Be patient.
Bitmain ALWAYS SHIPS!!!!

That being said, I ordered one on Sunday - shipped yesterday, I ordered another Monday - shipped today.

Be patient.

Hi I ordered and paid for two antminers yesterday, but I haven't received any email about confirmation or shipping or anything. On the login page it shows that payment is confirmed, but unshipped. Does that mean my order probably won't go out today (even though the price has dropped since I paid?)
''

Yep that's same for me. Also ordered two yesterday. Now in "Paid, Unshipped, Valid" status.

By the way, what type of ROI are you expecting on these. Asking since I'm relatively new to the Antminers S1s

S2 is coming within 7 days!? I do hope S2 will go with 28nm, otherwise we will hardly earn profits from them.  
S2 has been confirmed early April, and yes 28NM or 55NM with new design and cooling + power
Cheers

Hey guys,
Just wondering, what is the source for this S2 info?
Any links?

i have a short question, it would be really helpful, if somebody can answer this..

is this a good psu for the ants?



can't use

minimum 30A for 12V

if you found several PSU have two 12 Volt
for example
12 V1   24A
12 V2   15A
you can use caused Current is 24+15=39 A

crap...that psu above only has one 6 pin pie...well threre's another tethered to it, but it doesn't reach. I'mm guessing it wouldn't matter because the 2nd one would need it's own, right?

There other connector it has is a cpu molex...two four-in connectors with yellow on the clip side. Can this help me?
Do I simply extend the other tethered six pin

There's another sata cable that has for 4 pin flat molex...i have an adapter that can turn that into a six...should I use that?

What brand and model of psu?
If has a good amperage on the 12V line, maybe you can consider to put a molex->pci-ex

antminer S1 not include PSU(Power Supply Unit)
To easy choose PSU..

look Current is minimum 30A for 12 V
why minimum 30 A? this is answer:
a antminer S1 need 360W at voltage 12 V
you can check Current minimmum for one antminer S1= 360W/12V = 30 A
check in PSU about current in body PSU.

terrible advice. You need a PSU that can put out at least 450W on the 12V rail or you will have issues. Even PSUs with >500W on 12V sometimes cause issues if there is a voltage drop when at >90% power demand

Can someone please point me in the right direction for the best thread on how to power this puppy?

Just got the S1 today and also got the following power supply:

EVGA 600B 80PLUS Bronze Certified ATX12V/EPS12V Active PFC 600W Power Supply 100-B1-0600-KR
http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-80PLUS-Bronze-Certified-100-B1-0600-KR/dp/B00EON40CS/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1394461405&sr=1-1&keywords=power+supply

1) Am I going to need more than what it comes with?
2) I plan on buying another...could this power both or do i need to power another?
3) Is there a guide for dummies on how to hook up? I only have easy miners like avalons and such....I'm having a hard time understanding other instruction threads and they all give different advice

Thanks

Danny


You will need a paper clip to jumper the psu to turn it on.
No, you cannot power 2 AntminerS1's from a 600W psu.

All I have to do is the jumper? I don't have to cut and splice pci wires and all that?

No, becouse now S1 has two pci-ex

crap...that psu above only has one 6 pin pie...well threre's another tethered to it, but it doesn't reach. I'mm guessing it wouldn't matter because the 2nd one would need it's own, right?

Return it and buy a real[/] PSU.  Wink

alternatively, you can snip the head off the 8-pin ATX mobo connector and it will give you moe then enough wire leads to wire to the screw terminals on the unit

It tends to be an exponential curve so running half the watts usually returns more than half the hashing power as long as there is enough power for the chips to come on. The limiting factor for any home mining farm is the Amps you circuit breaker can carry. Wink

That is true for under-volting, not for under-clocking. Can the S1 be easily under-volted?
I you call soldering around the PCB easy.
that means no -.-

TBH, power isnt the issue, heat is Smiley   I have lots of power but winter is fading and i cant have my windows open all summer
