So they just more than doubled their previous 100mh/s on the same model, seems legit.

They did with their SHA Asics too and delivered.

If theyre anything like theyre Neptune on delivery then we are all screwed. And they just upped it again so we'll see how much of it is real and how much is bullshit.

Good luck ROI'ing since the majority of Scrypt coins (other than maybe Catcoin) have accelerated retarget schedules. Most Scrypt chains will adjust for the additional hash power almost immediately and you'll be competing against KnC's own Scrypt mining farm.

That's why they increased the hash so more ppl would buy them. Now they added more customers and more money to start their farm. By the time we get the titans ROI will be so high you will need to buy their next gen miner (which they have already started mining with) just to catch up. Never ending cat and mouse game..we always lose KNC makes money off our "loans".

So.. Vertcoin and its clones will have value up!

Based on the current known specs of 28nm technology any array of chips that pumps out a combined total of 300 mhs of scrypt is going to be using right at 6000 watts at 100% efficiency, which again is never going to happen.
This is an interesting conjecture. Can you explain your reasoning in more detail ?

This is an interesting conjecture. Can you explain your reasoning in more detail ? I, too, am really curious as to how you could back up your estimate. Are you assuming there is a minimal amount of transistors you have to use and a minimal amount of reads/writes on a on-chip memory? Overall energy consumption is affected by many factors. Like layout of the board. for example in an ASIC, you can have memory very close to a processor significantly lowering wattage.

One company is going to try run a modular type design with one power board that feeds a calculation board for better efficiency, also making it upgradeable being it modular.

As i posted in another thread - assuming that each titan does 250mhs @ 10k and a Gridseed (minimum) 350khs minimum - each Gridseed would have to drop to $14-16 to match that type of khs/cost ratio. I highly doubt they can be sold at that amount for profit.
Glad i stuck to my GPUs. When Gridseeds are worthless, my GPUs won't be.
Hopefully more people will adapt to asic-resistant coins til then. Scrypt is almost dead for us GPU-miners.

I am debating on dumping my GPUs but if x11 picks up, I might just cruise craigslist looking for deals from miners dumping hardware. Aim that firepower at x11 and continue mining until x11 gets ASICS.
I refuse to enter the Scrypt ASIC arms race, the only winners are the hardware makers and the resellers.

and litecoin bagholders who are looking to offload when it kicks off for network security

Minimum 300/MH/s of performance from a 28nm chip(Not 250) I'm thinking about getting some. I'm crowdfund raising for one right now. How it works is everyone will get payouts based on buy-in ownership. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=553599
