Exactly! ^^^ Imagine all the misery this is causing not just for chip buyers but for  BKKcoins, burnins, terrahash and the rest. Interesting times ahead. I foresee a spike in KNCminers sales as well.

Maybe, but this is a real chance for KNC to emerge as one of the winners, I just hope they don't let this opportunity go to waste.

Hey..O'rama.. Do you remember offhand if we will be able to use a standard size cpu watercooler? I think I remember it mentioned in the openday rept?

Should have been "Next estimated difficulty" I guess.

No, next estimated is 48,739,191 in 4.9 days. 

I just used skype to initiate a conference call between myself, my mate in Toowoomba, and called KNC, and to my surprise, Andreas Kennmar answered the tele!
We didn't keep him on the tele for long, but we asked a few relevant Q's I'll share
The first Q was my asking him about the possibility of watercooling the miners. The short explanation is no, they won't be designed for it, but is slated for gen2
Are we on track with delivery?...  Yes, we're in front.
Power supplies final specs?  Not as of yet, but there will be a new spec announcement soon with recommendations.
 

Man, KNC should give the info here directly but thanks for the update!

... for the minute or two it takes everyone to switch to backup pools

The 75% is the actual change over the last 30 days. I don't think it is calculated by future hashpower, as that would be one hard calculation to make.

A more accurate number to fill in there might be the 90 day divided by 3 (which is 90% per month!) or the 60 day divided by 2.

Watercoolers were ditched as datacentres weren't down with liquid, which is why it's odd Hashfast have taken that route. I can only assume they haven't contacted any datacentres about their products.

KnC did state they may offer a water cooled option for home users, but to get this lot out the door fast and as promised they will be with heatsinks initially...
