I bought a KnC Neptune Cube 670 GH/s and I would buy more but, I can’t find a controller or psu.

Is there anywhere else besides ebay that sells the controller boards? or someone that is selling them?

Second, is it possible to run the controller os on a raspberry pi instead of a controller board?

I want to get a small farm going to mine some of the newer coins with a lower hash difficulty like Myriad.

Hi!

First, you would need the controller: The FPGA on it handles the distribution of the work to the cubes, and a Pi can’t do it.

As to selling one, I have a few spares here I would sell, will PM you with details.

Speaking of controllers, I am in need of one. I haven’t seen any pop up on ebay lately. If anyone has a spare to sell, I would be very appreciative.

Hi, i know its been a long time since anyone has asked for KnC Titan stuff but do you still sell any KnC Titan controllers? or repair the fpga on it? i recently burned mine and i wanna get a new one but cant find any. Thanks

Hi there!

Darn, haven’t checking in here in awhile. That said, yes I still have a few controllers and have actually fired up some of my cubes again. What would be a reasonable price for one to you? An LTC?

Today…I fired up some 3 cubes of titans after re-paste…turned my back for like 30 seconds on power-up and one of the flat ribbons smoked and actually had a very small flame going in the middle…never saw that before…guess I need to dig up the instructions I keep losing on how to flash an SD with KNC 2.02…I find it…I lose it…rinse/wash/repeat…anyway…the Titans in storage for years and just like when I used to mine them in my basement and never made ‘direct eye contact’ less they ‘brick themselves’ …they were the most ‘suicidal’ ASICs I’d ever seen…seems they are a bit ‘miffed’ on the whole ‘years ago’ storage in the attic and now when fired up are going to actively try to kill me… :slight_smile:
