Topic: ANN: BITMAIN has Tested Its 28nm Bitcoin Mining Chip BM1382 - page 119. (Read 143992 times)
If there is an upgrade kit for S1 and S2 that would be amazing
Hopefully as Bitmain says the price will be within a ROI market.
Hopefully we will get some overclock specs soon as well - Anyone worked out what the possible max running speed could be for all chips ?
But pretty cool - S2 Upgrades to follow as well for July ? should be up to like 2Th/s ?
Thanks

Let's see...504MH / 15.75 MH per chip = 32 chip...like 16 chips per blade...
Interesting...they could go to 1T without problems...IMHO...
I think we can all agree..
Of course, the sale pricing is a big concern. eBay is about to be flooded with S1's. I can only speculate that the price of two of these units will be slightly more than the price of an S2. Who knows? We may be very pleasantly surprised.
Either way BITMAIN, your timing couldn't have been better.

RX-Box from Rockminer is selling for $599 right now...460MH...
S3 price should be close to this...I guess...
Will it be possible to upgrade existing S1s?
This may be a huge marketing opportunity, if the new blades are compatible with existing controller/chassis.

Just waiting for the collective orgasms to erupt... 
You called it ^_^ anyways cool stuff I will be watching the progress here
Looking forward to seeing more chips online
Edit: Ah noticed I was one of two that didn't put a mindblown pic joins the crowd
Still waiting for resolution on damaged & underperfoming S2 miners.
Still waiting to hear more about upgrade blades and what to do with old blades.
shall we brush all that under the rug and just focus on more sales asap??

I think you'll see the upgrades being announced shortly after these hit the market.

Nice.... 
Congratulations to bitmain on producing another high-class miner!
Very big news congratulations. Great power consumption.

Time to max out those outlets, I suppose.
I love the dual fans. Great news for home miners that need a relatively quiet operation.

E2A - after well over 100 confusing and often repetitive emails, Bitmain has very generously offered to send a replacement board, a replacement power board as well as some S2/S2 Upgrade exclusive compensation.
Sadly the S2 i bought with the compensation has arrived overheating with the fans cutting out at high RPM and the rig reaches 73-74C...
Replacement power board goes into post 'today' so hopefully that will solve the overheating issue.
i wonder how many different people answer the emails sent as Bitmain must be swamped with support requests etc, sometimes it seems as though the already answered questions get asked again & again.

Reserved for Q&A and Updates
1. Will there be upgrade parts for S1 and S2?
Yes, there will be. But we still need to solve some production/testing problem before we finalize the plan and public it.
2. Will S3 be supporting P2pool?
Yes.
Updates:
1. The sales opening announcement and the final specs of S3: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.7597300
2. The First Batch of AntMiner S3 runs out of stock. we are ready to start to sell the Second Batch of S3 at 22:00 pm on July 1st (UTM + 8 ), and drop the sales price to 0.74 BTC each with international shipping. The Second Batch is estimated to be delivered about 2-4 days after shipping of the First Batch of S3 for 0.75 BTC each, but still no later than July 20th.
3. The Third Batch of S3 sales price is dropped to 0.725 BTC each with international shipping, which will open sales at 22:00 pm on July 4th (UTM + 8 ). The Third Batch is most likely to be shipped before July 20th, but no more than one or two days delay may happen.
