I bet that's a function of a website template. Also, it is possible for a company named X to do business as Y (i.e., a brand). For example, "Dunkin' Donuts" is a brand name that lots of franchisees do business as. No big deal.
Yeah, and you need to officially register a DBA if you're going to do that. This is not optional. |

"Copyright © 2014 nTek Computers" How does a "brand" copyright something? I strongly suggest you stop implying nTek is a company and make it right. I don't think Virginia will approve of how you are doing business. |

So i connected the PCI-E cords from the power supply to the 2 board and no power. Is there a set-up guide somewhere, or did someone already ask about setting up an Antminer somewhere on the forum? I could provide pics if someone is willing to help. I thought the miner would be ready to go out of the box.
How did you switch on the power supply? There are setup threads in the Custom Hardware subforum. |

That is good news. KnC might be able to ship in Q2 if all goes well. |

Perhaps we should concentrate on caching the scammers, so we don't have to fill the thread with posts that are just slowing us down by accusing the victoms of being the perpetrators and other idiotic comments.
Ignore the haters, but pay close attention to the sceptics. There are a lot around here, for very good reason. Now you really know why a lot of people give the hardware vendors a hard time. So often they fail and/or are purposefully scamming people. |

MPP will ship when Difficulty is 400% higher.   MPP started Oct 30. Add 90 days and you get Jan 28th! MPP tomorrow! |

When 1.6GH of ANTMINERS take 3.2KW and 1.6GH of Cointerra takes 2.1KW you begin the realize the whole 28nm vs 55nm debate is next to pointless. The cost of the box and its useful life makes worrying about the relative power draw the least of the problems. To be fair the cost for ANTMiners was quite a bit higher in the beginning, but the last couple weeks it was only 15.2BTC (~$12K) for 1.6GH of ANTS which could already be mining TODAY.
For larger miners that 1000 watts still adds up though, big time farms for 2014 really will have to be built on 28nm hardware to be competitive. If you want 20Thash of Antminers you're going to be spending a TON more money on electricity, it's not insignificant for larger farms. At $.15/kwh that's $1314 per year. 1.6 TH/s generates that in under 5 days. But if you're worried about power draw, you're better off using Bitfury chips until someone comes along with a more efficient chip. No one has shown a 28nm chip with better power drawn that Bitfury's 55nm chip. |

actually. lets put this in terms that are easier to compare... do we prefer CT try to be more like KNC... and deliver quickly to customers...
Did you really just compare CT with KNC? KNC delivered 2 weeks late with 50% greater hashrate. Customers were fairly compensated. CT is delivering 2 months late, at -20% hashrate. Ouch!!! |

If they shipped the expected 2000GHs now, started mining in Feb '14, and took the default assumptions on the website, you'd be looking at a lifetime cumulative return of $9190. I know, this is a completely fictional number, but we have to start somewhere. http://thegenesisblock.com/mining/a/ac1fbf2676 Sadly, reality happened. They are shipping 1800GHs now, so you can start mining in Feb '14. Lifetime cumulative return of $7510. http://thegenesisblock.com/mining/a/9090810af2You're down about $1700, but you're still very profitable. Batch 1 might start mining Feb '14. Those cost $15,750 and are thus going to be a huge loss due to the delay. Who knows when Batch 2 will ship. |

Did these scammers ever fulfill their promise of donating 1,000 BTC to charity?
They donated a small portion of it to charities. They rest they "donated" to themselves. |

This is NOT a BFL product for sale
Correct. therefore BFL is not selling it
Incorrect. BFL is obviously selling it, on their website, using their own shopping cart, and the payment goes straight to BFL. By all definitions BFL is selling the product. |

Malcom: “So that’s the current state in china ... you’re not allowed to deposit money into your Bank account for Bitcoin.”
What does that mean? I understand *withdrawing* money from your bank account for bitcoins, but how do you *deposit* money into a bank for bitcoins? Do banks now sell bitcoins? |

I actually think this likely makes HashFast the most energy efficient miner currently until CT can redesign their board. Still NOONE below 1W per GH/s at the wall. (sorry D&T, I know W is not the correct way to measure).
A standard clocked Bitfury rig from MegaBigPower runs 400 GH/s at 350 watts at the wall. |
|
|
|
The Jupiters are around 1W per GH/s at the wall (more or less depending on the firmware used, ambient temperature, etc.).
Big deal. KnC, 28nm, 1w per GH/s. Bitfury, 55nm, .9w per GH/s. KnC's chip is nothing to brag about. |

the site says they use a common(shared) R&D facility, so I'm assuming same for chips
Read their claims carefully. 5) As we have stated, we have been developing the ASICs in house for the past year. Our 20nm microprocessors are built here in the UK. We do not use an external foundry.
You really believe they have a secret 20nm foundry? |
|
|
|
Just because no one previously had a 20nm fab facility, does not mean that one has been built or is being built now. Of course if one was being built it would certainly be kept secret, until the announcement.
If there is a secret 20nm fab, it sure as hell isn't CMS's. |

that's a terrible effort by the PROS OF ASIC with a design FROM THE GROUND UP!! (not just some slapped together KNC rush job) I run two jupiters with two expansion boards overclocked mildly ~1.5Th @ 1800watts at the wall so the big scary clownterra is doing basically the same as my rigs but 4 months after KNC  CLOWNS Compare both to Bitfury's 55nm chip well under .9 watts per GH/s at the wall and the C in KnC stands for clown also. |

The production units that we have assembled and tested so far are running at between 1.63TH/s and 1.72TH/s with power draw at the wall between 1900W and 2100W – typically 20% higher than our anticipated target of 1650W
20%??? What happened to: The chip will consume less than 300w, for a performance of 504 Gh/s.
Sounds like you missed the power target by quite a bit more than 20%. |
