I have NEVER paid a penny for a faulty item to be replaced or repaired, this is called a warranty and is the whole fucking point of one. To keep the customer happy because he has peace of mind that his product will always be available during the warranty period, I have never even paid postage. When it breaks under warranty that is THE VENDORS/ MANUFACTURERS fault and their responsibility to sort out free of  charge.

KnC sent me UPS express shipping label to RMA 2 of my board a few weeks back and I received 100% working ASIC board in 3 business days 5,481 miles (8769 km) away (shipped Friday, received Wednesday).  So I am not really sure why you are all flustering over nothing?  You really have nothing better to do then to troll here about an imaginary problem that doesn't exist?

Exactly. Some would rather just cry, whine & moan than get off their duff to actually do something about it... but it's their choice... I say..... let them whine if their too lazy to have their Pick axe sharpened... They'll just mine less, and therefore get less....  which is exactly the price of laziness.

It's 3:39 AM in Hawaii right now. Are you such a sad git you sit in front of a computer day and night pressing F5 on this page? Do you even have a job, do you actually do anything? And you are describing other people as lazy. Maybe you should get a life and stop taking every opportunity to take pot-shots at people. Get away from your computer, maybe go out into the world you lame-o and do something with your life, rather than keyboard-jockeying 24-7?

Actually, I'm an insomniac, and I'm up trading on the exchanges, taking advantage of the price drop...did great!....thanks for asking!   In- between trades, thought I'd get a peek in here ... glad I did. You are enough to wake me back up at 350am with a chuckle watching you utter the same old rhetoric over & over somehow thinking it's gonna help...thx!

maybe burn some incense & click your heels together while patting your head & rubbing a cats belly....?  Works every time...  
or you you could try the new popular fad of just posting how crappy KNC equipment & service is when it's the best available in the world....
but that doesn't seem to help much....

You are a funny guy. It seems like all your dicking about tweaking destroyed some boards on your first miners. If you were a regular customer, you'd be sitting looking at a bunch of expensive, dead hardware. What would the man of action do then?

But as you get special treatment, you get free boards to replace the ones you destroyed with your own stupidity. I bet you didn't even have to return the boards you destroyed, buttyrammer just mailed you the new ones. So that was a lot of action eh?

And the fact it took you 24 hours to hook your first saturn up to the internet still makes me laugh I doth my hat to your ongoing genius and value every comment you make.

ok will try that cat belly thing

anything else?

[xyzzy099]

Its already been said that Bertmod doesn't work with 0.99-E properly

Where is that said, just wondering. I don't see any issues or variation...

The only issue I've read/seen is that it removes the "advanced" tab. You can still get to the page though by just typing in the address...

Edit...NVM, that's for the 0.99-tune for the October miners.

The 'advanced' tab disappears when you go to the 'status'  tab, but if you then click on other tabs, it will reappear.

hahaha... way to go!   Grasping at straws now I see...   attempting to twist & lie things to your satisfaction...    your hipocricy is really shining brightly now....  You are trying to drag O'rama in now too....hahahaha..... when he had absolutely nothing to do with any of it....assumptions like that blurted out in rage just solidify your willingness to suffer at your own expense....  have fun with it...

Normally I don't step in the middle of bickering on the forum, but the bolded line struck me as that describes me in a nutshell as well.  Wish I had my trading specs on for the massive drop, but an overall 25% increase in my holdings isn't too shabby either.  It's good seeing there are other folks here who maximize their investment with clever/lucky trading, too.

It's an interesting question to ask a shill - do you sleep well at night?

Cust Serv are allowed to sleep. They are also allowed weekends off. The rest of us, not so lucky, although I suffer from insomnia.

Seems to be a common problem for knc shills. I guess you don't sleep well at night. Somewhere in your psyche you know it wrong and it keeps you awake.

Yep...  so wrong that we make money while you whine...    
I guess that's what separates do-ers from loafers
BTW....You obsessed with orama or something?  Weird you keep mentioning him...you must be in love....
So I'll ask this...  Did you really think O'rama had enough clout @ KNC to send out free equipment?

You said   "But as you get special treatment, you get free boards to replace the ones you destroyed with your own stupidity. I bet you didn't even have to return the boards you destroyed, buttyrammer just mailed you the new ones. So that was a lot of action eh?"

You are even dumber than I thought!

[The Avenger]

Haha, I love the way you see your as some amazing man of action  

I think you'll actually find you are a proven incompetant.

It's fairly obvious you burned up some boards dicking with tweaking them. Luckily you got free replacements. I suppose you consider that being a do-er do you?

Also, do you remember when you posted a guide to connecting a knc rig to wifi on october 5th:
http://forum.kncminer.com/forum/off-topic/miners-cafe/5068-wanna-wifi-your-knc-miner-here-s-how

Then on the 10th October you couldn't connect your rig to wifi?

omg, I'm dyin here....  Ive tried every ip address wireshark displays...its like reading greek or something...  I'm clueless...
the texas instruments ip doesnt work either
its running, nothing on the pool, and cant access the ip address... cause I cant find it

I think you got it right that time (see bold).

But good luck, you'll need it if you ordered multiple neptunes. Be sure to tweak them when they arrive in August 2014

Yep, indeed....  that was me...I learned putty, linux, ip sniffing, how to program CGminer all for the first time in about 18 hours....  enough to crack a bricked miner with the wrong ip protocol address and pool info, and found the hidden .conf file (Which nobody knew at the time) within 18 hours...   and now, 7 weeks later, have 5 neptunes on order....  how did you do again?.... you are so much better... I applaud you!   7 weeks now with boards you say are bad?  hahahahaa

It was a reply, read before you  climb on that high horse dickhead.
I'm not  even slightly flustered, I have no reason to be.
Since people here have trouble reading I'll repeat yet again, I have not had a single problem with my rig, run like clockwork from the day I got it.
What the fuck Pheonix was wittering on about pickaxes? No idea. Get some sleep lol.

Many people have had more trouble than needed with faulty gear and even contacting KNC about returns , I haven't but I consider myself lucky. Isn't it the point of this thread to discuss KNC , so that others can see ALL info they may find useful when thinking of spending thousands on a rig? A thread full of fanboys who will accept anything and make a reason up why it's awesome ...that's no use to anyone. Balance grasshopper.

And shut the fuck up calling people who have realistic views based on fact trolls. How old are you 12?

Yeah... KNC being the best is just "made up", and unrealistic......   right.
Westly just told you about his 3-day RMA....   where else does this happen so fast?
Now you are sounding like you are in denial, and need a 12-step asic program of some sort....
wow.
Is there a better choice..? Teach me O Masterful one....

After I added the additional side fan to the "hot as the surface of the sun" die now it is getting adequately cooled, but the fan is just standing there not secured in any way and I can't even put the lid on.

Whats it cooling there? Maybe its another duff Arctic Cooler on that one?

Avenger, you have been attacking everyone for weeks now. grow the fuck up and move on. Quit your bitching and go somewhere else if you are having so many issues with people on this forum. Grow some balls, quit being a little whiny bitch and move the fuck on.

Actually, any time I criticise knc, people attack me and I defend myself. That is how it goes. I have not attacked anyone at random. I have not said anything critical to anyone who hasn't had a go at me first.

I think you should tell people like Phoenix to grow some balls, rather than sit by while he has a go at each person who says anything even slightly critical of knc. Or that has an expericence different from his privileged experience, i.e. special treatment, free boards. Man, if I got free boards, I'd only say positive things too. But as it is, I got defective boards and nothing from knc to help me fix the issues without it costing me a fortune.

I don't need to be told what to do by some gimp who didn't even have the forethought to rehearse plugging in a device and finding the IP to see that he could do it. And then he acts like his idiot behaviour is somehow testiment to how brilliant and how clever he is  

I've been defending myself and it's all in response to people's digs at me. For example, I haven't attacked you or said anything to you asic-k and look at you taking shots at me and telling me what to do. Who do you think you are? If a mod tells me to tone down my language or something, I'll do it. But it's none of your business - or anyone else - to tell me what to do. I will share my expereince of knc and their hardware in the knc thread as long and as often as I like. So suck on that.

N.B. You want an example? I made this post the other day, which was making the point that knc have NEVER met any delivery deadlines etc.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=170332.msg3842346#msg3842346

I did not attack any forum member.

Two posts later, RickJamesBTC take a pot-shot at me. I set him straight.

A few posts after that, Phoenix takes a pot-shot and makes out I'm the only person who got defective hardware from knc. Which is of course a lie, so I set him straight.

About a page after that, Cyper takes a pot-shot saying I never ordered from knc. I called him an arsehole in response.

So you tell me - who started attacking who here? And who is defending themselves?

It is cooling the ASIC chip.

I changed the original heatsink/cooler as it was damaged during transit (the flat copper base was no longer flat), but even with the new heatsink temps still reach 86.

Hey Cypher... You can actually lower the cooling tower fan, the top of the plastic holder case will easily slide in between the fins, and it will cool dramatically better.....  the lower you put it, the better it will cool
