I expected better...

Yeahp, only a significant increase in BTC price will allow the BTC amount to come low enough. Why BITMAIN decided to peg prices to USD is beyond me....

Ssshhhhhh!

Man, I was hoping something a little more lower price wise for the S2.

At nearly $4k or over 6 BTC won't ever ROI.  

If undrervolt my s1 how many watt per gh will be have?

I wonder how low the clocks have to be dropped to reach the target voltage to stay at 1W/GH....
if its half the speed to meet 1W/GH, then each machine will have around 640 chips in it...

Which means S1 could be sold for half the price they are asking now. Based on chip density.

I wonder how easily the S2 will be oc'able ... knowing that its chips will be severely undervolted.

They said April 1st in the post.

Grate Job Bitmain!

We are taking the preorders for US Customers!

Howwww so nice

When it wil. Be available

How can it draw 1,000W and you are only supplying a 1000W PSU?    Won't the PSU overheat and trip?

Had the pleasure of seeing the prototype, its shiny


EDIT:

SUPER SECRET S2 PICTURE, NOW WITH EXTRA Tshirts

WAYYYYYY overpriced at 6btc each. It would be far more profitable to just buy 5xS1's right now....

LOL You make Neptune's pre order folks jealous  I am in

Bitmain Technologies Limited is proud to announce ANTMINER S2 that features 1TH/s Bitcoin Miner, consist of high-density chip chains and ultra low power consumption.

AntMiner S2 is using the state of the art BM1380 chip, targeting the best possible power efficiency. S2 is built into a 4U size box, and it will come with PSU manufactured by Enermax. S2 will be very convenient to deploy. S2 is still running quietly.

Since November of 2013, BM1380 has been proven to be the most effective IC on the 55nm process among all competitors, even comparable to the most Bitcoin Mining ICs developed on 28nm process nodes. Our first generation Bitcoin Miner, AntMiner S1, demonstrated low power consumption but a high performance.  Currently S1 is most popular miner for mining enthusiasts.  S1 is currently deployed in large binary trees structures within the private and public mining pools servicing 20.3% of the entire network hash rate.

The 1st Batch of AntMiner S2 will be shipped out on April 1st. AntMiner S2 will be available in the global market for a price of $3,899.
