Sorry noob question:

Does this ship with an ethernet cable? Didn't see it on bitmaintech website.
Also as a backup, what's the recommended wifi antenna to use or its built into the board. If it gets too hot, I may move it to the window.

Thanks


They don't ship with an ethernet cable, and I just used pipe cleaners for my wifi antennas, but they have a spot where you can attach proper ones if desired,

Thanks

However we desperately need a 1 TH+ box soon, as the difficulty is at a point where it becomes unmanageable for the average retail miner to keep 10+ ants running in their house.  Hope bitmain has something in the works.

You wont have to wait long for the S2!

Won't have to wait long like BFL or more like this month?

Any price estimations?

we have to give major props to bitmain for  1) producing stable well designed hardware 2) well priced 3) solid track record of delivery as promised.

He single handily kept the asic hardware price down and prevent those shady outfits like BFL from continue to scam the bitcoin community. Right now there is absolutely no point ordering any of those preorders considering the price/GH ant is able to deliver.

BFL and those preorder companies must really hate him.

Totally agree with you

If before 2014 the only way to buy potential profitable asic was to place a preorder and took a leap of faith, now bitmain has completely changed the rules in the asic buisness.

Preorder, at least for me, currently is totally nosense.

Is someone looking to sell his coupons?

I have some coupons to sell if interested.


You have to select a coupon from a drop down at checkout, unless I'm mistaken.  I'm not seeing a way to transfer these, and it looks like it will only accept one-per purchase, so they aren't cumulative.

Can anyone verify this?

I've got a couple, if they are transferrable.  Has anyone successfully done that before?

Great. Customs is holding my package. Looks like I won't get it today....

I told myself I would not buy any more miners ... then Bitmain drops the price and puts a bunch of coupons in my account. Now I have another thash coming and not enough electricity to run it Cheesy
I'm in the same boat. Gonna have to call an electrician to get more power capacity put in.

New Coupons, OMG wheres the AA...Antminer-Anonymous... cant resist, must order more Roll Eyes i received 4 coupons and my last order was this morning. Before Price drop.

Yeah really. Not only is there a ridiculous price drop (I JUST paid 1.07 for another pair not 24 hours ago) but I log in to see EIGHT more coupons.
Yup. I have a problem.

They went crazy with the coupons! I have 2 left, need to mine 2 BTC before I can buy anymore :p

Corsair AX1200 works good for 2 and EVGA 1300G2 works perfectly with 3. OC'd these draw 400 watts.

Great! Thanks!

Just ordered two of these babies. Just about to order the PSUs. Should I get one Corsair 750 to run each or does the 600 work just as well? Plan to overclock. Alternately can I run them off a single 1200w psu?

Hopefully it can all arrive by the weekend. Wife won't be too thrilled with the extra heating in the apartment though. Hopefully I can send her a full BTC in 20 days to make up for it Tongue

Bitmain sure knows how to keep the druggies (us!) addicted and wanting more! A steady stream of the good stuff while waiting for the next big thing haha!  Cheesy

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
