Ignored. Asshat who thinks he's a know-it-all. Joins such illustrious members on that ignore list as Kuroth, Vigil, Eve, bbxx, and atomichaos....

+1

ignored, asshat!

w2go LOL.

I didn't even say a word against KNC and these silly fanboys still start their play.
I should've listened to the guys who said BCT is these days filled with these kind of people, people who bring no value to the community.

FWIW, I think KNC will deliver but it'll be late.

Anduck,

The reaction you're receiving here is due to your question about anyone seeing a "working chip". Had you spent a few minutes reading KnC's website or this thread, you'd know that there will not be a working chip shown until they're ready to ship the finalized unit to customers (~12 days from now). Furthermore, you're probably the 20th person to ask that question in recent history. I think the participants of this thread are simply tired of the lack of effort put into research.

To make things worse, people like to use the "working chips" question as a way to troll everyone else. You may not have intended to act like a troll, but that's how others will perceive you.

They will need to have atleast few chips to test the chip itself. They must get a lot data from the actual chip - how can they ship a product to end-user that includes a chip that has only been simulated?
If they don't have chips to test yet, they will be late. Just like Bitfurys chip differed from the simulations kinda lot. Same with BFL. How would it be different with KNC? Really?

We of course don't know. However, their recent announcement that the chips do indeed hash faster than advertised would tend to indicate that they had sample chips to work with.

Also, both BFL and Bitfury (regardless of their morals, which seem to be on opposite poles) are essentially amateurs, whereas the KnC/OrSOC team are ASIC engineers. The only thing new to them on this, aside from the venture itself, is the Application that is Specific to the Integrated Circuit. Seasoned professionals generally get better results for the effort involved than amateurs. No offense intended toward Bitfury, as that is one TALENTED amateur.
