So I have no possible way of securing the fan/heatsink to the board now?


If I had this problem I'd do the following:

1) somewhere on here someone posted how to get extra long cable leads for the extra units and ebay link

2) I run my Jupiter with the cover off...so do the same but simply flip the cover match the screw holes and mount it upside down (sides pointing up) get the correct mounting plugs like are on your orig mining units (or equiv) and with extra long leads on there.....mount the two extras on top..have some 5" fans on the side to blow on the units ..viola

3) or I'd get some pexiglass stuff at a hobby shop and hack together some kind unit with plastic that looks like the MARS Prototype with a big ass Fan at the end

anyway a couple guys HAVE CLAIMED to have done this (one guy had a flakey units on two knc boxes so was playing mix /match and tried 6 on the one says it worked...in this thread someplace)

so anyway if you got the units give it a shot...even if not official if nothing else I'm sure you can 'easily I mean easily' get your $$$ back selling them anyway

but imho if 2 showed up on my door I'd do the above (on the other hand on my unit I'd have to get advice on how to add 2 ports to make 6)

I don't really have interest in ripping off the community.  But I am only interested in selling to miners...not people who will resell right away.  **bobsag3, cough cough**  Wink

If I do sell, I would like as many BTC back as I paid.  So I guess that is a markup given the current spot...but not disastrous.
I resent that statement Tongue

Hindsight is 20/20.  I regret selling so many BFL's to raise funds for Nov.  I had no idea KnC was going to sell so many October units and take the diff as high as they did.  I've just made one mistake after another.  It's kinda depressing.

Should've just burned the BFL's, taken the Day 2 Jups and got out.  There is no self-control by the ASIC developers & resellers.  Everybody is out for blood squeezing everyone's nuts looking to see who they can take advantage of.  Only allowing payment in BTC, not updating news bits with proper info, not having a proper advanced RMA process, and not shipping when people say they will is icing on the cake.

At least KnC isn't as bad as BFL, Avalon, or ASICMiner.  I just wish companies were more open about how much they plan to ship.  That's the only thing I can give HashFast & CoinTerra credit for.
