Sure in the 40mm or so size, but do they exist at the 140mm size?   

Man, if both fans on a S3 was doing 10,000 rpm, I would bolt that puppy to the floor because it is about to start taxiing for takeoff!!!

Boom!

S1-1 - 218 - 5hr - 437gh - 1HR Restarts
S1-2 - 250Mhz - 5hr - 466gh - 1/2hr restarts.

This is an increase of over 40GH on both miners for me!
I'm going to clock-up S1-1 and see if I see increases at 1/2hr intervals.

I encourage those experiencing degrading performance over time to do something similar. You lose less than 10 seconds of mining per restart.

I bough four at 0.68 each, I only hope I get lucky an get some coupons from them.

Didn't have the funds when they were at 0.64 the day before ordering.

Was already to buy 4 @ .64 now I'm $69 short on btc, doh!

I've installed three. Had various antennas, usually between 3-5dbi. All perform perfectly well, coverage about equal to that of any other wifi device.

oh thats cool about the wifi, I have ordered few of the kits so lets see how that goes.

anyone installed one yet ? what dBi antenna did you get and how good is the reception at what distance?

here you go man https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitmain-antminer-s3-support-and-overclocking-thread-699064

where can I find information on the over-clocking for the s3?

Those pigtails and antennas should work perfectly. Three out of four of my S3s are on Wifi with antennas and pigtails fitted, I have found drilling the hole for the RP-SMA antenna to be a bit of work though, those cases are remarkably thick and tough!

Just had a rather odd situation occur...
One of my B1 S3s, running latest firmware decided to go beep crazy. Normally I'll get a beep or two and it'l stop, but this time it wouldn't.
Syslog showed the following:

Issued a reset to CGMiner and it came back online, but anyone out there have any ideas what might have caused a USB issue on these? In theory it shouldn't be possible, as the whole USB infrastructure is on the mainboard (no loose plugs or anything).

Previous post several pages back.

One of the gas stations I drove by today had gas $.05 higher than the other gas stations. And this is after raising prices since last week! What are they trying to do, rip us off? How can I afford to drive to work if they are charging so much for gas!? They really need to rethink their pricing strategy and think about what they are doing to those of us who commute regularly and need to buy gas.

They do indeed exist, I used to have 1. This fan at 100% is actually as loud as an Aircraft engine, No joke

some report that as long as you have it close to your router it works without a antenna.
 

whats that wifi feature in the S3 ? can I use that instead of the LAN cable ? Or do I need something else to get it working?

A lot of people are having issues with 4 cables. I have 1 unit that is over-clocked to 250mhz hashing at 500GH/s with only 2 cables attached to the network port side of the unit, on a corsair CX500W. It has been doing well for a couple of days now.  The other unit will only run at 440GH/s at best,  and has been dropping hash rate on me every day or 2 until I reboot. I also has one blade that runs 4 degrees cooler than the other for some reason.  I may have to open it up and try to find out why.

The only retarded here is YOU...

all I am trying to ...is shed more light on what is going on...the FACTS...the TRUTH...

I bought B1 in first 2 minutes...but I am not buying anything right now...Did I say "BUY / DON"T BUY"...NO...

I said..."LOWER your price, BitMain"...because you are mining and it is not fair to your customers ...Capisco...

BTW...I don't neet to explain anything to you...feel free to do whatever you think...like...etc...

If you don't find any valuable info in my post(s) ...feel free to use "ignore"...

EDIT ...: as you CAN see...if you are not blind...I use "US"...not "me"...

BitMain is fine...Retards like you are NOT...

ZiG

the price is so high i will buy one from a reseller at a better price.

My bad...Corrected...I was so mad...

Still does NOT change the picture...Robbing us blind...

12000/400 =30 not 300, but I do agree they are over charging right now.

the problem is 440gh using 340 watts for .68 btc is the best price anyone offers.. on the bright side  when coins dropped to 562 used I purchased 1.4 btc.  i could sell  and grab a profit
