This is the ONE.

Have 2 jupiters.

One used to hash at 534 with HW+R 3.2% and the other at 544 with HW+R 2.8%.

Now both of them stabled at 569 with HW+R at 1.3% and 1.5%.

Wattage is indeed higher from 472 and 482 to 537 and 539W.

I have 4 cores off on both machine.

Now I am waiting to see the 3 hours average increase on Eligius before congratulating KNC.

Mercury upgraded from .97 (138GH/s) to .98 after 2 hours (141GH/s). Temps are 1-2 degrees hotter but nothing alarming. Seems like they are moving in the right direction with this one for sure! Couldn't be more pleased with KNC.

Jupiter upgrade from .97 to .98.  

Watts at the wall increase from 597 at the wall to 674 at the wall.  

Performance increased from ~545 GH/s to ~565 GH/s.  

Hardware errors decreased from 4.7% to 1.2%.  

No real change in temps.

Great upgrade!

OMG my Jupiters are flying with 0.98, the ones that struggled to reach 500GH/s at the pool are now well above 550GH/s after aprox. 30 minutes

My ASIC run better with casing, but the temp is quite high with casing on.
Is 70C Safe for my ASIC?
Thank You

Probably - 105 is upper limit

Been doing some testing and still torn between 0.97 and 0.98.. need some advice.

All else aside.. I have a higher hashrate in 0.98, but WU is lower by about 250 compared to 0.97. I always believed the two to be directly correlated, but that doesn't appear to be the case here.

Which is more important in the long-term for overall earnings, hashrate or WU?

[sbfree]

.98  Have only been running it 10 Minutes, def. improvement compared to any other first 10 minutes, especially HW error rate.....temps look good.

Will report back in a few....Now I have a Saturn at its full potential. Thanks KNC and Ckolivas.....if this continues, ckolivas deserves a btc token of our appreciation.

[FiatKiller]

Please post any changes in WU, that is really all that matters because that is what we are paid for.

Hashrate at the pool.

WU previously included HW errors, so a drop doesn't automatically mean worse.

[sbfree]

wow, also just noticed that after around 115 Million submitted shares I can finally say I am official and found a BLOCK for the BTC community. I was starting to feel left out....1 less on the bucket list.

[CYPER]

Does anyone know if my miners have been collected/shipped today or yesterday?

[FiatKiller]

I ran enablecores on top of FM98 and seems to have fixed WU quite a bit.

Edit: Actually over 300 here and there!

[DPoS]

.98 is 'overclocking' a small amount which was expected

check the VRM amps and you will see 5-8% more amps out  (from 40 --> 43.2, etc)

if anyone wants to run bfgminer on .98 let us know if most cores are running over 750 now



also, 8 VRM boards go up only a little, so not clear how much hashing increase unless I run bfgminer and look at everything core by core

I feel like we're in a tug-of-war between firmware updates and rising difficulty and difficulty is winning.

My "bad" jupiter which has gone from fw 095 > 096 > 097 > 0961 > 097 > 095 ---> 098

has improved by 100GH/s at the pool.  The previous 24hr average was around 450-460GH

Currently pool reports hashing at 550GH.

I saw that on bitminter - Congrats man!

[ASIC-K]

stupid question, but i just switched to eligius, where can i see if i have solved a block or not? lol

Difficulty is always winning.   At any estimate I've seen the KNC October shipment basically made the KNC October shipment recipients in for a heap of pain, even when running under spec.
