Can anyone tell me if fan spinning at 3000rmp is faulty?
Few other ants fan spins at 1700 and only one is spinning at 3000rpm. Hashing stable with no issues.

room is air conditioned so ambient temp is low.

Some later version of S3 Fan rpm is high, I contacted bitmain and they said its normal.

Can you PM whole message from bitmain regarding this issue?

thanks in advance.

Hello Hello
yes great there is a new Antminer L1 coming

ANTMINER L1 https://bitmaintech.com/product.htm

What could it be...

L1 is probably for LTC, which I don't really care about.
Bitmain confirmed in another thread that they are testing S4 (which is s2 with s3 undervolted chips, I believe).
A month ago it would have made bigger difference, but we shall see.
I hope for 2TH, but if they stay with the same PSU (not 1300W), then 1.7-1.8Th is probably more realistic.

Actually, I am very interested in the L1 if it runs like the BTC brother (AKA standalone) I have had enough of configuring different miners on different builds of CG/BFG, and no, I dont consider Zen to be the same, I want to have full control of my miners.

Hi all, i have an s3 that will not hash and it has a red & green LED light that will not turn off. i have done a facotry reset, reflashed the firmware, checked ssh/putty settings...i am clueless as to what's up with it ? it was hashing fine until a few hours ago.

i am able to access the web interface, but the UI shows no frequency nor does it hash. anyone else experience this ? thanks

If you reflashed with the new firmware its necessary to select a frequency, save, restart before it will recognize the setting. Beyond that it may be an issue with the PSU being stuck in standby which would need the psu powered down and the jumper removed for about 20 seconds to allow the capacitor to bleed down and release the protection relay before reinstalling the jumper and powering back up.

problem solved--i think. apparently my Antec 1300w PSU went bad--weird. i put another PSU on, reflashed all, put the 6 pin PCI-e in the 2nd set of plugs that the s3, and presto i am mining again. this s3 has been such a problem child. thanks for the heads up with PSU troubleshooting. i never would have thought my 1300 platinum 80 plus antec would go kaput.

For sure a litecoin miner. Speed is in MH/s - opposed to GH/s on bitcoin miners

Well it does seem like an extremely high proportion of stale and duplicate work. I know this isn't related to hardware errors but there is one miner which seems to be producing a relatively high percentage of HW errors also. I didn't screenshot that as it's only about 1.6%.

You're misreading the graph. Hashrate and rejects have different scales, one on the left side, the other one on the right side. Under 1% of rejects is not high.

Ah, thanks for that. I guess I'm reading the numbers in the pop up info box wrong too? I've never used ghash.io before. Just out of interest, what difficulty should be set for S3 use on ghash.io? My ghash.io account defaulted to 1024 initially but I thought this to be too high, so set it to 256 like it was with vardiff on Eligius.

256 is fine and 1024 is ok too I think. If you go higher than that the hashrate chart will be choppy and if you go lower you might get bottlenecked by network and/or controller.

You need to match the stale/dup numbers against the number of diff 1 shares submitted. You are submitting ~300,000 shares per round and occasionally getting ~2000 shares rejected in some rounds... perfectly fine as far as I can see.

nice graphics and charts
