I don't know about those Spoondoodly guys. Only one of them looks to have a real beard.
Hmmm, seems like BITMAIN just used the controller and two hashing boards from the S4 
?
and made the S5 out of it.

ROFLMAO! What were you expecting chinese ingenuity?? new design?
I ordered 4 S3+ and one of them had a crooked cap that made smoke pour out of the unit, the 2nd DOA unit just made a spark when I plugged it in. That's a 50% defect rate out of the gate! There is nothing wrong with my power supply or electrical as everyone including bitmain is suggesting over and over to me. I used a 20 amp single breaker on each G2 EVGA 1300 with just 3 miners on it with stock PCI-E connectors that worked fine on all my other S3, which should be more than enough. I ran regular S3s on this setup since June. I am sorry, but bitmain has to do something to really restore my confidence here. I can understand the S3+ going bad after a few months, but 2 of right away out of the box? Even though I have the photos as evidence, its still feels like no one believes me, it MUST have been something I have done wrong and not anyone at bitmain. Very frustrating. I am sending them back, even after they see the smoke pouring out and the spark from the other unit, they probably will still want to blame me for it.
One word - SPONDOOLIES! Israeli made, no bullshit, just works.

no the chips are different. the s-5 is very efficient for power much better then the s-4.
I did a review for the s-5 and it is very close to the sp20.
2 s-5's are 900 shipped to my door in the USA and 2 sp20's are 1000 shipped to my door in the USA. You can do a lot of comparisons of the two.
For me in my home using about 10 pieces I give the sp20 a very small edge. For others the s-5 will be better.

That makes sense thanks for the info.
why does my Activity say - Activity: 28 - and never increases?
Updates about every 14 days.

Well I just ordered one S5 and I hope its going to payoff.
going to run it with two s3's. should equal an s4!!

300 + 135 to ship = 435 you may as well buy the s-5
yep. 2.56 S3's are required for same GH. =
$385
$135 shipping (for 2 only)
520 Total
vs
S5
$408
$47.90 shipping
455.90 Total
Include efficiency, it makes no sense to buy the S3's at a higher cost than the s5's. You are actually losing money.
$60,000 MOQ for the bulk S3+ units is insane.
make a pack of 25 units at $125 each and ill bite.

Will see if it works out in price. I think the main thing is the shipping, even if its pallet sized its going to have to go via air.
To return to the correct thread subject title.

[HOW DID THESE GET OUT OF THE FACTORY??
Cap that started filing the room with smoke:
Another one, clearly not inspected by anyone with eyes....

read this and sneezed out my cup of tea!
BRILLIANT !!! Bitmain - where to begin.......... you suck!
I just think it's funny BMT's way of saying ty to the little guys that keep them running is offering the MOQ of two units @ $149 per.
An MOQ of two @ $115 per would be nice but still sort of screws the little guy who's got just enough BTC saved for one unit.
5k$ ? That's closer to 58k$

If you want to greatly reduce the dust intake on the S3+, this might just be the item (to substitute with the front fan grill). http://www.amazon.com/Silverstone-Tek-Filter-Cooling-FF123B/dp/B00ARB5E8U/ref=pd_sim_e_3?ie=UTF8&refRID=17TF269TN9NWFT2XP716
I saw a new firmware. Any news about it?
Should have the bugs fixed, its the same as the beta firmware that's been in testing for the last few days.When I updated(Beta) my two S3(not +) I put them consistently at 500 G. I then messed around and did some frequency checking, and haven't been able to get back to that consistent 500 G. I'll update them now with the latest update.
