Found a few more parts in my hardware stash.
2x Never used syscooling pumps
1x replacement reservoir topper for syscooling pump
1x Unused wiring harness (the PCIE one - Newest model syscooling made)

And still there
1x used syscooling radiator
1x tubing and locking metals

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1169446.new#new   

Feel free to toss offers.  Buyer pays shipping.  Yes you can buy one or all of remaining parts.

Found a few more parts now have:


1x used syscooling radiator
1x tubing and locking metals
1x unused wiring harness
2x never used syscooling pumps (have not even been plugged in by me)
1x extra reservoir for syscooling pump.

If you do  get the system cooling pump I suggest getting other as backup.

Guys, what's the (relatively) cheapest antminer product with the highest hashing rate?  I'm not looking to get rich overnight, I just want a slightly decent rig as my first  Grin

What is your electricity price?   We can tell you a lot better your options knowing this.

If we go cheapest it would be S1 but many would lose money running it.  So knowing electricity we can help pick which one is best.

Keep the water blocks for a watercooled S7  - if only that was possible! Smiley

I like the C1 -but turned into watercooled S5's 2.2+TH/s @ 1.1KW - just upgrade the radiator and pump would be good

I am sure the C1 blocks fit the S5 screwholes.

I do recommend upgrading pump and not using syscooling one.  It just has had a lot of failures.   So that is good idea.

You can use original radiator and put 3 more fans on it.  This makes it into a push/pull and does help cooling for pretty cheap to get the 3 fans to add.

If anyone needs it from parts one I have radiator and tubes left for sale will take fair offer - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1169446.new#new

are you using the waterblock from c1 or did you order a new one from syscooling?


I used both. Some from first  C1 waterblock is missing one screw hole for S5 blade, if you want to put blades on both sides of waterblock.

Hi,

I have some C1 bits on ebay UK atm. (05/09/2015)  - Hashboards, Beagleboard and cable kit.

I like the C1 - i have 1 running 24/7 on stock parts  - I wonder what the total sales were for the C1's - couldn't have been more than a few thousand units.



I offered   C1 full kit  for more than a month for 0.9BTC. Nobody wants them.
I sold eventually 1/2 C1 in  S3 housing for 0.4 BTC and 2x blades for parts  0.2 BTC Total 0.6BTC

But I have left  C1 housing  for next water cooled S5 .

I sold all of my 6 x C1  upgraded for  air-cooling miners or parts only.  4x 1TH/s miner and 2x 500GH/s miner +4 blades
3.2+0.45+0.4+0.4=4.45 BTCtotal       0.74 BTC piece.

But left 6 x C1 housings with 12x water blocks( 25USD piece).
5pc of them are already water-cooled S5. A quiet winter heater.

We will never know.  But I suspect it was a decent amount, no S3 launch.  But a lot of people wanted to try the water cooling (including myself).

Only way would be if someone went back and traced payments and made an estimate, but I don't see this happening.

And the parts system is officially up for sale - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12313300

Some parts like controller bitmain is out of so might be nice to have around if you have a C1.  Also upgraded pump nice to have with a C1.   Feel free to jump in thread and make an offer!

The main unit did sell.  Sorry to any others that were interested I only had 1 to sell.

Later today I will be putting a listing on market for those interested in parts.  I have one that run's 2 boards, was three until I decided to repaste them trying to get 4th again.   

But it has set on a table waiting for me to sell my working one as I wanted it as parts.  But I will be taking pictures and a little more detail (hopefully later tonigt).

i have 2 c1s and have problems like: one pump needs few on and off to start
                                                             pump A pumps less than pump B
                                                             closed the lid a bit tighter and the shit got cracked and now is leaking!
                                                             leaking starts where the pump and reservoir gets ''glued''
only pump problems!

The A pump you can try checking like i did, might be plastic inside stuck on the rotor, some models are different , mine had 3 holes so i could stuck into a fine screw driver to make it spin manually, some time it got very hard.

the B : i  think that you can glue whit a strong epoxy it should work if the reservoar is unglued , i still recommend buying new pumps you can maybe drive the two from 1 pump .


This syscooling are supposed to do 600l/h but some test i found shoed that they bearly do 200l/h.

my syscooling pump is giving up,

It kinda get stucks when powering, it runs when it's empty from water.

Any sorts of fix maybe ? it seems that it get to little power maybe not sure.

No it is a horrible pump.  That is why I replaced it.  They dry tested all of batch one pumps.   They posted a video once to open it up and clean out the plastic from dry testing.   But I have a feeling cleaning it  out will not fix it.

I used: http://www.ebay.com/itm/381066536924?_trksid=p2060778.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

i tried to open it, but there was some big chip under kinda hard to get into so just left it, it seems it's running now but yesterday it just gave up.

Might be a liquid cleaner maybe ?

I was looking at eheim pumps , i had a phobya but just sold it like 2 days ago thinking that the pump wouldnt give up so soon, so stupid of me  Tongue

If you were really lucky the plastic chips from those syscooling stopped it temporarily.  It is few that this was the problem so if you are then truly lucky.

Run it and you will know if pump starts to go again.  Make sure to put some towels or something incase it gives out, make sure if the pump looses liquid it's not going to hit anything important.  Sadly those syscooling pumps when they go out some leak which is a pain.

But run it and see is only way to know.

Yeah well it worked like you said,  on and off many times. but yesterday it died completly. so i whent to the storage to check out  what really was the problem.
I checked everything and noticed smal bits of plastic on the circulation so i decided to take of the pump and start it hit no coolant. it was stuck still so whit a screw driver i started to spin the wheel many times , while it was off.


After some minutes of spinning i connect it to power whit very little water.

So the problem was that there was plastic inside making contact whit the pusching wheel, i had to make it a clean , had it spinning wet , not dry, but "oiled" in water.

Now it seems to start it even got more power spinning it was very slow before this, but i will still buy a pump, trying to find a cheap quality one whit 1000L/H as i think the perfomance of syscooling is around 150-200 and not 600 as they stated .
