What could be better than getting up @ 3am to see how much you made during the night?
I love this shizzle!
Gox @ 227, XBT @ 212....
Just reached 50% return, day 19
But according to Croppo, they aren't worth a dime.....
I better just give up then....
Hahahahahaha
Congrats Phoenix! I am at USD break even in one more day! I've made 32 BTC with my jup. One more month(ish) to break even in BTC terms using the exponential difficulty estimates I have been using. Edit - Looks like I am USD break even today based on coinbase price. chrono, when did you receive your miner? October 4th chrono, I suppose your miner minted @530-550 since the beginning right? |

trying it also and the thing I notice is total lack of rejects initially, hashrate the same, and hardware error is lower so far, but too early to say for sure |

0.98.1 any time now... hoping for another "1.21 GigaWatts..." as Doc Brown would say...  I've had entirely too much coffee for it to be 430am...... oops...lol hey phoenix, it says that the 0.98.1 firmware will be used to address issues with die 0 issues - how do i know if i have that issue? if i dont have that issue then i shouldnt update to 0.98.1? reading some reports of the firmware beta users and some report improvements, although i dont know how to identify whether i need the update. |

Can I hate you now? :p Don't hate, just envy that he is 50% towards ROI. I wish I can say the same thing  I'm "getting there" got mine (sic) on the 16th Oct im about to hit the 27 btc mark with my jupiter, received the device oct 12. hm... i started with 6 jupiters also oct 12th, they have made 130 so far. but that is only 21.6 per machine. yours must be a class a ... sorry i forgot to factor in that i have a few avalon minis mining too, i cant figure out how to see what the jupiter mined alone since im all in the same account on btcguild. |

It would appear Hashfast and Cointerra are delayed (no ship date for Hashfast batch #1) and no tapeout date for Cointerra. Good news for KnCminer customers...

I believe if you have top hashrate, your not affected, so dont need to update they are targeting the rash of die0 dead boards. seems if you have a dead die other than die0 you won't get much help from this. Once they figure out a solution, then may make it more customizable for everyone's unique problems can they allow different FW to run on each module?? some branching? even the dies on each module need different settings if they aren't a 'golden board' |

sorry i forgot to factor in that i have a few avalon minis mining too, i cant figure out how to see what the jupiter mined alone since im all in the same account on btcguild.
You can create separate workers on the same account with BTC Guild or many of the big pools. Just click on Workers once you are logged in. |

chrono, when did you receive your miner? October 4th chrono, I suppose your miner minted @530-550 since the beginning right? Yes - Around 520 gh/s from the start. I got really lucky with a unit with around 4 bad cores. I wonder if those that had an easier transport had less hardware issues? I picked mine up in Sweden and flew home with it, and yes although it did go in the hold and suffer the horrors of Norway Air baggage handling and had all 4 fans fall off, it may have had less of a traumatic journey than via UPS/DHL van. Because mine has been happy on .96 hashing at 555Gh/s with zero bad cores according to:   |

It's the chips not the shipping. I have 3 hosted Jupiters; all with different hash speeds.

If you are having issues with the beta firmware (0.98.1) with the last two dies not turning on, the solution is to heat the chip up to at least 60C. Once you get up into the 60s, the last two dies will turn on. Several people have confirmed this. I turn off the heatsink fans, block the airflow from the front fans until the heat gets up to 60+, then I allow the front fans to run while leaving the heatsink fans turned off. If temps drop back below 60C, the dies will turn off.

Been about a month since the units took flight, feels a bit longer though.
I would be interested in KNC changing out the poll to ask how customers are feeling now. Most of the issues have been resolved, BTC price is great, and the other companies releasing 28nm chips appear to be having delays.
I think about the conversations where people say it would have been better to just purchase BTC rather than go with KNC. That sounds like a simple thing to do but I don't think I would have dropped over $20k on BTC when I placed the order. I felt protected in a way since
the price of the units were way under any other product and if they didn't deliver I could get a refund via paypal or credit card, or even KNC. I feel great about my KNC investment and think many are in the same position.
Do we think that KNC will be releasing another product in Q2 of next year? I don't see a newly designed chip getting release, maybe just a different physical configuration and ways to tighten up the Jupiter. Who knows though. Scrypt miner? We will see!

I think I actually do see a small improvement using 0.98.1 beta... even though all my dies were ok... one had 3 cores bad, and one had a single core out... lol I'm surprised to say the least... I thought I'd capped out I'll wait for the graph results to publish...  |
