Just asking, if 500GH/s requires 390W only, then CX750 can handle the OC'ed S3?
I have right now 2 S1´s overclocked to 200 GH/s and 2 CX750M also.
And i think that they consume 420 W each one, so if S3 requires just 390 W.... would be great if we can overclock them, we have still 360 W left.
I would like to know how much will be that Kit for upgrading S1 to S3... and more important.... will soldering be necessary?
S1 upgrade kit will only be available after 1 or 2 months as per the guy visited BitMainTech booth.
The price will depend on the exchange rate of
BTC that time and the difficulty.
Since its BitMainTech we can hope it will be a fair upgrade.
Regarding Upgrade Method: Most probably it will be plug and play. They will maximum avoid such soldering things.
As per their statement the upgrade hit will be the 2 pcb boards. They said the new heat sink is compatible with S1.
So, I assume they will be supplying heat sink along with the upgrade boards.
Thus the upgrade will happen when we remove old blades and screw up the new blade, plug the cables to controller, done.
All are assumption, there may be very different from reality.
