So I have several sets of Titan Batch 2 cubes I got in june 2015, and they were brand new sealed in the box. 13 cubes have failed in different ways. Ive owned a few computer repairs shops over 20 years , so I have a ton of experience with thermal issues. So far I have 2 cubes with burned PCI-E connectors that I was able to restore and one cube that has 2 dies that read .8v (idle) that I tried the fix KNCminer kept saying would work, and that was to remove the single screw nearest the exhaust and remove the standoff too, and put a screw through a nut that is underneath the cube. The goal was to tighten the pressure on the heatsink. I had 8 cubes that had this issue and it did not work. All it did was start to bend the board in the middle. Ive applied my own fix after listening to KNCminer for over 45 days, and MY fix worked on the first cube I tried. So KNCminer now claim my warranty is void and refuse to help me. I will eventually repair all of these, and then file my class action suit to the tune of $70,000. Guys if you own ANY kncminer product, the deadline to file a lawsuit for the FULL amount YOU paid for them is August 20th 2015. I will be emailing everyone on this thread and letting them know. Im also optimizing my website for many keywords for google so others can see who KNCminer really are. My website bitcoinlasvegas.net is very high ranking on google as I get about 5000 visitors a week. Im already on page one for the search term "Kncminer Batch 2" , so Ill be posting most of the horror stories there. http://bitcoinlasvegas.net/kncminer-titan-batch-2-up-and-running/

Paycon is without a doubt one of the top coins out there!!

Is this YOUR wallet or is this a tweaked version of bucks.. I cashed out of bucks, but if youve got something "special", Ill buy.

Im still talking to Kncminer to see if I can get my cubes RMA. I just sent them a message to see if they will agree to the following terms.

I have 13 bad Titan Batch 2 cubes , about 8 of them have bad/idle dies that sit at .8 volts, Ive done the fix were they have you put a longer screw through the single screw near the exhaust, and put a nut underneath and of the 8 I tried this repair, none of them changed. I have 5 that have melted PCI-E connectors. So, Im under warranty and even sent them the email as proof. Ill report here on the results as they have informed me they watch this thread. 

I told them I would try and fix as many as I could, this would involve my removing and cleaning the melted PCI-E connector and cleaning it. I did this on one that was not working and now it does. So I proposed to them that I fix as many as I could , and the ones that didnt work they would RMA, even the ones that have the melted PCI-E housing removed. Lets see what they say.

The last time this happend to me it was a bad micro sd card

Thank you, I thought somewhere I read that, but I was incorrect.

Thanks
Vegas

This is for batch 2 titan correct? The factory voltages are much higher on batch 1 titans, so if this image is for batch 1 , dont apply to batch 2 titans or it will fry your cubes.

Vegas

While we are on the subject, has anyone been able to solve the issue with the "idle die". KNCminer SWEARS its because the heatsink is not tight enough. Out of the 13 cubes Ive tightened the single screw nearest the exhaust , Ive got 1 cube to work correctly. Its ALWAYS the top two dies #0 and #1. They "idle" at .8v, has ANYONE found a way to get these two dies to work again?

Vegas

I dont see the fury wallet either.

The software I use to image my sdcards is win32diskimager. I simply point to the IMG file on my hard disk and then point to the sd card and click "image" and it images it. Is this what I can expect? When you say set up the pools using "webgui", then I think I hear you saying that the interface will look very similar to what KNC has, were we have to login to the console with 192.168.1.* . We are noobs, so keep this as easy as you can for us. What benefits can we expect? Can you include the latest BFG miner with it, and anything else you think might be beneficial. Can you add a 350 MHZ speed to it?? I have massive delta fans that push 252 CFM on the front , so my miners never get above 50C. To everyone else that wants this, we will be splitting a .5 BTC bounty. So the more people that want this, the less it will cost us each. So, speak up if your interested and willing to pay.

@Gentarkin: Please note: My Kncminers are Batch 2, and Im quite sure use much less voltage than batch one. Factory voltage for batch 2 is : .0366v and factory speed is 300mhz with an option to go to 325MHZ. Would like the option added to go to 350MHZ as I have my massive Delta fans that keep them cool.

Vegas

Thats fine, I have 16GB micro cards. Just make it as easy as imaging a knc image in windows.

Vegas

yes, I have 13 Titan batch 2 cubes that have all the common issues, burned PCI-E connector, dead dies, broken standoffs ect. The biggest problem is the two idle dies , dies 0 and die 1 idle at .8v. Ive already done the "screw fix", by tightening a longer screw through a nut attached to the bottom of the cube, (The single screw nearest the exhaust), but didnt fix it. Dead VRM or dead die. Dont know. KNCminer INSIST that the heatsink is not making good contact with the processor and I have checked it over and over and there are NO gaps between the heatsink and processor and no gaps between the VRM and heaksink and thermal pad. Its air tight. Still idle at .8V for top 2 dies.

Vegas

I wont waste much time with you. Those that are truly interested can read my last posts to many different threads and see that I am a kind and helpful person (except to those that attack me first). You on the other hand are aggressive , demeaning and hateful and never have any kind words. Anyone can read your last posts, and they are not good. Ill leave it at that, Ive got people to help.

Vegas

My website is always on page 1 on google for every search term bitcoin or cryptocoin related. Ive had hell trying to RMA 13 bad Titan cubes with all kinds of issues. So, I used the power of my website to put preassure on KNCminer, and post truths and pictures for any prospective KNCminer buyer. If you want to join my posting your story and posting pics, anyone that searches for ANYTHING Kncminer related will see my page at the top of google.

Thank you for that. The same thing happend to me when I was mining tek. When POS kicked in 30 days later I was getting small rewards every min or 2 , and my wallet became so slow it was near unusable.

Vegas

Would you guys split a bounty of .5 BTC with me for a firmware that is already compiled in an .IMG format, we can easily image to our miners for windows , just like KNCminer has on their github?

Vegas

Well, Spots and his cohorts want to keep perpetuating this crap. So ,all they are doing is hurting Spots' reputation. If I was spots, I would pm them and tell them to back off, and stop posting here. Note: I am not going out of my way to attack anyone, Im only responding to attacks on me. Thats all.

Vegas

Yes, VERY nearly before I realized what a scumbag Spots was I tried to diplomatically work things out. I asked for the same money that I had sent him to be returned to me. Thats all. In return I would end the conflict. Read it again , carefully:  
Thats it, I realized as things moved forward that I was going to lose my investment and wanted only the money I had sent him. I didnt threaten him, I didnt try to get more. In fact when I asked for a refund the original bucks was at $1.30 a coin, and I paid a $1 per coin. So , in reality I was willing to take a loss. In return for a refund, I would not post any details, because I didnt want people lining up for a refund, and they would have. I wanted out, thats it.

So, explain to me now, how this makes me unethical , or immoral? I saw as massive loss coming and wanted to cash out. Investors do it every day.

Nice try. Trust me , you WONT outwit me, many have tried and all failed.

btw since you like reading past posts here is one of yours unedited : (YOUR WORDS TO SPOTS, UNCHANGED)


Pick a side man! I dont care which one. LMAO!

Anything else?

LOL

Can someone be kind enough to compile the 32bit and 64bit windows binaries and post a link?

Thanks

Yes, can someone compile an image file with the latest BFG miner and an option to go to 350mhz. PLEASE!!
