My mine Consist of a mix of 6 S3+'s 2 C1's and 2 S4's got 2 S5's showing up tomorrow believe me when I say I understand the power bill. Wife complains about all of the noise good thing she doesnt see the electric bill haha
And yes I am considering offloading the S3+'s they recently ROI but I want to see them profit before they go. The price is way down on these they are going on ebay for $100-$150 tops and considering I paid $450 for them well just hard to let them go at that price. they still bring in 505ghs at 400+watts each (overclocked ofcourse) BTW I never OC until the warranty is over
I got my S4's used from gawminers for $475 so that was a bargain and they will ROI quickly unfortunately I do not dare try to OC them as the stock power supply is already damn near at its max
My C1's go out of warranty next month and i run each one on its own 1300w evga G2 PSU's So i can OC them but from what i have heard theres not alot of advantage to OCing them especially when they already pull 800+ watts at 1.1ths
Cant wait to get these S5's tomorrow not a big fan of the case not having a top and still working out the details of how to heat exhaust them efficiently, a top venting case just doesnt configure well into my current racks. Nor am i big fan of the case period plastic and stuff ugh bad design period so I do like the water cooled concept but at those kit prices they seem a little to high.
I like my C1's and have had very little issues with them they are batch 2 I run my pumps-fans off of the PSU periph plugs instead of the boards, runninig of the boards is just crazy idea, dont know what genious at syscooling thought that up, then again i would say syscooling has a serious lack of geniuses
haha I run mine on these pumps

and well a water pump is a water pump it does not have to be fancy just needs to work without failing. Hell you could use a washdown pump for a boat if you wanted
just comes down to watts used. I seen some cool systems on youtube people cooling multiple C1's with all kinds of methods car radiators and such one guy even used geo thermal now that was inventive.
I myself would love to chuck all these miners in a 3m novek immersion tank that stuff is so expensive though.
