Power might be the reason for me to not purchase. At least for my apartment, I can't use other power hungry devices when the miner is on --- the circuit break will be triggered
Have a service host it for you... perhaps KNC or AnotherHost. I would not mind hosting it with KNC but I'm not sure whether they want to do that still otherwise the hosting option would be available during purchase. |

The Uranus? I for one would gladly plunge my BTC into a KnC Uranus |

Have a service host it for you... perhaps KNC or AnotherHost. Or me! (I have ~6 on order already) Yes, sorry! Add MinerSource.net to that list. Bobsag3, I may be contacting you in a few months.  No problem. Im having a 400A 240V pannel installed just for the 2kw+ miners that seem to be coming out. |

This isn't my first time in this thread, but I couldn't resist. I don't have anything against KnC, and would like a 750 GH/s product so I wouldn't have to worry about breaker problems in my house.

I would too. I don't mind the total hashing power but I'd like it distributed among many mining units so I can litter the miners various places. |

About Neptune numbers, 3THash for $16k, by early 2014..
3THash takes up to 3kWh power now, means, $2628 for electricity a year @ $0.10.
30% efficiency would be, $876 savings a year on KNC 20nm machines.
$1752 at $0.20, and
$2628 for $0.30 a kWh power.
For 6THash,
CoinTerra - 3x2THash = $18k
KNC 20nm - 2x3THash = $32k
That's $14k extra, for ~$1760 savings a year, or $3520 for two years, at $0.10.
At $0.20 kWh, $3520 and $7040.
At $0.30 kWh, $5280 and $10.5K.
Worth it? Correct me, if I'm wrong.

Will most probably use it too for 2x Neptunes tomorrow if still available  Is it 300GH/s or 1/10th of a Neptune? |

I'm also wondering, how they're doing a 20nm ASICs?! Intel is doing 22nm CPUs (haswell) now, and bitfury is doing better (efficient) 55nm ASICs that KNC's 28nm ASICs.
@KNC, Some explanations please..

TSMC is producing 20nm right now for Q1/Q2 2014, although I think the company only expects a few mobile chips out for Q1... http://www.extremetech.com/computing/171362-qualcomm-announces-the-snapdragon-805-an-arm-chip-ready-for-a-4k-worldQualcomm is sampling its new ARM chip for partners right now, and expects consumer devices to arrive in the first half of 2014. After conquering a new generation of smartphones and tablets, Qualcomm sees the Snapdragon 805 as a natural choice to power Ultra HD 4K TVs. TSMC has previously said that its 20nm node will be ready some time in the first quarter of 2014, but we remain pretty skeptical. Realistically, we won’t see commercial quantities of the Snapdragon 805 until TSMC has all of its 20nm wrinkles ironed out. More realistically I would guess Q2. |

I like their word play.. "early 2014" may be "2014, June 30th" + shipping time + queue position + unknown delays.. it'd be fun, as I've postponed all my mining investments to 2014-Q2, and "no more preorders"..  |

How many people received tracking #'s or actual units from the November Jupiter batch this week? KnC said they shipped 100 Jupiters a day ago (plus an additional who knows how many today); they were hoping to get them all shipped out this week.

Bargain... And who said there is a 10 limit per customer? Hmm. Did your crazy order actually go through? If so congratulations you now need your own personal power station/nuclear reactor to power them  |
