For anyone finding it hard to believe a Jupiter running 6 cards. That is with 0.99, but the HW errors seem high, so will probably revert back to 0.98.1 Beta which was under 1%

[The Avenger]

only took 6 days through RMA.

I take it this is a joke? 6 days, about 3BTC, about $1200? You don't care you lost $1200 because some company wilfully shipped you shitty, faulty, untested goods?

[ElGabo]

For anyone finding it hard to believe a Jupiter running 6 cards:

Thanks Cyper!

I've ordered 2 upgrade modules for the jupiter just to try it.

Good news...

[btc_uzr]

..regarding the RMA emails...I'm paralyzed....never would have expected this answer

and why it's one time 450, then 400 which is the border line for RMA??
leaves somehow a bad taste in mouth when thinking of the fact that more upgrade boards were sold than offered

400 still good?!....and then you see that some reach numbers close to 600..


For the always knc defending fanboys:
How about a customer pays KnC less than some others and tells them the following:
"Count yourself lucky that some paid more than me, as long as it's over $4000 - nevertheless the price is advertised >$5000- you have no right to ask for more, but where I prefer to get my unit shipped to."

engineering is top and customer handling a flop
really makes me thinking twice about my next KnC order as it's another gamble on top of the mining gamble

Thanks Cyper!

Good news...

The speed is still slowly increasing and I expect around 840GH/s which is 140GH/s per module.

Btw did you buy longer cables as you will need them to connect the 2 additional modules.

I use this one and it has been working with every firmware after 0.94: https://www.dropbox.com/s/pmxz0qvz5ne24oy/bertmod_zpmfix_knc_0_96.bin

Yes, the 0.96 works and has the current:

It was only a single board. The rest of the Jupiter was busily hashing away during that time. So at worst I lost around 100Gh/s for 6 days....not terrible.  The new board hashes at around 138GH/s.
This is all I will say on the matter, something was broken and they fixed it reasonably.

I bought 6 metres of cables and a lot of connectors. Cables will be custom made.

I'm trying not to forget something.

[RoadStress]

@KNC or @Bitcoinorama: Does this delay also apply to the upgrade modules? Will the shipping of the upgrade modules begin with, before or after shipping of regular november orders?

Guy's I'll be honest and say. If you have a November batch and want to take full advantage, I'd be sourcing 1200w PSUs.

I'd still avoid the Cosair HX Series. You'd prob be fine with a solid 1000w+.

We've been testing on the V850s still, but as I alluded to before they've been pushing these around and over 1000w and the PSUs are solid and have been taking the abuse, but if I were you with future firmware revisions and from what I've seen: 1200w Gold rated PSUs for November batch orders FTW please!

Hey Bitcoinorama will there be a way to adjust the speed of the whole miner? 650GH/s at ~1000W is ok now(based that you recommended 1200W PSU i'm thinking that a Jupiter will draw 900-1000W), but in 3-6 months maybe i would like to go back to 550GH/s at ~600-700W. The additional hashrate is very very welcomed, but the power increase seems to be around their originally stated 1.6J/GH.

Anyway, retard Avenger is still complaining even if no ASIC company provided an increase of over 50% in hashrate in just one month. Great job KnC! I love you! Now just please don't open another batch till January/February at least

[Bogart]

Jupiter FW 0.99

Power at Wall Down from 748W to 746W

You're hitting 750w?  Bizarre, I'm @ 690w with 98.1

You probably have a more efficient power supply.

I had the idea of creating a list of all the concerns expressed by the community here and relay them to Sam in person when I go there Monday (if I even have the chance to meet him).
But I am not sure that he would actually care so much and would be probably a waste of time.
I wish I can be more excited for going to see them in person, but to be honest I don't feel it. What I feel is a sense of disappointment from all the things that were promised, advertised, expected, but did not materialize.

[The Avenger]

Avenger...  Die 0 was addressed with the 0.98.1 beta firmware, and most machines were fixed with it. Other than you, I don't think there are more than a handfull more out there..MAYBE.   So to call that the "Biggest issue" is Total Crap.
okay we have...
1. Avenger  (Assuming he really has a machine)

sorry to interrupt, but Avenger send me pm this afternoon saying thanks for the quota-patch I wrote
he had further questions regarding the quota feature of cgminer and how to apply it, would not make sense I guess in case he would not have a device and the patch applied on his web-interface

thanks...  I'm pretty sure he has one anyway, just tryin to get the chap to "let go the hate", and take advantage of his offer, this is getting silly.

Fickle much Phoenix1969?

If bumcoinobama says anything, you seem to swallow it whole. I'm sure I posted a picture of something similar here the other day?  

P.S.

I'm EXTREMELY HAPPY KNC made millions from our preorders, because I have a vested interest into seeing them succeed!  

Let's see. If you had some miners hashing, which you do, you would actually have a vested interest in knc going bust, as it means your miner would earn more BTC if kfc didn't ship any more hashing power.

So what is your vested interest? You are a major cheerleader, I guess you are one of those guys who gets preferential treatment from knc. Yeah. I find it really hard to take you seriously when you so often refer to yourself in the third person.

AAAWwwww..Cmon' O'rama....
You know, that I know, that you know I know that you know, that Ewok spends countless hours tweaking for perfection... So when a firmware comes out talking about improvements....  Ewok will waste no time tryin'!!!

Ewik now has 3 Saturns up & hashing on eligius...
the 3 hr avg will take..well...3 hrs

etc

[RoadStress]

But it's not accurate to call them criminals if you "only" get a 450Gh machine when you paid for 400Gh one.

He is a retard. Just ignore him

[sbfree]

Guys, due to the fact we underestimated the demand and oversold, we had to wait for the rest to be produced at the factory. Currently as you can see, they are being packed with all the auxiliary parts, then labelled.

As they sold out and were paid for in seconds, and there isn't any logical order of sale, we sat down and had a chat as how to best approach this, and to be fair to everybody that ordered within those 7 minutes, they are all being shipped at the same time on Monday.

You underestimated that 200 upgrade modules would sell in the same day? Really?

I'd always prefer that you not say you will ship THIS week if you aren't going to ship until NEXT week.

Pay on the 12th, Ship on the 18th, Arrive on the 23rd if LUCKY

Time is money

Joe, and others, being that this is a relatively new industry, every move KNC makes is literally unprecedented.....but in my opinion, not without reason. I have mentioned before that maybe the "Powers that be" or "Asic Gods" in this new industry (think back to picture of sam, yifu, josh hugging and smiling etc)do have a plan. I believe the hash rate and the difficulty are somewhat manipulated (and maybe even in our favor) by the timing/delivery of mining equipment from these asic manufacturers.....or maybe I am just a conspiracy theorist?
