Hii,
According to your photo, that indicat might be over current issue, so does knc offer any solution?
Some how, the single socket design could limited over clock behavior, so when the time Tity ship to my place I won't oc it.

Yes, it's an over current issue alright! Over twice the current the socket is designed for was an over current issue from day one.
As for overclocking; there is no overclocking with Neptune. Everything from the power connection to the VRM's to the chips are already running at or above their maximum spec. The web interface allows users to change from 475Mhz to 500Mhz but this would not make enough difference speed wise to warrant the risk of changing stock settings.
2. As shown all three of the positive pins burnt, not just two, as it would if one of them wasn't seated properly
It just takes one to burn out and the remaining two will burn out pretty quickly after that as they take on the additional current from the first burnt out pin. The one making the poor contact will eventually burn if there was some contact at all.In that situation you can usually see what happened; if there were two pins making good contact and one making poor contact it would be usual for the failing pin to be a lot more blackened / melted than the other two which burn out quickly afterwards. If there were two pins making contact and one with none then we would likely see two very blackened and melted and one intact? However it's neither of these cases; it had been running for a good while before it melted and all three pins melted consistently to each other.

...and now for lots of nice high res photos:
Since KnC didnt bother to respond to me, let alone RMA, last time this happened; here's some warranty voiding nudes:
(nice to see they wrote "2014 KnCMiner" right alongside the socket so there is no confusion)
