This is totally stupid.  They haven't even missed their shipping date yet.  The other guys had 6 months past the shipping date before a lawsuit was filed.  So far, KnC hasn't even broke their promise.  They still give out refunds left and right.  Why are you going to sue them.  About 5 guys are being dumbasses and doing a ton of screaming.  Idiots.

They never shipped working Super Jupiters to their customers, just boxes of broken parts. That is a MISSED deadline that they set themselves. They only give out refunds after being begged repeatedly, have you even been reading this thread?

By all means go and order another Neptune if you really believe what you wrote, they are super trustworthy and never lie about anything right?

I'm beginning to wonder if some of the FrankenJup owners haven't given up too quickly trying to get their Jups running. Some of the orders were indeed total shit and unusable. But I've managed to get another 6 boards running from the second batch for a total of 24 boards and 3.7THs*. I expect to easily get another 6 boards running for another ~900GHs. Maybe more if I bought another controller, which I won't. I possess not special technical prowess either. So if I can do it, anyone can... if it's at all possible.

Of course I was lucky to be in the first 'assembled' batch too and received an extra 18 boards to work with. So there's that, lol.

I can't say I'm completely dissatisfied although the design of the FJ's are crap. I'm hashing now with more THs than I originally paid for. Although I did have to buy 2 extra Controller boards (at an exorbitant price), 2 additional PSUs and 12 i30s. Waiting for the IDC cables was the biggest headache. KNC should supply those with the Controller boards since they are rather uncommon and difficult to find.

If knew then what I know now, I would have certainly cancelled or never ordered from KNC in the first place. But I consider myself to be one of the lucky ones. I could have made many other choices that would have been much worse, such as preordering from HashFast, BitMine.ch, VMC, etc. or continued to wait for a Neptune. Maybe I'll be jealous if/when they are finally delivered. Maybe not.

On the dark-side... I'm still waiting for 2+ Monarchs that probably will never be delivered before BFL goes tits-up. Lol.



* underclocked... Otherwise I'd get very close to 1THs per 6 modules. But the FrankenJup @ stock clock runs too hot for my tastes. Also they seem to be much more efficient at lower clock speeds and since I'm maxing out my circuits, I need to watch this carefully. Plus it's so DAMN hot in my house despite the recent addition of supplemental A/C for my "server" room (spare bedroom). I have to keep the house A/C at 85 during the day so it doesn't run constantly.

1.95t/h, I have another one like this with one 6 boards going, waiting on other beaglebone, since knc has been fucking me around for a week waiting to rma it, I said fuck it yesterday and ordered a beaglebone black for it, since the bottom part works.

Nice way to hold those radiators down.

any idea on if there is a full video or what the models name is?

Looks great! Are those the standard heatsinks? I haven't actually taken mine out of their ovens... er, I mean cases so I haven't had a good look. The heatsinks sure are skinny compared to i30s. But I can't say the i30s run much cooler than the stock HSFs even though I have my second batch units bolted down, outside of their cases and with the correct amount of TIM properly applied. These things just run super hot I guess.

I bought 12 of these, alittle wider then the supplied heatsinks, not quite as wide as board but close.

...came with alittle bit of thermal paste too

Why I'm thinking Nipy will come with 10th/s all day, this let me couldn't get sleep, with 20nm chip, at least 30% potential enhancement, and about 20% power reduce, at higher integrated circuit cluster, am I day dreaming~  

Tity = 400mh/s, so Nipy at least 8tg/s at same 28nm scale, and Nipy is in 20nm, so at least 9.6th/s, am I dreaming~

[faetos]

you are certainly dreaming if you ever expect to get a piece of equipment from them. cloud at 3T is all you're going to get.

I don't think you're dreaming. I think you're just high. Can I have some of what you're smoking, please?

Even if KNC could get it to 10THs, there'd be virtually no way for you to supply enough power to it even if they got power consumption down to 0.5w/GHs (which they won't) that would be 5,000 watts. Going from 28nm to 20nm isn't enough of a die shrink to increase that much hashing power AND reduce power consumption. Impossible.

Btw, what does "8tg/s" mean? That is a unit of measurement I've never seen before?

Hi, 8th/s is a trade off value from scrypt mining, sha256 20 gh/s = scrypt 1mh/s.

I got a refund..anything over 6 months (bfl) they will refund i guess 600gh or 300gh ..the rubber will meet the road if they don't get something out before their black friday sale.if that goes over 6 months i'd expect if they had to refund those they'd go belly up

as to the frankenjupiters....they don't work with oct knc jupiters or i'd try to snag one for fun and giggles even if i only just split the hash with you oh well

of course i have a titan on order so am likely screwed if this is the New 'box' type 28mm format as was used with the frankenjupiters

Wow! This is the first time I've ever seen this thread on page 2 and no new posts today (until now).

So here's my FrankenJup update for today. The 7th and 8th 'bonus' modules are hashing continuously now for around 24 hours. I've since had some crazy electrical things happening. I have 6 modules and an S2 connected to a Tripplite PDU that's connected to a dryer circuit. Twice I tripped another circuit in a completely different part of the house that isn't loaded with anything other than a couple of PCs. While resetting the breaker, I noticed my digital electric meter was flashing and displaying what I assume is an error code. Everything is working fine now. Has anyone experienced anything like that?

Now I'm off to Lowes to pickup an Evap Cooler. The additional FJ modules have made my server room temp soar to ~90f. I already have a Tripplite portable A/C unit in the room in addition to central air. The rest of the house is becoming unbearable though so I need even more cooling if I'm going to survive the summer.  AND I still have to get the 9th and 10th FJ modules running today. It looks like I may need to think about selling my S1s and Bitfury rigs if the electrical anomalies continue.

I also hope they don't switch Plan B off for a week after they ship your Neppy, as it takes about a week to receive a unit what with shipping time plus customs delays.

I don't mean to rain on anyone's parade but I thought Sam said it's either or, Plan B or wait, did he change it?

Found what I had read: http://www.coindesk.com/kncminer-offers-plan-b-case-neptune-miner-delivery-delay/

“Plan B is simple,” Sam Cole, one of KnCMiner’s co-founders, told CoinDesk: “If we face a delay or any type, we will give each person a choice.”

This is a plan that the company is putting in place for paying customers of its latest model, the 3TH/s Neptune miner.

The options are as follows:

1. Continue to wait.

2. Take a USD refund.

3. Convert to 3TH of hosting performance for a period (still to be worked out, but is likely to be around 6 months).

This is where it said a choice...
