well they're going ot have to sell upgrade modules for less than 1.45BTC cause that's the price of antminers on bitmaintech.com. Yeah, the only ones getting their share of the network are antminers. I just used the coins I was keeping handy for KNC on antminers. Shipping starts Feb 8th.
Who starts shipping Antminers on 8th and at what price ? Thank you very much They've been shipping since December 15th or so. They took a break starting today for the CNY. It ends the 8th. Hoping KNC responds before then!I have several antminers already, rock solid units. 350W so not horrible, but no Jupiter. 1.45BTC each for 180GH, start shipping after Chinese New Year, bitmaintech.com |

They don't care. I know someone who sent a 6 figure $ offer and they turned it down saying they didn't have anything to sell.

good news is that you dont need to be the machine's original owner to do the RMA. bad news is they dont do advanced RMA or cross-shipping. the quote below is from Kurt on the KNC forum.
edit - bad news is that is still time (and consequently money) lost without being able to hash.

It's typically a 1 week turn around. Better than a kick in the teeth. |

Just got back from setting up my 12 Baby Jets. I have Scrypt rigs running in the back. 95Mh/s. I got tired of waiting for HashFast.  Nice setup indeed, but are you sure the mpp units. Which protects you against the evil combo (difficulty raise+late shipping). Will fit in there? I keep asking folks the same question but no one answers this. Even the ones who have received the hardware. It looks like only 1 more board will fit in there, even then, where would the other radiator go? |

Just got back from setting up my 12 Baby Jets. I have Scrypt rigs running in the back. 95Mh/s. I got tired of waiting for HashFast. HashFash really needs some more Quality Control.. I'm not talking about Major problems. Of the 12, I only have 1 having problems. But a lot of minor stuff: Random screws loose and rattling in the case Random Case parts (i think HDD bays) loose and rattling in the case 1/4th of the BJ's had the fans from the Radiator set the wrong way. Or 3/4th, depends how you look at it. 1/4th were pulling air down into the case. Only 1 fan in the back of the case was exhaust. Random SD cards! I swear, there were like 3 different brands. I'm not sure, think all were 1GB. That's about it. I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to get these right. A loose screw in the case could short the board or fall into the radiator. eh, you are no KNC.....

And thank you for bringing your stellar contribution to the discussion  . Hey, you're free to waste your time arguing idiotic semantics if you want. But by the same token, the rest of us are free to point and laugh at you for being pedantic dipshits. I always find it ironic how often people who claim not to have the time to waste on such insignificant discussions do in fact just that... and then just to add the cherry on top comment about other people wasting their time . I've got plenty of time to waste. I just prefer to do it laughing at dipshits. Semantics are fucking boring. Might as well be entertained by the stupidity of others, I always say. You always say that? I've read every single post you've ever made on this forums and every other forum on the internet, and you have never once said that before. |

So for those reading along Butterfly Labs IS selling Cloud Hashing services on their website that you can buy TODAY and purchase through the BFL shopping cart, click pay, and they will take your money and provide the service.
That's still incorrect. BFL isn't providing the service. Y'all can argue the semantics of the word "sell" all you want, but the service provider is decidedly not BFL. The way I see it is if the ASICs break, Nimbus will have to send it to BFL for RMA, so BFL is simply a reseller of Nibus who is a reseller of BFL. |

Guys, what do you think is a realistic price on the master controller board with the beaglebone?
A friend of mine bought a miner from phoenix some time ago and Phoenix gave a 2nd controller board for free, which my friend lend out to me to use with my 4 upgrade modules I bought from KNC.
Now he wants to sell it and is offering me to buy it, but because I plan on selling the miner soon I wonder:
should I buy the board from him to keep the miner complete and sell it as it is?
or give it back to him and sell it as Upgrade modules only?
I wonder what a fair price is? It's a very hard to find component, yet is it unknown if anyone actually needs it at the moment.
Is $1000 a realistic price?
I bought a Saturn with no ASICs for $600 on eBay. He had 2 Saturns, and combined them to a Jupiter, so I got the case, controller board and BBB. |

Sorry, but KNC is busy protecting their customers' share of the network. (Protecting the share from increasing) |

Guys, check out the sweet GPU I just bought directly from Sapphire. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814202080Amazing card. But I think I might send it directly back to sapphire to exchange it for the 290x. Although, I fear the package may have been lost in shipping, so I will be contacting Sapphire directly to replace the package that didn't arrive. http://www.sapphiretech.com/presentation/support/?cid=2&psn=000202&lid=1Question: Can I order directly from Sapphire? Are you an end-user? Answer: Unfortunately there is no possibility for end user to order directly at Sapphire Technology. Please contact a online retailer/distributor. You can find a range of retailers here. Will that retailer RMA that device for you? Sorry for the delay in responding, been EXTREMELY busy, I had to go to Walmart and buy some Duracell Batteries directly from Duracell, Had to buy some Peaches directly from some farmers, had to buy some oranges directly from some farmers that then had to be made into Simply Orange orange juice. Worst of all I bought a Dell laptop and the graphics card went out, It was an nVidia GPU so I had to send it back directly to TSMC for the RMA (Which was a pain because I had to send it to Dell first which then they, I'm sure, sent it to nVidia for me, and then undoubtedly nVidia sent it back to the fab so TSMC could bust out a new wafer) But that's not the worst part, the worst part is trying to keep track of all the purchases I made, as my Dell laptop I had to buy several chips from Cirrus Logic, a bunch from Texas Instruments, Broadcom, Intel, AMD, That's a lot of direct purchases. |

I'm trying not to laugh at your stupidity... BFL ain't selling this... Next you'll be saying TigerDirect is a shill company for selling BFL products....... Really? For a genius you can't read to fucking well... Here let me copy and paste from BFL's website for you so it's a little easier. Purchase Terms: NimbusMiner contracts are served by nimbusminer.com. Butterfly Labs (BF Labs Inc.) acts as the hardware supplier and the retail sales agent for this mining contract product. Support and service is provided by nimbusminer.com. NimbusMiner hardware is provided from either off the shelf 65nm products or from NimbusMiner's own 28nm hardware as it comes into service from it's own pre-ordered purchases of Monarch chip production. BF Labs is absolutely selling this and they spell it out in plain old English so even super intelligent people like yourself can understand it. ROFL, You highlighted it yourself: RETAIL AGENT. BFL is doing for Nimbus what Tigerdirect is doing for BFL, acting as a go-between. BFL didn't set the price, they are just advertising it, yet you and all the other fools are all like "BFL is so stupid for setting this price at 4x what the monarch pricing per GH is". Contine to play your little word games, you trolls love to twist things that you don't understand. I'm still laughing at your stupidity! For someone with a self claimed IQ of 138 (IIRC), you sure have a poor grasp of comprehending written English. Your posts and general contributions to this forum lead me to believe you're closer in intelligence level to say a retarded donkey than a normal human being let alone genius. You don't remember correctly, but then again, I don't care. Let me break this down into kindegarten for you: 1) BFL is not hosting said service 2) BFL is not setting the price on said service If I were to use YOUR logic, then TigerDirect is owned by BFL since they are offering BFL products. Or, conversely, BFL is owned by TigerDirect as TigerDirect is selling BFL products. Have you seen the stupidity of your ways yet? Nah, didn't think so. Hey shit for brains feel free to highlight where I suggested, implied or said that BFL was hosting said service or that BFL was setting the price on said service. I was simply correcting your lie when you said BFL was not SELLING it, which any non retarded person can clearly see they are. Dude, if you keep mistaking me for your brother, I may get offended. It's obvious YOUR definition of this and mine differ, and the way you and the others in this thread go on, makes it sound like you hold BFL accountable for the pricing, etc. Take a look: There goes your Monarch's Pre-order money to fund their cloudhashing facility!!!
Wow, they will turn on mining for 4 times the price $40 vs $11 while customers wait for the monarchs are activated and the cheaper cloud mining is activated. BFL is unscrupulous
So much for them promising to never do something like this. They could've at least waited for a month or two after their customers Monarch's launched.
BFL has no soul. This is NOT a BFL product for sale, therefore BFL is not selling it, Nimbus is, BFL is merely facilitating my purchase by acting as a go-between. If I purchase an airline ticket through a travel agency, I am not buying FROM the agency, I am buying FROM the airline and they are merely facilitating it. If the airline loses my baggage, I cannot go after the travel agency for it, it's the airlines fault. Along those same lines, if Nimbus fails at their 'cloud hashing', you cannot hold BFL responsible for being the agent, the fault lies with Nimbus.

Ah, back up again. KnC mining perfectly, my USB BEs dying off one by one, Blade is okay as is the Jalapeno. Waiting for a cable guy and he's to be here 23 minutes ago to 5PM. Decided to let them in just so they know the increased power isn't for a grow house. My chickens will go crazy and not lay much for a day. Dog will raise holy hell. Digital cable down. They lowered power I think. Probably want me to upgrade to a newer box. I don't expect any chaff about the miners. He will berate me on my VCR cablebox setup as I don't want the cablebox controlling but rather the VCR which has additional inputs and ouputs. They want the cablebox first as it's restrictive. To use the VCR and its inputs/outputs as I want I need put in a splitter. I don't think he'll like my alternative which is one or two more lines in for free so I don't need the splitter. Absolutely must find an alternative to cable but no DSL in this area of the hinterland. Could get a 56k modem line. Must stop in and see my old CCNA instructor and find out what my alternatives are - he will know. Must keep the KnC mining.
have you got good mobile phone coverage (3G).? I bought a Billion BiPAC 7800VDOX ADSL+ router and it has USB port which can take a USB 3G dongle. I've also bought a sim with a network provider which has 10Gb download valid for 12 months and cost $99 AUD, which I use as backup if DSL goes down. Seems to work just as good as my DSL. nouveau bitcoin riche I moved from a stimoble prepaid cell which had lousy reception to PagePlusCellular via kittywireless. Just using the phone and haven't used any web. The phone is a HTC Incredible2 so I don't see any tethering like I could do with the stimoble until they banned me from web usage. still waiting....30 minutes left in the arrival window All done. The problem is that with the VCR first the box can't communicate with the office for pay-per-view which I never buy. So, when do we get to buy upgrade cards? As soon as KNC runs out of controller boards for their cloud hosting |

You should be able to safely run 2 Ants on a 1000W PSU, or 3 ants on a 1300W PSU.
I would not try to run 4 Ants on a single PSU. It's difficult and expensive to find a single PSU that can run over 1600W.
Each Ant requires 2 dedicated PCI-E cables to safely run.
I'm running 2 ants per AX860 PSU and 3 ants per EVGA G2 1300W PSU |
