Apologies for the late reply.
That is correct, all cables are rated 80 degrees Celsius for testing. You can withstand temparature up to 80 degrees Celsius with any issues.

Kind regards,

Michiel Bos

Thats handy to know, one would assume that most of the other big desktop brands Corsair, Antec, Seasonic etc would be roughly the same

Most probably yes, but I would not advise anyone to run their cables at above 50C.
Mine were reaching 48 during the day, so I just installed a fan to blow onto them which lowered the temp to 38C.

Yeah I swapped out my Corsair rm-850 with an Antec 1300w hcp 94% platinum on my oct jup when my nov jup arrived I bought one for each miner. Cables on both miners are cold to the touch and the oct jup power usage dropped by 30 watts compared to rm-850.

The Antec's also have oc link so you can link 2 psu's together for 2600w which still probably wouldnt be enough for a neptune

Anyone have any idea whether KNC is going to offer anything for sale in the interim?

Before I invest in another platform for immediate delivery I'd like some kind of idea if anything is possible on the KNC side.

Its almost the 10th of January and time is a wastin'

50/ 50 - no one knows. was answered several times in the last 200+ pages. my guess is no additional sales. they are all in on neptune

I'm ready for another batch of Jupiters...

Bitmain?

I can't fathom how some of you are even managing to push the cables to their limit. I run GPUs which each pull more wattage chan the KNC power boards, and they're not getting that hot. Blow a fan across them or something?? My KNC unit's cables don't even get that hot. All my dies run without issue.

Are you guys far-overclocking them or something?

I'm ready to see news of Neptunes coming.

Give it 3-4 months, you'll get news.

Agreed. It's not impossible to think that Neptunes may start shipping in February. TSMC started high volume 20nm production in December, and Knc started work on the Neptune in October.

I hope to see any news coming ... regarding Jupiters and/or Neptune... !  For me it's the same !

[btcspender]

I just hope we get any announcement either way I have coin waiting for jupiter orders and if they announce no jups some coin will go on one or two more neptunes and some spread across other companies. I just want to hear anything from them.

We would like to state that If any of our competitors continues to add large amounts of hashing power to the network during December, January or February. We will continue to release our devices as competitively priced as we can to protect our customers share of the network.

Thanks

Dear KNC

Neptunes or Jupiters ...I don't mind ....Take my handy bit coins now please ............For this  Network Protection Statement to have any credibility , You will need to send me a miner by the 10th of February .

Thanks

Why would you assume you pull more current with GPUs?
How much do you think you use?

I am in the minority of the market as a #1 Small Investor who wanted to re-invest, but unfortunately does not have the ability to host the latest KNC miners without moving or finding an outside hosting solution which stinks because KNC actually did deliver and really the rest of the mining companies are very risky compared to KNC miner in my opinion.

I really hope they release the Jupiters but I can also see them just focusing on the Neptune and attempting to release it earlier than expected, that would really keep groups #'s 2 & 3 as long term buyers.

A hosted solution is going to be pretty much inevitable within six months I reckon because either you'll want a second machine to keep up the earnings, or the next development increment will simply melt a residential property power circuit, so I figured I may as well bite the bullet and start looking around for hosting now. If we're sensible and community minded, people will band together and group buy a data centre and host themselves at cost. But because we're all solitary and selfish we won't, but hey - it'll just be part of the cost of doing Bitcoin business.

The team at - www.redstarmining.com - are looking into starting a data centre to host Neptunes in the Mid West United States.  Due to cheap electricity and no import VAT at 20% like all EU miners currently have to pay.  We've started this thread to see what kind of interest there is - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=383544.msg4125801#msg4125801

Careful Mat....  Fincen just mentioned hosting indirectly... "Money transmitters"   just a heads up...you might want to read their latest announcement.....and I don't mean just the headline....hehe

Neptunes are still for sale btw.... !

Yep I have Hopium on Jupiter  

[Ridicuss]

OK, Guys,

I have serious, horrible luck. I have (I know, not smart) cashed out all my BTC.  All coins I was keeping handy for  a re-release of jupiter is gone. Now that I cant pay BTC for one or two, my rotten luck says you guys who have coins ready will be able to buy.
Good luck.

If the timing of my coin sale helped you get a Jupiter (LOL), Please use my link if you dont have your own.

[Paladin69]

I'm beginning to think the Jupiter's aren't going to launch.  Every time I talk to KNC they make it sound like they still have no plans and they make it sound like the Neptune is coming first.

I think the amount of people wanting to cancel their Neptune's for more Jupiter's is quite high and they might be questioning themselves now.

People aren't stupid.  The difficulty is going to run away from everyone.  KNC is going to obliterate the diff once again like they did last year and people want to mine now rather than wait.

The world has more than one major economic block now and the deepnet is getting deeper too if RSM has to say goodbye to US shareholders.  As for the datacentre it's just that and not a farm or anything else.  Customers will pay for rackspace and nothing more.

Edit:  Worst case scenario for RSM is for the cooperative to end the public trading of shares which are currently done in Hong Kong.  As a private cooperative of individuals we can continue RSM's 90% reinvestment privately.

I have GPUs pulling 350-360watts (29-30amps). I wasn't under the impression that the KNC modules were pulling that. I could be mistaken.

ok all our questions could be answered by Bitcoinorama ! 

Drin ... Drin .... Bitcoinorama ... are you here ?

He is actually on now, but no posts from him for 3 days.

'Orama.....we see you!!   

when Bitcoinorama is not here from 2 days or more... usually means that something is going to happen...
