Do you know if it's possible to conect the S3 to a server power supply?If yes then how? (I'm talking about an IBM Bladecenter 39Y7352).It's kinda sad that they removed server support (they should have done it like AntMiner S1's).

Thank you!

Coming from the Black Arrow failboat, this is a walk in the park.  Cool I paid 7/6 so we'll see how long that takes.

okay fast question How do I get the gui to show my best share?  best share is zero/blank>

Both of mine show '0' Best Share as well ... no idea ... guess they might include it in a firmware update.


Depends where you're hashing.  GHash.io and BTCGuild don't show best share values in the status page.  Eligius and p2pool do.  Looks like bitsolo.net does as well.
I'm getting thousands of HW errors and 10% rejects. A reboot does nothing. How can I solve this problem?
Put up a screenshot of your status page and your config page.

Ant 1: 0.00028637079% HW errors at stock clocks getting 439GH/s on my local p2pool node
Ant 2: 0.00043407425% HW errors at stock clocks getting 441GH/s on my local p2pool node

First contact bitmaintech. Second check for any x or - in ASIC status.
Try removing the heatsink over ASICs and check for overuse/leak of thermal paste.
Clean it and reseat the heatsinks, don't forget to use thermal paste or thermal pad.
Hope you are running all at default, also post a screenshot of your status page.

'The right to privacy matters'
so quick numbers my evga 1300 is pulling about 665 watts at the plug to run 2 of these at standard clocks of 218.75 freq.

the fans are running 1800/1500 on the machine that gives me 447gh temps 37/39

the fans are running 1620/1320 on the machine that give me 440gh temps 39/39

room is 78f  or 25.5 c

pretty quiet. not silent

665watt/887gh = .749 watts a hash.  yet to use a plat psu and clock a little lower

I am running both machines at bitsolo.net they give me best share info. at btcguild.com no best share info.

bitsolo has me at number 7 with more then 600gh .  needs time to show correctly.

height = 167 mm

width = 134 mm

length = 340 mm

fans =  120 mm    the 140 mm quote from bitmaintech is a diagonal measurement of the fan grill's hole placement.

resellers beware do not advertise the fans as 140mm if you sell with a cc or paypal a nasty buyer would have a good chance of getting a refund over the fan size.

all in all right now the best gear available bar none.

It's 7:00 am in Hong Kong. It's the 19th there.  Bitmain did say batch 2 would be shipped by the 19th, so hopefully they will be working today and with any luck, they will get the rest of batch 1 out the door.  

Fingers crossed.

I've done a cursory look through the thread and on google and can't find any reliable information about batch 4.  Does such information exist?  As in, has batch 4 been announced?  Is it in the works?  Any news yet?

I don't think you will see anything on Batch 4 for a while. They are still struggling to ship Batch 1.

I don't think we'll hear anything about B4 until the DC/DC convert issue is fixed.

10PH came online between last night and today so I am guessing maybe a large chunk is Bitmain and a few others so more units probably shipping soon?

'The right to privacy matters'
okay:

  just under 13 inches long   fan to fan  the max number

 Just about 5 inches wide---------------------- this means the fans are 120mm

Just under 6 inches tall


I will do mm's when I find my mm ruler.

I will k-watt meter the two on my evga 1300 in a bit.


now here is a funny thing look at this screen shot/  the miner at bitsolo shows best shares.  the miner at btcguild does not

My Batch 1 order is Still unshipped, and now we are going into the weekend. It will be the 21st on Monday. That is after their Promised(?) date of July 17th for Batch 1. Any one heard them mention any type of compensation if they do not make there window?

Not to rain on your parade, but my units slipped about 7-10GH down from the first half an hour to 14 hour mark. Hopefully, yours are a little more stable.
